With his endorsement of Donald Trump, former independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy is now all aboard the GOP candidate’s campaign train, boasting that he's been picked to help the former president draft policy for his next term in office. He has also suggested that Trump would join him in seeking to criminalize the spraying of "chemtrails," promoting a debunked conspiracy theory about the government releasing toxic chemicals into the air to kill off undesirable elements of the population.
The Trump campaign, meanwhile, is declining to condemn Kennedy's latest conspiratorial remarks, instead telling Salon that its "proud" to have him on the former president's "transition team."
