Robert F. Kennedy Jr. withdrew from the ballot in Arizona late Thursday, a day before he and Donald Trump were set to appear miles apart in the Phoenix area as speculation grows that Kennedy could drop his independent presidential bid and endorse the Republican nominee.

Kennedy is scheduled to speak at 2 p.m. Eastern time in Phoenix “about the present historical moment and his path forward,” according to his campaign. Hours later, Trump will hold a rally in neighboring Glendale.

Trump, campaigning Thursday in southern Arizona at the U.S.-Mexico border, said that “no plans have been made” for Kennedy to appear with him on Friday. But he noted they would be in the same city at the same time.

New instructions from his handlers since Harris became the D nominee.

I think his handlers realized Bobby Brainworms was stealing more Trump voters.

I’ve definitely seen an uptick in Jill Stein shit here the last couple weeks.

With the state of the GOP, not sure if your comment is an endorsement or an indictment.

“RFK Jr to endorse trump, Brain Worm still undecided”

So much for claiming to care about the environment and climate change.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago

This is such an odd endorsement to seek.

I don’t see a huge amount of people who would trust the strange protest candidate enough to simply obey and vote for Trump. Especially because among his supporters who are largely 1) protest voters or 2) prone to conspiracy bandwagons, how many will remember who he endorsed in three months?

The brain worm told him he can pull votes from Harris if he joins Trump, the person he is allegedly "running against".
