Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Monday alleged in a social media post that allies of Donald Trump reached out to him about joining the Republican presidential ticket as Trump’s running mate, something the former president’s campaign has denied, The Hill reports.
Said Kennedy: “President Trump calls me an ultra-left radical. I’m soooo liberal that his emissaries asked me to be his VP. I respectfully declined the offer.”
