3. Why Jerry Falwell Jr. says he turned down Trumps Cabinet position

Falwell said Trump asked for a six-to-eight year commitment, but he felt he could only promise to serve for two.

“In all candor, we could’ve worked something out on the term for the secretary post,” he said, “but the family really didn’t want me to go.”

Falwell is a lawyer but his experience in higher education has been mostly at the university founded by his late father, Moral Majority leader Jerry Falwell.

Falwell said Trump planned to divide the secretary of education role in half. The secretary position would be responsible for colleges and universities and a separate official would oversee kindergarten through 12th grade.
