Steve Bannon: RFK Jr. would be "an excellent choice" as Donald Trump's VP candidate

Steve Bannon believes Democrat Robert F. Kennedy Jr. would be "an excellent choice" as Donald Trump's vice presidential candidate.

Kennedy, the nephew of the late President John F. Kennedy, formally announced his candidacy last Wednesday and will attempt to pose a challenge to incumbent President Joe Biden—who on Tuesday is expected to formally announce his reelection campaign.

An NBC News poll published Sunday shows that 70 percent of Americans, including 51 percent of Democrats, do not want Biden to run for a second term. The same poll shows that 60 percent of Americans, including a third of Republicans, don't want current frontrunner Trump to run for president again in 2024.

"Someone asked about Robert F. Kennedy and the great speech at Hillsdale (a college in Michigan where Kennedy spoke last month during a seminar attacking 'Big Pharma') and what did I think about his prospects," Bannon said during his War Room podcast.
