Trump Reportedly Met With RFK Jr. To Discuss Endorsement 

Former President Donald Trump reportedly met with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Monday to broach the possibility of the independent presidential candidate endorsing him, Politico reported Monday, citing multiple people familiar with the matter.

The Kennedy campaign confirmed to the 🏢Daily Caller News Foundation that the two presidential candidates met to “discuss national unity,” though stopped shorted of corroborating reporting that Trump had sought Kennedy’s endorsement. Kennedy campaign spokeswoman Stefanie Spear reiterated to the DCNF that Kennedy would not be dropping out of the race.

“Yes, Mr. Kennedy met with President Trump today to discuss national unity, and he hopes to meet with leaders of the Democratic Party as well,” Spear said in a statement to the DCNF. “And no he is not dropping out of the race. He is the only pro-environment, pro-choice, anti-war candidate who beats Donald Trump in head-to-head polls.”

Kennedy is pulling an average of 13% in presidential polls as of July 15, according to an aggregate of polls put together by RealClear Polling. It is unclear what effect Kennedy’s continued candidacy will have on the race for the White House as some polls show him harming President Joe Biden’s performance in key swing states, while others show Kennedy drawing votes from Trump.
