BREAKING: RFK Endorses Trump, Crushes Harris’ Hopes In Key Swing States [WATCH]
On Friday Robert F. Kennedy Jr. officially endorsed President Donald Trump, sending shockwaves through key swing states, putting Vice President Kamala Harris’ electoral hopes in jeopardy. The announcement comes after Kennedy’s decision to suspend his own campaign, citing a triumphant shift in the national political dialogue that his campaign helped ignite.
“It’s with a sense of victory and not defeat, that I’m suspending my campaign activities,” Kennedy began. He highlighted his campaign’s achievements, including collecting over a million signatures and bringing critical issues such as chronic disease, free speech, and government corruption to the forefront of the national conversation.
Kennedy’s endorsement of Trump marks a critical juncture in the 2024 presidential race, as his influence is expected to sway many former supporters in his direction. “Thank you for a job well done,” Kennedy told his supporters. “These are the principal causes that persuaded me to leave the Democratic Party and run as an Independent. And now to throw my support to President Trump.”
WATCH:
“The Democrats were the party of government transparency and the champion of the environment. Our party was the bulwark against big money interests and corporate power. True to its name, it was the party of democracy. As you know, I left that party in October because it had departed so dramatically from the core values that I grew up with,” Kennedy said. “It had become the party of war, censorship, corruption, big pharma, big tech, and big money. By canceling the primary to conceal the cognitive decline of the sitting president.”
Political analysts suggest that Kennedy’s support for Trump could significantly alter the dynamics in battleground states where Harris had been gaining traction. With Kennedy’s backing, Trump’s campaign is poised to consolidate a broader base, appealing to independents and disaffected Democrats. The endorsement poses a severe blow to the Harris campaign, which had been counting on these critical states to build a winning coalition in the upcoming election.
In a Pennsylvania court filing earlier today, the Kennedy campaign first reportedly endorsed Trump for president according to The Associated Press. The campaign requested Kennedy’s removal from the Pennsylvania ballot. The speech comes just before Trump is set to hold a rally in the nearby city of Glendale. Trump’s campaign had hinted that he will be joined by “a special guest.”
