Former president Donald Trump introduced Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as the "special guest" at a rally in Glendale, Arizona, just hours after Kennedy suspended his presidential campaign.

Kennedy 70, a former Democrat, withdrew his candidacy as an Independent candidate on Aug. 23 amid sagging polls and backed Trump as the Republican nominee in the 2024 election.

Former President Donald Trump says he will appoint Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to a new federal panel on chronic disease should he win reelection, Trump announced during an Aug. 23 rally featuring the independent candidate.

"I want to salute Bobby's decades of work as an advocate for the health of our families and our children. Nobody's done more," Trump said during the rally in Glendale, Arizona, referencing Kennedy's decades of work for Children's Health Defense.

In recognition of some of the issues most emphasized by Kennedy's campaign, Trump said he would "establish a panel of top experts working with Bobby to investigate what is causing the decades-long increase in chronic health problems and childhood diseases, including autoimmune disorders, autism, obesity, infertility, and many more."

Trump also vowed that should he be reelected, he would release all currently classified files pertaining to the assassination of Kennedy's uncle, President John F. Kennedy.
