TV personality Dr. Phil is set to air interviews with Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and his former independent opponent Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Dr. Phil — real name Phil McGraw — will air the interviews next week on his television network and streaming service Merit Street.

The Trump interview is set to air on Aug. 27, with Kennedy's interview scheduled to be released the next day.

"If you live in a blue state, you can vote for me without harming or helping President Trump or or Vice President Harris," Kennedy said. "In red states, the same will apply."
