Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that he has “no plans to endorse” Vice President Kamala Harris after he recently attempted to set up a meeting with her.

Kennedy’s campaign manager, Amaryllis Fox Kennedy, told ABC News that neither Kennedy nor she had received a response from the Harris team after reaching out to them.
According to Amaryllis, the reach out attempt was the most recent in an unsuccessful months-long process by the Kennedy campaign to get in touch with Democrat leaders.
The Washington Post also claimed on Wednesday that RFK Jr. wanted to discuss the prospect of joining Harris’s cabinet in exchange for an endorsement to help her “cross the finish line” in November.
Amaryllis Kennedy did not dispute the details of the story and told ABC News, “Bobby has always been willing to meet with both parties to discuss the possibility of a unity government.”
On Thursday morning, Kennedy posted on X that he has “no plans to endorse Kamala Harris for President.”
“I do have plans to defeat her,” he added.
Lis Smith, an advisor to the Democratic National Committee, bitterly responded to Kennedy’s statement.
“No one has any intention of negotiating with a MAGA-funded fringe candidate who has sought out a job with Donald Trump in exchange for an endorsement,” said Smith.
