Mike Rowe, the host of 'Dirty Jobs,' has confirmed that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has approached him about the possibility of serving as his vice president. Discussions between Rowe and Kennedy have centered on various topics, including the national debt, with Kennedy expressing his concern about preventing it from rising from $34 trillion to $50 trillion. Rowe initially believed his meeting with Kennedy was to discuss efforts to support the skilled trades but soon realized it was, in fact, a vice presidential interview. 'He's serious,' Rowe remarked about Kennedy's demeanor during their discussion. The potential of Rowe joining Kennedy's ticket has sparked discussions about its impact on attracting union workers and working-class voters, with some suggesting it could sway disaffected Democrats in swing states.
If this is true, the RFK ticket is more likely to appeal to disaffected Democrats than it is to conservative voters. If RFK had picked someone like Mike Rowe, I think he could’ve caused some real problems in swing states by appealing to working class voters. Not too worried now. https://t.co/PI1zcfs5L8
