Robert F. Kennedy Jr. offered new details about his conversations with former president Trump in his first interview since dropping out of the race and endorsing him on Sunday.
Kennedy made the statement during an exclusive interview on “Fox News Sunday” with host Shannon Bream. He argued that his campaign had failed to gain ground due to “censorship” both by the media.
“It became clear to me that I did not have a path to victory,” RFK said. “16 months of censorship, of not being able to get on any network really except for Fox.”
“When Ross Perot ran, in the 10 months that he ran he had 34 appearances on the networks. I had two appearances in 16 months, so I was blocked out of the networks and I was blocked out of the debate. I had no path to victory.”
He went on to say that Trump had been “reaching out” to his campaign periodically, saying they had even spoken just “a few hours” after the assassination attempt against Trump in July.
“He invited me to form a unity government. We agreed that we’d be able to continue to criticize each other on the issues where we don’t agree, but these issues are so important and they’re a way of unifying the country,” RFK said.
