Actually it seems a bit more murky than that... "members of the Kennedy campaign" confirmed to WaPo and others that he was trying to meet with Kamala to make a deal, but then the next day he posted a tweet denying that he was ever considering it.
Could be "his campaign" did it without asking him first. Or "members of the campaign" who wanted to undermine him. Or perhaps he really did for his own reasons, but denied after backlash. I sure don't know the guy to be able to say!
And if he doesn’t choose to drop out and endorse Trump, has he created more of a ‘Trump-like, but because of lofty principles must continue on, so vote for me because of the nobleness of my sacrifice’ perception?
If it’s true that Trump has teased a position in his administration and R.F.K., Jr. is out there saying he’s been promised a cabinet position, that’s very problematic. If R.F.K., Jr. is negotiating, offering his voters in exchange for a cabinet position and Trump doesn’t trust him for that and says, no, what then?
What if it is a matter of how to most damage Trump; as an inside obstacle or a vote splitter?
The drama has been created. Everyone is watching and waiting.
He offered his endorsement to KAMALA for a spot in her cabinet FIRST. She turned him down. That's how it "squares."
Now that is a lie. He never offered to endorse Kamala and immediately called it out as a lie.
Don't lie about people you don't like. I HATE that phony Trump, but I would never stoop so law as to lie about him.

As much as I've read about RFK and his intractable hatred of the Deepstate that assassinated his father, I doubt this story deeply.
But who knows? Could be.
