▍原文


Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s possible presidential running mate could be Nicole Shanahan, a tech lawyer with little political experience but a track record of donating large sums to Democratic candidates.


Shanahan was married to Google co-founder Sergey Brin, which reportedly ended after she had an affair with SpaceX CEO Elon Musk.


An anonymous source said that Kennedy and Shanahan "align on numerous issues."
