- Donald Trump is the betting favorite to win the election (-180 odds) and has make several mentions of teaming up with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
- Still, sportsbooks with election odds are listing RFK as a +350 underdog to be a member of Trump’s cabinet.
NEW YORK – Betting on Robert F. Kennedy Jr. becoming a cabinet member in Donald Trump's potential 2024 administration has emerged as intriguing election odds. As Trump continues to gather momentum, sportsbooks listed Kennedy at +350 odds to join the Trump administration, specifically as head of the FDA or in a similar health-related role.
Kennedy, who has long been outspoken about issues surrounding public health, vaccines, and food quality, would be an unconventional yet fitting addition to a Trump cabinet that prides itself on bucking political norms. His decision to drop out of the race in swing states has been seen as a strategic move, potentially benefiting Trump by helping undecided voters make their choice. Trump's recent comments playfully echoed his famous "Make America Great Again" slogan, stating that RFK would "make America healthy again."
These odds offer an exciting opportunity for bettors who believe in a Trump-Kennedy alliance. With +350 odds, a $100 wager on Kennedy would return $450 in total if Trump wins the election and appoints him to his cabinet. However, it’s important to remember that this bet hinges not only on Trump winning (which is currently priced at -180 odds) but also on Kennedy receiving a key executive role, such as at the FDA, USDA, or other health-focused departments.
Trump’s public praise for Kennedy, especially regarding health and wellness issues, gives this bet some weight. Kennedy’s emphasis on health reform aligns with Trump’s broader goals of revamping government agencies. The FDA, often a target of Kennedy's critiques, would be a natural landing spot if Trump were to name him to a position of influence.
Other Potential Trump Cabinet Members
In addition to RFK, rumors have swirled around other potential Trump cabinet picks, with sportsbooks offering odds on various figures, including Tulsi Gabbard (+450), Elon Musk (+500), and Tucker Carlson (+1800).

- Tulsi Gabbard: +450
- Ivanka Trump: +3000
- Lara Trump: +1800
- Tucker Carlson: +1800
Gabbard, who recently switched to the Republican party, has also been named in betting circles as a likely candidate for a Trump administration role, further adding to the intrigue around potential cabinet appointments.
