Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. tried to arrange a meeting with Vice President Kamala Harris to secure a place in her potential administration or a Cabinet post in exchange for an endorsement, according to multiple reports.

The Washington Post first reported that Kennedy made the overture through intermediaries, just weeks after he proposed a similar arrangement to former President Donald Trump after the Republican National Convention last month. The pair spoke about the plan but did not reach an agreement on the matter.

Harris has not responded with an offer to meet, and her campaign has expressed no interest in doing so, the Post added.

Weve reached out repeatedly through the highest level intermediaries, Kennedy told the Times, which confirmed the reporting, on Wednesday night. Weve been told that they have no interest in talking with me.
