BREAM: “It’s a good unifying theme that I think a lot of people could get around, it’s how we get there that’s always the devil is in the details. Have you all negotiated over or talked about a cabinet position, another position within a Trump government, in exchange for your endorsement?”
Kennedy JR.: “No. There’s been no commitments. You know, I met with President Trump, with his family, with his closest advisors, and we just made a general commitment that we are going to work together.”
BREAM: “What about the states where you are trying to get off of a number of swing state ballots to say, ‘I’m going to stay on a number of state ballots, but in the swing states I’m gonna try to throw myself and ask my supporters,’ or at least you’re telling them, ‘Think about supporting President Trump.’ Did you negotiate over which states you would try to withdraw from?”
Kennedy JR.: “Yeah, I mean, we all knew which states they were. There’s basically 10 swing states where my presence in the race would have helped Vice President Harris and would have harmed President Trump. So I’m going to get off the ballot in those states and then we are going to stay on the ballot in 30 states and, you know, I’m encouraging people to vote for me in those states. Those are states where the votes — they are either all-red or all-blue states where their votes are not going to change the outcome of the race. But in the states where I would have been a spoiler, I’m going to get out. That’s about 10 states.”
