That was his initial position. RFK Jr. has since said that *everywhere* — not just in the swing states — people should vote the unity ticket (Trump/Vance/Kennedy) to make sure the vote is unambiguously for them. A vote for Trump carries the highest possibility of getting RFK in a position to make the changes so desperately needed.
Exactly. He asks that everyone who wants him to hold some government position, most likely Secretary of Health and Human Services, please vote for Trump/Vance. They’ve assembled quite a team with Tulsi Gabbard and Vivek Ramaswamy. I think Vinay Prasad would be an excellent addition to the department of HHS once Kennedy is in charge!
I don’t think Trump and RFK are expecting that he’ll be formally in the cabinet; that would require a Senate confirmation hearing with 2/3 vote—not a likely path for Bobby given the Pharma corrupted Congress..
Instead, I believe Trump has said he’ll create an advisory commission or council on national health to which he can appoint whomever he likes (similar to the National Security Council) and put RFK in charge of it to direct the executive branch’s response our nation’s health crisis.
I would love to see messaging that says "a vote for Kennedy is a vote for Trump in California and New York", but yeah. I can see why he's worried and has just asked everyone to vote for Trump. Especially with Harris threatening to curtail free speech....
You can vote directly for RFK jr if you want & Trump & RFK team says it won’t affect the main outcome….
Except,
if there is a dispute & he is in 3rd place. He could eventually be president if both Harris/Trump are somehow disqualified…

Hadn't heard about Vivek, but that's cool!
