RFK Jr. floated a job in a Trump White House as he weighed endorsing Trump
SUMMARY
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recently held talks with former President Donald Trump about endorsing his campaign and potentially taking a senior role in a second Trump administration, overseeing health and medical issues. The discussions began shortly after an assassination attempt on Trump at a rally on July 13th. Although no agreement was reached, sources noted concerns within Trump’s camp about the implications of such a promise. Kennedy stated his openness to dialogue: “I am willing to talk to anybody from either political party who wants to talk about children’s health and how to end the chronic disease epidemic.” He also criticized the Democratic National Committee, stating, “Nobody from the DNC, high or low, has ever reached out to me in 18 months.” Kennedy and Trump discussed possible roles for Kennedy, but his strong stance against vaccines raised concerns. Despite the talks, Kennedy remains committed to his independent campaign.
