Donald Trump Jr. expressed enthusiasm for potentially integrating Robert F. Kennedy Jr. into a Trump administration, suggesting that Kennedy could be given a remarkable role to reform a government agency. In an interview with Glenn Beck, Trump Jr. proposed that Kennedy be assigned to a high-profile agency and “blow it up” as a way to drive impactful change.
“I think that’s what we need,” Trump Jr. stated on “The Glenn Beck Program.” “Even with some disagreements, Kennedy could be a valuable asset for this kind of unity.”
Kennedy’s running mate, Nicole Shanahan, hinted that their presidential campaign might end, possibly aligning with Trump’s team. Trump has also shown openness to this idea, commenting in a CNN interview that he would welcome Kennedy’s involvement if he exits the race.
“I didn’t know he was thinking about getting out, but if he is thinking about getting out, certainly I’d be open to it,” Trump said.
Trump Jr. praised Kennedy’s intelligence and views, acknowledging his potential contributions. Last Friday, Trump announced the leadership for his transition team, which includes Trump Jr. and Eric Trump as honorary chairs.
“The 2024 GOP Platform to Make America Great Again is a forward-looking agenda that will deliver safety, prosperity, and freedom for the American people,” the former president stated. “I have absolute confidence the Trump-Vance Administration will be ready to govern effectively on Day One.”
