Mr. Kennedy, who ended his independent campaign for president and endorsed Mr. Trump on Friday, described his transition role briefly in an interview that aired Monday. 'I've been asked to go on the transition team, you know, and to help pick the people who will be running the government,' Mr. Kennedy told Tucker Carlson.
Ms. Gabbard, a former congresswoman who represented Hawaii and left the Democratic Party after her 2020 presidential run, endorsed Mr. Trump on Monday and has been helping him with informal debate preparation sessions in recent weeks.
Both Mr. Kennedy and Ms. Gabbard spent most of their public life as progressive Democrats. Only four months ago, Mr. Trump was calling Mr. Kennedy a Radical Left Lunatic who was far more LIBERAL than anyone running as a Democrat.
It's unclear what exactly she and Mr. Kennedy will do in their transition roles, but they will join Mr. Trump's sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, as well as his running mate, Senator JD Vance, as honorary chairs of the transition team.
