Robert F Kennedy Jr, the independent US presidential candidate, is seriously considering abandoning his campaign to join forces with Republican rival Donald Trump. According to Kennedy’s running mate Nicole Shanahan, their decision to reconsider their independent bid would depend on whether they believed it would be beneficial to their goals, which include reversing the chronic disease epidemic, ending the war machine, cleaning corporate influence out of government, and promoting environmental advocacy. Shanahan emphasized that they are willing to talk to leaders from any political party to achieve their objectives. Kennedy’s team is currently weighing their options and considering the possibility of a “unity party” with Trump.

In an interview with Impact Theory, Shanahan floated the possibility of Kennedy and Trump teaming up, citing the risk of drawing support from would-be Trump voters and potentially clearing the way for Democrats Kamala Harris and Tim Walz to win the November election. Kennedy’s independent bid has generated significant attention, despite his low polling numbers, with his anti-vaccine stance and misinformation campaigns sparking controversy. Trump has already expressed interest in Kennedy’s healthcare policies, which has led to discussions within the Kennedy camp about the possibility of a unity party with Trump.

A decision to abandon the independent bid and join Trump would likely be met with resistance from some quarters, given Kennedy’s family history in the Democratic party and his controversial views on vaccines. However, it remains to be seen whether Kennedy will ultimately take this route. Shanahan did not specify when a decision would be made, but it is clear that Kennedy’s team is seriously considering their options and exploring the possibility of a unity party with Trump.

Kennedy, 70, is facing an uphill battle to qualify for the presidential ballot in many states, but his anti-vaccine stance and misinformation campaigns have generated significant attention, including Trump’s interest in his healthcare policies. Kennedy’s team has not been in talks with Harris, according to Shanahan, but it is clear that they are open to working with leaders from any political party to achieve their goals. In the end, Kennedy’s decision will depend on whether he believes joining Trump’s campaign would be beneficial to his goals and the citizens he is trying to represent.
