Nicole Shanahan, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s running mate, revealed on a podcast that they are contemplating either joining Donald Trump's campaign or forming a third party. This decision aims to mitigate the risk of a Kamala Harris presidency, which Shanahan views unfavorably.

Shanahan accused the Democratic Party of sabotaging their campaign through various tactics, including legal challenges and internal disruptions. She emphasized the importance of exploring a potential alliance with Trump, citing shared interests in policy areas like chronic disease.

Kennedy has expressed willingness to engage with leaders from any political party to further his campaign goals. Shanahan's comments suggest a strategic pivot as they navigate the complexities of their independent campaign.
