Kennedy Jr., the son of the late Robert F. Kennedy and a former US Senator, as well as the brother of President John F. Kennedy, comes from a family with deep ties to the Democratic Party in American politics.
However, it is not entirely surprising that Robert Jr. has aligned himself with the Republicans, given his outspoken opposition to health mandates and previous comments about Kamala Harris.
An article in the New York Post reported that Kennedy Jr. and Trump met in Milwaukee to discuss the potential endorsement of Trump by RFK Jr.

Kennedy Jr.’s apparent backing of President Trump may pose a challenge for Democrats, especially given the former President’s strong push for the 2024 elections.
If Kennedy Jr. exits the race, Trump could potentially gain an advantage with moderate voting blocs, potentially influencing the upcoming election cycle significantly.

At this point, all we can do is speculate and watch as events unfold to see if Kennedy Jr. will formally endorse Trump and what impact that decision may have in the future.
