Donald Trump Turned Down Presidential Offer

Donald Trump turned down the chance to run for U.S. President in next year's election - because he'd hate to give up his current job.
The billionaire was approached by the Independent Party to become their candidate, but said no.
He also reveals he'd hate to run against close friends Hillary Clinton and Rudy Giuliani.
Trump tells talk show host Larry King, "An independent party - the Independent Party wanted me to run for president and I ultimately decided I like what I'm doing. But there's no reason for that now. You really have some very good candidates. And particularly I say because I know them, Rudy and Hillary. I think you really have some good candidates. I think you have two people, and, again, very different people. But I think they both would do a good job."
