Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he is open to the idea of replacing President Joe Biden on the Democratic presidential ticket following his disastrous debate performance on Thursday.
Speaking with Chris Cuomo on News Nation, Kennedy was asked if he could solve the party’s problems.
“Would you be open to talking to them if they reached out to you?” Cuomo asked Kennedy.
RFK.Jr responded:
“Of course I would talk to them.”
“It would put me on the ballot with nobody trying to get me off.”
Kennedy hosted his own debate on Thursday after not being invited to CNN’s debate because he did not meet the network’s electorate threshold.

Newsweek reported:
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. addressed the possibility of replacing President Joe Biden as the Democratic nominee.
Kennedy, who previously challenged Biden in the Democratic primary before changing his party affiliation to independent, was pressed by NewsNation’s Chris Cuomo about whether he would be open to replacing Biden as the nominee.
Cuomo said Biden is “in freefall” and that Kennedy, being the Democratic nominee, could “really solve their problems and yours at the same time.”
He asked:
“Would you be open to talking to them if they reached out to you?”
