Jesse Ventura Says He Would Join a Trump Ticket

• http://www.truthrevolt.org, Sarah Fisher

"If Donald Trump were to ask me to be his running mate, I would give it very serious consideration because anything to break up the status quo of this country," Ventura told CBS affiliate WCCO. "This country needs to be shaken up. It needs to be shaken to its very core, and Donald Trump is doing that."

Said Ventura, "My advice to him at this point would be, 'Don't you dare back down, cause if you back down now, you're finished,'" Ventura said. "They tell you defense wins Super Bowls, but that's not presidential. Offense can win the presidency."

Ventura sees his addition onto the ticket as a help angering Republicans, "We've been friends for about 25 years, so I don't know if it's in the cards or not, but it just went through my head, 'Boy would that ever get the Republicans angry,'" Ventura said.

Trump visited the Twin Cities back in 2000 and Ventura came out in support of a Trump candidacy at that time. "He hasn't announced himself as a candidate for president yet, but I will say this: I certainly hope that he does," Ventura said on Jan. 7, 2000.
