In a conversation with Glenn Beck, Donald Trump Jr. discussed the possibility of his father joining forces with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
“The endorsement from RFK, do you think that’s coming?” Beck asked.
“Listen, I hope so. You know, I think RFK, I think he’s a smart guy. I think he’s actually got very good views on certain things. I think there’s other things, you know, we’re going to disagree with him on. I think it shows sort of a unity against, literally, you know, you mentioned it before I hopped on, about the communism we are up against,” Trump Jr. said.
“I love the idea of giving him some sort of role in some sort of major three letter entity or whatever it may be and let him blow it up,” he continued.
“I think that’s what we need. And so I think that kind of unity, even where there may be certain disagreements on certain things, I think he could be a really great asset for that. I think he could bring people together and I think it shows a strong opposition to what we are up against, which is just abject insanity,” he added.

Trump Jr.’s comments follow reports that RFK Jr. will drop out of the presidential election this week and endorse Donald Trump.
Alex Jones said he “confirmed” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. would drop out of the election and endorse Donald Trump for president this Friday.
DEVELOPING: RFK Jr. Will Endorse President Trump Friday, Alex Jones Claims
“I was able to confirm about an hour ago that RFK Jr. is going to be endorsing President Trump this Friday in Los Angeles,” Jones said Tuesday evening.
“Also— Alex Jones reveals RFK Jr. is in consideration for Attorney General and other Cabinet positions,” Jones wrote.
“I was given other details, but I’m not going to give those out about how they’re going to do it at this point. This is from inside the RFK Jr. campaign from a very, very trusted source,” he continued.
“I also had sources very close to his campaign, high up, that had told me that he had been gunning for the head of the EPA or the head of the NIH or even the attorney general slot that his father, Robert F. Kennedy, senior had,” he added.

Mainstream media also reports that RFK Jr. plans to drop out and intends to endorse Trump for president.
Per ABC News:
Sources tell ABC News that Kennedy plans to endorse Donald Trump -- but when asked directly by ABC News if he will be endorsing the former president, Kennedy said, "I will not confirm or deny that."
"We are not talking about any of that," he said.
Sources cautioned the decision is not yet finalized and could still change, with one source adding that Kennedy's hope is, in part, to finalize things quickly in order to try to blunt momentum from the Democratic National Convention.
One possible scenario being discussed is for Kennedy to appear on stage with Trump at an event in Phoenix on Friday, though the sources cautioned that Kennedy's thinking could always change and sources close to Trump say no plan for Friday is finalized.
