RFK Jr. endorses Trump as he ends presidential campaign
NBC ^ | 8/23/24 | Katherine Koretski and Ben Kamisar and Emma Barnett

PHOENIX — Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s campaign told a Pennsylvania court that he will be endorsing former President Donald Trump, ahead of his own Friday afternoon announcement putting to rest a tumultuous independent presidential campaign.

The filing in Pennsylvania, in a lawsuit related to a legal challenge to his own ballot access in the state, said that Kennedy was withdrawing from the ballot "as a result of today's endorsement of Donald Trump for the office of President of the United States."

I’m always willing to disagree. I bring my thoughts here to bounce them off others. The path RFK is taking with asking voters in 4o states to vote for him and his specific mention that he hoped he could still be President worried me. I did include that part in the partial transcript I posted. I am perhaps very cynical at this point.

It was a good speech and RFK is a sincere man who has zeroed in on real problems with American health policy. I will wait to see if he really throws his weight behind DJT.

We saw and heard a good old fashion statesman today in RFK. Imagine how that is going to look to normies when the Pravda guard attacks him.

I wonder how the former Mrs. Mary R Kennedy feels about it. She was his second wife but she's dead now.

Two female ostriches were walking together when they realized that two male ostriches were following them. When the males were near, the females buried their heads in the sand. One of the males stopped behind them and said, “Where did they go?”

There was. There was a portion of the speech not in the transcript I read where Kennedy was more definate about working with Trump. Trump introduced Kennedy tonight at a rally and the talked about what they would do together: children’s health address the corruption between pharmy and the three letter agencies and a commission to reveal the truth about Kennedy assassinations.

“But what little of his speech that I heard sounded more like a salvo at the Rat Party than like an endorsement of DJT”
.

Bongino had Nicole Shanahan—Kennedy’s VP choice—on, who said Friday’s announcement would be about “Democracy” than an endorsement of DJT.

It seemed like an awkward guest appearance for both Bongino and guest.

Elsewhere (Yahoo) was this:

“Our brother Bobby’s decision to endorse Trump today is a betrayal of the values that our father and our family hold most dear,” they said in a statement. “It is a sad ending to a sad story.”

“I just hope Trump is chipping in for extra security for RFK Jr.”
.

Will RFK,Jr and DJT ever share a podium?

And “mass media” will be seen as the heartless, cold, sadists that they are.

Who is going to fault RFKjr...this is a man who LOST HIS FATHER AND UNCLE TO ROTTEN, EVIL AND UN-AMERICAN RIFF-RAFF, DISREPUTABLE PEOPLE WHO HATE AMERICA...AFTER DRIFTING AWAY FROM COMMON SENSE ALL THESE YEARS.

WHO...IS GOING TO VILIFY...A KENNEDY??????

Even I, a former JFK lover, will see the TRUTH.

“How’s the basement? You got cable?”

Oh so clever. My experience is that lots of people trust the evening news because that’s what their parents trusted. I will grant that my sample tends to be older folks, because I am one, that’s who I associate with.

In a close race, those people matter. By the way, how many people still think the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation? The msm is very powerful.

"I’m just afraid that the Cheat Machine (tm) is going to be in full force and there might not be anything we can do about it."

No matter how hard you clutch those pearls, you won't compress them enough to become diamonds.

If you actually feel that way, work a phone bank, work door-to-door, call the campaign and offer to help any way you can. If you're in a red state, you can still make a difference on a phone bank.
