Geez. I wasn't questioning the meaning of the word "serve".
I was questioning of the description "was to". That sounds very odd.
Was Kennedy chosen by Trump and then Trump changed his mind? Funny but I don't recall that being the case. and if it was the case, where is the back story on it that I've never heard before.
You get now?
“Was Kennedy chosen by Trump and then Trump changed his mind?”
That’s what’s been reported, and Trump never has denied it.
