RFK Jr. Weighs In On Possibility Of 2028 Presidential Bid

An organizing call by Kennedy's super PAC helped fuel the talk.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. doused rumors about his political future by announcing he won’t be seeking the presidency in 2028.
Kennedy began a 2024 run as a Democrat, pivoted to an independent bid and then parlayed an endorsement of Trump into a gig as Health and Human Services secretary.
“Let me be clear: I am not running for president in 2028,” Kennedy wrote Friday on X. “My loyalty is to President Trump and the mission we’ve started. ...We’ll keep moving forward, we’ll keep delivering wins, and no smear campaign will stop us.”
Kennedy attributed the rumors to “DC lobby shops” looking to destroy his relationship with President Donald Trump and calling them a “flat-out lie.”
Kennedy, the scion of a Democratic family dynasty, has been the subject of suspicion among MAGA figures over his loyalties, The Washington Post reported.
"Of course, your family knows how to push your buttons — they installed them."
