In one poignant part of his speech, Kennedy revealed Trump had offered him a prominent role in his administration.
“Last summer, it looked like no candidate was willing to negotiate a quick end to the Ukraine war, to tackle the chronic disease epidemic, to protect free speech and our constitutional freedoms, to clean corporate influence out of our government, or to defy the neocons and their agenda of endless military adventurism,” Kennedy said.
“But now, one of the two candidates has adopted these issues as his own, to the point where he has asked to enlist me in his administration. I’m speaking, of course, of Donald Trump.”

“Instead of vitriol and polarization, I will appeal to the values that unite us, the goals that we could achieve if only we weren’t at each other’s throats. The most unifying theme for all Americans is that we all love our children,” RFK stated.
“If we all unite around that issue now, we can finally give them the protection, the health, and the future that they deserve. Thank you all very much.”
