Trump on Possibilities of an RFK Jr endorsement of Trump —

"He's a brilliant guy he's a very smart guy I've known him for a long time 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"

On Friday we will learn if RFK Jr is also open to it, with some speculating that RFK would make a great head of Trump's CIA, which would be ironic considering what the CIA did to JFK...

But, you gotta read this from WaPo article a few days ago:

RFK jr. sought a meeting last week with Democratic nominee Kamala Harris to discuss the possibility of serving in her administration, perhaps as a Cabinet secretary, if he throws his support behind her campaign and she wins, according to Kennedy campaign officials.

However

Harris and her advisers have not responded with an offer to meet or shown interest in the proposal, say people familiar with the conversations.

RFK Jr. is playing both sides, leaving the door open for alliances with Trump or Harris. His next move could dramatically reshape the political landscape.

He's not that smart, imo. He's gone to Dems but they didn't entertain him at all. He now have only one way and that's to be rooting for Trump!

This would be a big deal for Trump. I think RFK is only taking votes from Trump at this point.

I don't understand why did he go to DEms? Dems are too proud and so much self centred that they even forget USA is a democracy!

Because RFK was a dem? Yes, yes, they forgot, that’s why an authoritarian Trump in the office makes sense, right?

I'm not thinking about Trump but the insult that RFK had to bear for asking a place among his peers. They ignored him because he went against their vaccine propoganda?

I would honestly like it if Kennedy was Speaker of the House or something in Trumps admin. I know too good to be true, but I think it would be a pretty strong team.

Unfortunately, I do think he should back out and support Trump - as this election is going to be crazy close between Kamala and Trump.

He's infact going to support Trump. But, I'm little suspicious about Speaker of the House but he would be given a very big role if Trump wins.

RFK Jr's political maneuvering is intriguing as he is reportedly considering both a collaboration with Trump and a role in a possible Harris administration. His openness to both sides raises questions about his ultimate goals. An alliance between Trump and RFK Jr, especially with RFK Jr possibly running the CIA, would be a surprising and ironic twist given his family's history.

After all he's a politician and like others he also has to first think about his profits.

Its a shame that he is giving up. "Kennedy and Trump have grown warmer toward each other in recent months after initial attacks earlier in the campaign. A prominent vaccine skeptic, Kennedy has frequently criticized Trump for his handling of the Covid-19 pandemic and his implementation of Operation Warp Speed, the program to accelerate the manufacturing of Covid vaccines. Trump previously labeled Kennedy a member of the “radical left” and attacked Kennedy for his environmental activism." War always makes strange bedfellows!

Everything's possible in love, war and politics!

I suspect Vance has a big role in getting them closer!

Im really surprised. But it would be nice if he gets a high position in the cabinet. VP would be nice.

Can you imagine if Trump put Kennedy in charge of cleaning up the CDC and FDA?

34 sats \ 0 replies \ @Coinsreporter OP 22 Aug

This should be! I can clearly visualise a friendship for lifetime between Trump and kenedy. Together, they'll be cleaning up a lot of things.

No, but I can imagine him cleaning other things like toilets 👍

I saw RFK with Hoskinson lately. At first I thought this was some AI generated scam, but no -- that happened and sorta diminished him in my eyes...

Where does Harris and co get their confidence from? Why do they even get up in the morning? They dont seem to be doing anything right?
