Robert Kennedy Jr.'s running mate suggests ticket may drop out, join forces with Trump to stop Harris — Fox News

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s running mate Nicole Shanahan admitted that the independent candidate may suspend his camapign and endorse former President Trump.

I also suspect that RFK jr and his running mate might have a deal worked out with Trump along those lines to obtain a spot in his Administration

There are a few people out there who are disaffected by both parties’ nominees. I wonder if this plan could tilt the election slightly in favor of Trump

I don’t know. But it isn’t likely to hurt.

I'd vote for Kennedy if I thought he could win. Love to see him in a Trump administration to restructure the FDA, CDC and NIH. He'd do a great job and reform the significantly crooked public health agencies.

But who says Bobby, Jr. did make any such overture to anyone in Kamalalala’s camp?

But who says Bobby, Jr. did make any such overture to anyone in Kamalalala’s camp?

I thought he already did but they told him to go to hell. I do not know which is better or worse for Trump, if JFK Jr stays in it or not. Quite honestly, my give a shit factor is a bit low these days. e may or may not get a job in Trump's cabinet (if Trump wins of course) but at any rate I'd think his days as a democrat would be over.

 

[Kevin_Kennedy]

Doubt it would/will have much of any effect at all.

 

[kyzr]

Doubt it would/will have much of any effect at all.

In a tight race I'll take all the percentage points I can get.

According to which reliable source?

Yep. I bet he doesn’t care.

I do think, given what has transpired over just the past 60 years, that JFK would have switched to the GOP.

 

[Kevin_Kennedy]

Where is there a critical mass of Kennedy voters where it could make a difference, even assuming that Kennedy voters would be transferable based on a Kennedy endorsement? I don’t see it. Maybe Kennedy voters in general aren’t like me, but if the candidate I supported turned around and endorsed Trump it wouldn’t make me think better of Trump but worse of that candidate.

Some people, like me, rhink that a candidate endorsing Trump would make us think better of that candidate. (Even taking political bargaining into account.)

info is leaking out that RFK Jr is considering dropping out of the race and endorsing Trump ! given the fact that RFK Jr is polling near the double digit mark this could be a huge game changer .. its also been reported that RFK Jr reached out to the Harris campaign and was rudely rebuffed .. the Dems dirty attempts to keep him off the ballots may have just backfired BIGGLY !

CNN —
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s campaign reached out to Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign to arrange a meeting about a possible role in her administration if he drops out of the race and endorses her, a Kennedy campaign official and a Democratic official told CNN.

The approach from Kennedy’s team occurred last week, and no meeting between the two candidates materialized, the Kennedy campaign official told CNN.


I made the 'go to hell' part up. Wouldn't be surprised if that was the case though. Yeah, I know CNN ain't that reliable.

I do think, given what has transpired over just the past 60 years, that JFK would have switched to the GOP.

A republican Kennedy, what is the world coming to? LOL, wonder if he runs in 2028 and for which party?

 

[Kevin_Kennedy]

Sure, but were you already voting for Trump? We’re talking about voters who are choosing to vote for a candidate they know cannot win, probably because of how much they dislike the two major party candidates. Is that the type of person to just go along with being told to actually go ahead and vote for this candidate that you don’t like? Maybe. Certainly some will, but how many?

You again miss the point. CNN is not the reliable source. It is just a conveyor of alleged information from supposedly “reliable sources.”

I didn’t ask which news outlet reported it. I requested the allegedly “reliable sources” the news story was based on.

Still no response.

A republican Kennedy, what is the world coming to? LOL, wonder if he runs in 2028 and for which party?

Yeah. As a devout Democrat, it is unlikely that JFK would have become a Republican. But … there are still some possibly Republican Kennedys.

I think that Bobby, Jr is too old already to be a contender. His prospects dim for more than some Appointment To The Court Of St. James.

Harris and her team seem awfully confident. It's weird.

 

[BackAgain]

Sure, but were you already voting for Trump?

Obviously. Why?

We’re talking about voters who are choosing to vote for a candidate they know cannot win, probably because of how much they dislike the two major party candidates. Is that the type of person to just go along with being told to actually go ahead and vote for this candidate that you don’t like? Maybe. Certainly some will, but how many?

I don’t know the numbers. But again. So what? Still need the votes.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

Harris and her team seem awfully confident. It's weird.

It's strange given polling and attention I've met very few people who support her.

 

[Kevin_Kennedy]

Obviously. Why?

I don’t know the numbers. But again. So what? Still need the votes.

The why is answered in the next part. You’re not a Kennedy voter, and don’t have the mindset of a Kennedy voter. So yes, Kennedy endorsing the candidate you already like seems good to you, but how will it feel to actual Kennedy voters? I don’t know the numbers either, I’m speculating. I don’t know, but I speculate that the numbers won’t be there to change the electoral votes in any meaningful sense for Trump. I could be wrong.
