Harris campaign spokesperson: Our message isn’t for RFK Jr.
The Hill ^ | 08/22/2024 | Lauren Irwin

Vice President Harris’s campaign spokesperson says the campaign isn’t worried about the possibility that independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will drop out and endorse former President Trump, saying their message “isn’t for” him, but rather for voters who are on the fence about a second Trump term.

“I think our message, frankly, isn’t for RFK,” Michael Tyler said Thursday on MSNBC. “It’s for the voters who are looking for a place to go in this campaign.”

Tyler, speaking from the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, touched on the rumors that Kennedy will drop out of the race Friday and endorse Trump.

Kennedy’s long-shot campaign is waning after President Biden dropped out of the race, and Harris has surged in the polls since entering it.

“I think that him dropping out fully cements … that this election is going to be a choice between Vice President Harris, who’s fighting for the American people, [and] Donald Trump, who, as I said earlier, is simply fighting for himself,” Tyler said in comments highlighted by Mediaite.

Harris campaign is amateur hour.

Saying nothing would have been best.

To or more less tell Kennedy voters to not let the door hit them in the backside on the way out was not politically wise.

I’m fairly certain Kennedy voters are traditional voters to the Dem base and should have been treated with more respect as such.

Just heard that RFK Jr just said he’s not ready to drop out and endorse anybody. I told y’all we’ve been down this road before you have to be sensible these people are just pulling our chains. Believe not unless it comes out of the horse’s mouth. Never take to heart rumors!

Apparently both of them are getting a lot of heat behind closed doors. I mean a tremendous amount of heat. His VP just commented on X that the DNC needs to back off, stop suing them and let them on the debate stage. It’s all a ployed! They’re using Trump as leverage to get what they want. ..that’s all it is. If you don’t believe me go in X and look her up and you’ll see her statement there.

Ya know that’s a good idea but with all that scum washing down the pipes , you might have to have Roto-Rooter on stand by. Crap like that may cause draining issues.

True but he wants something more. If you think about it ..why make a statement like that? And get all the lefties all riled up? He wants something in return for that 4% that Kamala cannot get. He probably wants either money or a position in her administration. But it has absolutely nothing to do with Trump or else Trump himself would’ve already announced it. But he really hasn’t said much about a RFK endorsement..he knows he’s being played.

Some reporter from NBC News yesterday said that her two sources told her that RFK Jr would be endorsing Trump on Friday and perhaps doing rallies with him not sure if that is true..honestly not sure what is going on. Trump did say he has a lot of respect for RFK Jr and would like to have a role for him in his Administration I guess the saying goes, never trust a Kennedy honestly who knows what the real story is

If Trump put RFK Jr in a position to honestly investigate Covid and everyone that told lies to the public about Covid, people like Fauci, the public desperately needs a full accounting of what happened with Covid and for those who were involved with Covid to be held accountable, I think Trump could wrap up this election big time.

I think we need full transparency from our law enforcement and Intel agencies, put RFK Jr. in charge of fully releasing all the information about the assassination of his uncle and Father, MLK and every other political assassination the CIA or FBI has been involved in.

Full investigate and release everything the government has on UFOs and aliens once and for all.

They’re so many things RFK Jr. could bring to the table if he were put in charge of specific things that a lot of people from both parties’ care about it would really help Trump.

Wait until other groups of people find out that Kamala's message isn't for them, either way or but the hard way.

Third Party candidacies are generally not about winning, they are about advancing an agenda and being heard. I voted 3rd Party numerous times. I certainly wasn’t going to vote for Romney. It’s what you do when the party you lean towards keepon serving crap sandwiches, or to get an issue on the table, as the libertarians did in getting Trump involved on anissue involving a web site operator in jail because of what his vendors sold.
