Trump Says He ‘Probably Would’ Give RFK Jr. A Role In His Administration If He Gets His Endorsement

Former President Donald Trump told CNN’s Kristen Holmes this week that he “probably would” put RFK Jr. in his administration if the independent candidate endorsed him.

“We would love that endorsement because I’ve always liked him,” Trump said of RFK Jr.

“Would you? Would you also consider putting him in the administration?” Holmes asked.

“You’re asking me a very unusual question. I haven’t been asked that question yet. I like him a lot. I respect him a lot. I probably would if, something like that would happen. He’s, very different kind of a guy. Very smart guy. And, yeah, I would be honored by that endorsement,” Trump replied.

“So John and Sarah, I mean, we haven’t heard that from Donald Trump yet. And reminder that earlier in the day yesterday, Nicole Shanahan, RFK Jr’s running mate, had said that he would, RFK junior was considering potentially dropping out and endorsing Donald Trump. And Trump says I might welcome him. I welcome that endorsement. I might even welcome him in my own administration. So, pretty newsy there with Kristen Holmes,” noted Alayna Treene.

Anchor Sara Sidner concluded, “That is very interesting, even that he asked the Democrats for the same thing at some point. I don’t think they gave him the time of day.” Sidner was referring to reports that RFK Jr. had reached out to both the Trump and Harris campaigns to discuss an endorsement in exchange for a role in their administrations.
