2024 presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. plans to announce he will run as an independent on October 9 in Pennsylvania, Mediaite has learned.
Kennedy’s campaign machine is now planning “attack ads” against the Democratic National Committee in order to “pave the way” for his announcement in Philadelphia about running as an independent, according to a text reviewed by Mediaite.
“Bobby feels that the DNC is changing the rules to exclude his candidacy so an independent run is the only way to go,” a Kennedy campaign insider told Mediaite.
Kennedy, a notorious anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist challenging incumbent President Joe Biden for the Democratic nomination, has been flirting with a third party run in recent weeks. The New York Times reported last week that he met with the chair of the Libertarian Party, raising the prospect of a departure from the party that decades ago became synonymous with his family name.

Credit him for the idea. His guidance and counsel is timeless.
If NOTHING else, an RFK run would force the Biden campaign to spend more resources in states that they would otherwise deem ‘safe’.
Big Pharma paid its whores to propagandize for the vaxx—as you say there was no requirement they actually take it.
doesn’t have a chance but hey love his spirit. I will send a donation just to keep him in the game.
..... In order for Trump to win .... He will need almost all of the dysfunctional Conservatives/Republicans to vote and all vote for him .... Along with a Large chunk of disillusioned Democrats et-al to seal the deal.
.... The number to beat will be around 82 Million votes. So ... With Kennedy running as an Independant, he will siphon off a lot of the disillusioned Democrats that may have actually voted for Trump.
I dont think there is such thing as disillusioned democrats anymore, maybe a few of them still exist but the majority will never vote for a Republican
Unfortunately he is not.
I was surprised by all of the wide ranging conspiracy theories that RFKJr was advocating. Many I believe myself. Many others seemed too far out to be serious.
I then became surprised that his wife was not immediately shunned by the Hollyweird set.
I think the fix is in.
I know lots of lefties. They all think he is a lunatic. None of them would vote for him over Trump. I also know a bunch of patriots. Several of them said they prefer Trump but if anything happens to him, they will vote for Kennedy.
Trump is going to be so damaged by the time next Nov rolls around, I anticipate several of them will switch.
I find it hard to believe that he’d hurt the Rat nominee.But I can see him hurting DJT. I hope I’m wrong,however.
“Trump was already getting a lot of ‘Rat votes. Thats the problem. RFK is aiding and abetting Deep State in another steal.”
Could be, but we’ll know for sure when we see how the Media treats him.
False
No surprise there. He’s an old time demmie. Not the Marxists now infesting the party.
To bad present administration won’t act to protect his life. No shortage of agents looking after Hunter I’m sure
RFK Jr will definitely take more votes from Trump than Biden
You are a nut case Jew Hater. Your opinion about RK carries no weight.
Run RK Run.
“RFK Jr will definitely take more votes from Trump than Biden”
Then donate to RFK Jr because Meatball is flopping…Big Time.
I agree. Too bad the election isn't next November, a lot can happen. But from the current perspective, Kennedy would absolutely put Trump beyond the Democrat margin of cheat. Whether Kennedy will still be in the race in November 2024, though, is not certain. I'm holding my champagne.
Nope.
RFKjr could pull 8-9%, and pull those votes 3:1 Biden:Trump.
What will be interesting will be his VP choice: Gary Johnson would sink him, Angela "Bow Wow" McGargle would sink him, Jo Jorgensen doesn't really bring anything extra but would be innocuous, but what if he could get a true wild card like Matt McConaughey. Bongo Boy could play it down the middle somewhere in between kicks-for-laughs and hearing himself speak endlessly about "national unity" -- McConaughey's presence would hit Biden right in the nuts, pulling away "Julias" and worthless baby mommas by the millions.
That would guarantee a victorious Trump-Youngkin ticket. I am all in.
Ross Perot effect? But whom will this hurt?
