Former president takes aim at independent rival and running mate
-
Former president Donald Trump is sharpening his attacks on independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr, as new polls show an overlap between their core supporters.
In a series of posts on his Truth Social platform on April 26, Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, took aim at Mr Kennedy and his running mate Nicole Shanahan, a wealthy Silicon Valley lawyer and investor.
"RFK Jr is a Democrat 'plant, a radical left liberal who's been put in place in order to help crooked Joe Biden, the worst president in the history of the United States, get re-elected," Trump wrote.
Trump, who had privately discussed the idea of Mr Kennedy as a running mate, echoed what Democrats have been saying for months about Mr Kennedy's candidacy that it could swing the election. He also appeared to be adopting a new derisive nickname for him.
