Former Fox News host Eric Bolling on Sunday denied that he is in talks with the White House for an administration position.

Bolling told CNN that comments he made last week about working for President Trump Donald John TrumpBubba Wallace to be driver of Michael Jordan, Denny Hamlin NASCAR team Graham: GOP will confirm Trump's Supreme Court nominee before the election Southwest Airlines, unions call for six-month extension of government aid MORE were spurred by the massive government spending deal he claims the president was forced to sign.

“I was so infuriated when I saw that big $1.3 trillion omnibus bill, this massive bill. Donald Trump wanted funding for the wall,” Bolling said on "Reliable Sources."

“There was a drop in the bucket funding for the wall and he got pushed, that was thrown on him."

Bolling said last week that he would be willing to work for Trump for as little as $1 if it meant he could work with the president to help achieve his policy goals.

I’d work for a single US $1 to help drain the swamp, plug the leaks, build the wall with Pesos, lower taxes, build infrastructure, protect #2A and save some parents from the scourge of opioids.

But that would mean working directly with POTUS, not near him. https://t.co/g8QvJt4J2L — Eric Bolling (@ericbolling) March 22, 2018

Bolling, who has been a close ally of the president, said he’s had multiple discussions with the president about the opioid crisis following his son’s death due to an accidental overdose.

He was fired from Fox News last year after being suspended for allegations that he sent lewd messages to female co-workers.
