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."

LOL! MSNBC and CNN are ignoring the news, like an ostrich.

If it’s not on “the evening news”, much of America won’t know about it.

To be fair, they could just be busy crapping in their pants.

This is going to be fun to watch.

At some point the mass media will viciously attack RFK Jr.—even more than they have done to date—and that will energize him even further.

This is a war the mass media will lose.

The independent candidate’s exit will add yet another twist to the already chaotic 2024 presidential race. Kennedy’s unorthodox views drew support from Democrats and Republicans. Both parties worried that he would be the biggest electoral spoiler in decades.

The presidential election remains incredibly close, and if even a fraction of Kennedy’s support moves to Trump, it could be decisive in swing states.

“If you live in a blue state, you can vote for me without harming or helping President Trump or Vice President Harris, and red states the same will apply,” Kennedy said at the press conference. “But in about 10 battleground states where my presence would be a spoiler, I’m going to remove my name.”

Happily that is no longer the case.

It would be easier to keep a flying saucer landing on the White House lawn secret than to keep this secret.

They are exercising enormous power by ignoring it.

Kennedy was drawing five percent in the polls, and all those votes will expand Trump’s lead.

Kammy is finished.

I smell another coup.

Trump said that it wouldn’t be Kammy in November.

The ballots already printed and mailed will not stop the Democrats from replacing her.

Howie Kurtz was just on trashing RFK. You can see the uniparty media types foaming at the mouth. The steal just got a little bit harder to do.

So he’s removing his name off ballots in states where it could help Harris.

Bravo!

The mass media are going to have to attack RFK Jr.

They will not be able to resist that temptation for long.

This is impossible to keep secret.

President Trump can run ads with RFK Jr. if more exposure is needed.

My prayers are with Robert F Kennedy Jr. and commend him for honoring the legacy of his late father and uncle.

I have a strong sense: the assassination attempt on President Trump’s life impacted his decision and put things on perspective. (And shame on Biden for refusing the son of Bobby Kennedy secret service protection. Oh the irony and symbolism!)

Yup—the mass media types have to foam at the mouth—and RFK Jr. will crush them by calling out their blatant bias and lies.

Not only did RFK Jr. endorse Trump.

It was a THROWDOWN of Comrade Kammy and the Democrat Party.

You have to watch the presser- it was brilliant!!!

Went on in a dignified manner talking about how the democrats are the real threat to democracy then went on and offered evidence.

His comparison of his endorsement of President Trump to Lincolns team of rivals was sheer brilliance!!!

It’s very interesting. He’s taking his name off the ballot in the “battleground” states. He’s leaving it on the ballot in solid red and blue states. He’s made a deal, but still agreeing to disagree. Which he just said in his speech something like ‘my uncle and father loved open debate’. So he may campaign for Trump where it matters and in places where it may not matter he likely won’t be a spoiler.

Rat Party Headquarters has been obsessed with keeping him off state ballots. That suggests that their internal polling tells them that he hurts them more than he hurts DJT. But what little of his speech that I heard sounded more like a salvo at the Rat Party than like an endorsement of DJT. Maybe I should listen to the whole thing.
