Impartial presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. introduced Wednesday that he’ll “address the nation” Friday from Phoenix, Arizona. The nation, which has barely seen that Kennedy is working for president, will in all probability ignore that too, even if it seems he’ll be ending his marketing campaign.
ABC Information and The Washington Put up each report that sources near Kennedy say he’ll not solely drop his marketing campaign however endorse Donald Trump. The Put up stories that there have been “advanced discussions” between the 2 groups, together with “multiple phone conversations and at least one in-person meeting” between Trump and Kennedy.
The timing and site of Kennedy’s announcement appears hardly a coincidence. Only a few hours after the tackle, Trump will maintain a rally in close by Glendale, Arizona. Possibly Trump thinks he can pull off a giant shock by having Kennedy present up at his rally, to compete with Vice President Kamala Harris’ shock appearances on the Democratic Nationwide Conference on Monday and Tuesday. A person can dream, I suppose.
Earlier this week, Kennedy’s working mate, Nicole Shanahan, form of spilled the beans, saying on a podcast that the marketing campaign was deciding between pushing on (and dropping) or shutting down and possibly becoming a member of Trump.
“There’s two options that we’re looking at, and one is staying in, forming that new party, but we run the risk of a Kamala Harris and Walz presidency because we draw votes from Trump,” Shanahan mentioned on the podcast “Impact Theory.” “Or we walk away right now and join forces with Donald Trump and, you know, we walk away from that and we explain to our base why we’re making this decision.”
Why is Kennedy making this choice? In addition to his lack of an actual marketing campaign, that’s. Most likely, it’s his ploy to get a job in a possible Trump administration.
Based on CNN, his marketing campaign made overtures to the Harris marketing campaign “to arrange a meeting about a possible role in her administration if he drops out of the race and endorses her.” The Harris marketing campaign was not .
“I think it is a strategic mistake for them. That’s my perspective,” Kennedy instructed the Put up. “I think they ought to be looking at every opportunity. I think it is going to be a very close race.”
Bless his little coronary heart, he thinks his endorsement will seal the deal.
Trump apparently buys that concept, or a minimum of, he’s keen to indulge Kennedy. “I like him, and I respect him,” Trump instructed CNN Tuesday when requested if he would take into account giving Kennedy a Cupboard appointment.
“He’s a brilliant guy. He’s a very smart guy. I’ve known him for a very long time,” Trump continued. “I didn’t know he was thinking about getting out, but if he is thinking about getting out, certainly I’d be open to it.”
Trump can have him. They deserve one another.
Donate to Kamala Harris’ marketing campaign as we speak.
