Is Trump Offering RFKJr. a Spot In His Cabinet?

The rumor goes that Trump is offering RFKJr. the job of Secretary of Health and Human Services.

One one hand, RFKJr. is a leftist and would push for Moar Socialized Medicine.

On the other hand, he'd be aggressive in fighting Big Pharma.

ABC "News:"

Former President Donald Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. spoke multiple times in the span of a few days this month, multiple people familiar with the conversations told ABC News, including an in-person meeting in Milwaukee during the Republican National Convention where the two presidential candidates discussed ways Kennedy could be involved in a second Trump administration.

At least one idea floated, according to two people with knowledge of the talks, was for Kennedy, a vaccine skeptic who speaks often about the perils of chronic disease, to oversee the Health and Human Services Department under a possible Trump administration.

According to one source, the in-person meeting, which took place the Monday of the convention, never reached a point where Trump and Kennedy had a deal in place for Kennedy to exit the race and endorse the former president in exchange for a role in the administration. Rather, it was an "informal," "free flowing" conversation, the source said.

I don't know if RFKJr. has any interest in such a deal. Especially with the Democrat Party in such disarray -- when Kamala flops, who knows, maybe RFKJr. would have an actual chance of winning. (I mean, not really, but he could think that.)

It would be a big get, but I don't think Trump is going to get it.
