According to a report in The New Republic two days ago, Kennedy seems to be aware of his diminishing fortunes.
Last month, the independent candidate spoke with Donald Trump about getting a White House job in exchange for dropping out of the race and endorsing the convicted felon.
Kennedy also reached out to the Kamala Harris campaign with a similar proposition, only to be rebuffed, probably because he might actually help her by staying in the race.
Yesterday, POLITICO reported Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is in talks with the Trump campaign about a possible endorsement of the former president, according to four people familiar with the conversations granted anonymity to discuss the ongoing conversations. Trump donor Omeed Malik Tucker Carlson and Donald Trump Jr. have been facilitating conversations for months.
Kennedy has so far been the strongest third-party candidate in the race, and if he drops out it could dramatically reshape the electoral landscape in a tight election. . .In an email sent to campaign staff on Wednesday, campaign manager Amaryllis Fox Kennedy told staff to “hold tight” as the candidate considered his next move.
“There are several potential paths forward — not only two,” Fox Kennedy said. “So please, hold tight until you hear directly from him.”Supporters will have that opportunity on Friday in Phoenix, where Kennedy announced later Wednesday that he will address “the present historical moment and his path forward.”
