RFK Jr. said Trump ‘barely human’ and ‘probably a sociopath’ in recent texts: New Yorker

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. reportedly described former President Trump as a “terrible human being,” calling him the “worse president ever” in a recent text exchange reported by The New Yorker on Monday.
“In a recent text exchange, Kennedy told one person that Trump was ‘a terrible human being. The worse president ever and barely human. He is probably a sociopath,'” The New Yorker’s Clare Malone wrote in a profile of Kennedy published Monday.
Kennedy, though, said President Biden was “more dangerous to the Republic and the planet” than Trump.
Trump and Kennedy had a phone call meeting ahead of last month’s Republican National Convention, where the former president was officially named the Republican Party’s presidential nominee.
In a leaked video of the call, Trump was heard on speakerphone saying he agrees with some of Kennedy’s stances on vaccines.
Trump could also be heard saying he would love for the long-shot candidate to “do something,” adding it would be “so good” for Kennedy. Trump also told him “we’re going to win,” according to the footage.
Kennedy apologized for the leak of the call shortly after it was posted online.
Amaryllis Fox, Kennedy’s campaign director and daughter-in-law, told The New Yorker that Trump and his team asked Kennedy, “Is there something that you want to do?”
