BREAKING: RFK, Jr. Drops Out, Endorses TRUMP! Will Partner With Trump Admin!

It’s official!

After speculation all week that RFK, Jr. would drop out and endorse President Trump, it just happened.

And he did it in style….

First, the endorsement: “I throw my support behind Donald Trump.”

But then he absolutely ripped the Democratic Party making it very clear which side he was on.

“Democrats stood against authoritarianism, against censorship, against colonialism, imperialism, and unjust wars.”

“We were the party of labor of the working class. The Democrats were the party of government transparency and the champion of the environment.”

“Our party was the bulwark against big money, interests, and corporate power. True to its name. It was the party of democracy.”

Watch here:

He also said choosing to endorse President Trump was not just a normal decision but a spiritual one for him.

Powerful statement:

Perhaps nothing is more important to RFK that his war against Big Pharma, and arguably President Trump’s weakest spot was his partnering with Big Pharma to roll out the vaccines (Operation Warp Speed) so the announcement that they are teaming up on this issue is huge for all involved:

Fox News had more details:

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. on Friday dropped his White House bid and announced support for former President Donald Trump, issuing broadsides against the Democratic Party’s handling of the primary election and media censorship.

“…I’ve made the heart-wrenching decision to suspend my campaign and to support President Trump. This decision is agonizing for me because of the difficulties it causes me, and my children and my friends,” said Kennedy.

Kennedy said in Phoenix that the Democratic Party “waged continual legal warfare against both President Trump and myself,” and “ran a sham primary.”

“In an honest system, I believe I would have won the election,” he said. “I no longer believe that I have a realistic past of electoral victory in the face of this relentless, systematic censorship and media control.”

Kennedy’s campaign is asking swing states to remove his name from the ballot because he does not want to be a “spoiler,” he said. He will remain on the ballot in states that he considers “red” or “blue,” he said. “If you live in a blue state, you can vote for me without harming or helping President Trump or or Vice President Harris,” Kennedy said. “In red states, the same will apply.”

The former Democrat spoke a couple of hours before Trump was scheduled to hold a campaign event in nearby Glendale, Arizona. The Trump campaign on Thursday advertised that the former president would be joined by a “special guest,” which further sparked speculation of a Kennedy endorsement of the Republican 2024 presidential nominee.

The announcement ends the presidential run by the longtime environmental activist and high-profile vaccine skeptic, who is the scion of the nation’s most storied political dynasty.

Kennedy launched his long-shot campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination in April of last year, but last October the 70-year-old candidate switched to an independent run for the White House.

While Kennedy had long identified as a Democrat and repeatedly invoked his late father Sen. Robert F. Kennedy and his uncle, President John F. Kennedy, who were both assassinated in the 1960s, Kennedy in recent years has built relationships with leaders on the right. Kennedy repeatedly invoked his father and uncle Friday in Phoenix.

President Biden’s campaign and the Democratic National Committee for months repeatedly slammed Kennedy as a potential spoiler whose supporters could hand Trump a presidential election victory in November.

I also thought Tucker Carlson had some great insight.

Rumors had been swirling that he played a part in “brokering” this deal between RFK, Jr. and Trump, but Tucker quickly put that rumor to rest saying it’s not true.

But he did have some great insight into how he thinks this will help President Trump.

Not necessarily in the endorsement directly, but merely by having RFK off the ticket, because he was clearly going to pull votes from Trump, not Harris.

Good analysis, watch here:

Transcript:

Megyn Kelly: The reports are, uh, that you and Don Jr. and maybe one other have been working behind the scenes to convince RFK Jr. that there’s no path forward for him in this particular race, which is, I mean, whether you tried that or not, that appears to be the case, and that he should drop out and endorse Donald Trump and potentially get a role in his administration. He has announced that he’s going to be making an announcement on Friday, and when asked about this, he just refused to confirm or deny for now but did say, “I’m not going to say anything about Donald Trump,” when asked to condemn some of Trump’s comments on climate change. So, what would you like to say about these reports?

Tucker Carlson: Well, I mean, I definitely didn’t broker anything. That’s not my role in life. I’m not good at that. I would never—I just wouldn’t do it, you know—go to Bobby and say, “You can get this,” and go to Trump and say, “You should do that.” I mean, you know, my only role, just in general, is knowing a lot of people, liking a lot of people. I always try to connect people, just in general, you know, “You should meet so-and-so.” But I’m not a political actor; I’m not good at it. I don’t really understand politics. Most of my political predictions are wrong. You know, I stay at 35,000 feet, which is the only place I’m comfortable or competent. And the second, you know, I’ve been lured into saying, “Oh, this race in this state is going to go that way,” I get humiliated because I don’t really understand it very well.

So, no, I didn’t broker anything. I know them both well, and I really like Bobby Kennedy. I always have. I don’t agree with him on everything, obviously, but I like his spirit, which is inquisitive, pretty honest—I would say actually, for a politician, very honest. Brave. I have a lot of— I share a lot of the concerns he’s articulated about health and the environment. I really care about the environment. I think climate change is not human-caused; I disagree on that. I think that’s ridiculous, actually. Climate is changing, but we’re not doing it. But I’m very concerned about the quality of the air and water and the soil. Very concerned. I think we all should be, and the more you know, the more you are concerned. I’m really concerned by some of the drugs people put in their bodies. As a 22-year-long sober person, I really love sobriety. I, you know, went to an AA meeting recently with Bobby Kennedy—had the best time ever. So we have a lot in common. And I’m a sportsman. I love hunting and fishing, and so does he. So we have just a lot in common personally, and that’s the basis of our friendship and of my affection for him.

On the political question, I’ve already said I have no idea what I’m talking about, and I really don’t. But this is my one insight, which I do think is true: I have no idea if he does endorse Trump. These are two big personalities, so I’ll kind of believe it when I see it. But if that happens tomorrow, I think it’ll help Trump, probably. I don’t really know, but I know for a fact that Bobby running third party would hurt Trump because there is a big overlap in their voters. It’s not on all the issues—they disagree on a bunch of issues—but anyone who thinks the current system is corrupt is not voting for Kamala Harris because she is, of course, the physical embodiment of corruption. And so you’re voting for Bobby Kennedy or Donald Trump. That’s the bottom line. And so I think if he stayed in, it would definitely hurt Trump. That’s my analysis for what it’s worth.

There’s a New York Post report out today—no, two days ago it hit—talking about how Bobby Kennedy is affecting this race between Harris and Trump, and it’s very telling. They’re looking at some recent polling and saying that—take Arizona—Trump leads K. Harris by one point in Arizona, and Bobby Kennedy there is taking 5%. So, I mean, important enough that he could definitely sway that race. In Michigan, yes, showing Trump—it’s basically tied, 45 to 44, Kennedy drawing 4% of the vote. Nevada, another nailbiter, saying Trump leads Harris there 43 to 42, 6% behind Bobby Kennedy. North Carolina, 47 to 44 in Trump’s favor, 2% backing RFK Jr. So it is really interesting how tight it is. Pennsylvania, Harris leads Trump by two points, and Wisconsin, she leads him by four points, Kennedy’s at 4% and 3% respectively. So this guy, he may not have the votes that he had maybe, you know, six months ago when he was polling more like 11%, but he truly could swing this election if the people getting ready to vote for him did what he asked them to do and voted for, let’s say in this case, Trump.

Megyn Kelly: Yes, I think that’s right. And there’s a whole kind of demographic in this country that’s meaningful in numbers, and it’s non-liberal nature people—kind of old-fashioned hippie types. They’re not all into neoliberalism, actually. A lot of them still believe in civil liberties, they appreciate nature, they don’t want to see it despoiled with chemicals, they don’t think Monsanto is like a great company necessarily, and they look at Kamala Harris, who’s not even a real person—I mean, it could be anybody—but they look at that machine financed by the banks and pharma, and they think to themselves, “You know, I don’t have anything in common with these people.” And they maybe look at Trump, and they’re like, “Who’s that guy? He’s weird, I don’t like him either.” But there are a lot of like right-wing hippies, actually, particularly in rural areas. They have guns, they live in rural areas, of course, they use guns. And so I think those are all potential Trump voters. There are some style problems that turn them off to Trump, but they’re definitely not on the side of BlackRock at all.

And Bobby Kennedy—and I live near a lot of people like this, I share a lot of their views—so I’m very familiar with this demographic, and I think that Bobby Kennedy is a pretty good way into voting for Trump for them. He has credibility with them, and for good reason. I share your concerns about what’s happening with the environment and the toxins in the food supply and all that. It’s funny, Tucker, you’ll laugh because—so I recently decided that I was going to stop getting pedicures. Like, I get a pedicure, but I don’t get toe polish. I don’t get toenail polish. And I’m like, “You know, I don’t want to—would you look at me? Would you look at the number of toxins I have on me right now? In my hair, I’m like—not to mention the Botox—like, what a charlatan I am.” But, you know, it’s like around the edges, Tucker, we do what we can to try to minimize the toxins coming into life. That is where I draw the line.

Tucker Carlson: No, I mean, if I’m being honest, I come from a family like that—like, what’s in your toothpaste? What’s in your deodorant? I mean, you know, I’m 55, I grew up in California in the ’70s, where people were really concerned about this stuff. A lot of them were kind of dippy liberal people that we made fun of, and, you know, I still make fun of them. On the other hand, those concerns turned out to be absolutely real. And if you look at the rates of chronic illness in this country, I mean, it’s destroying the country.

And I had a conversation last week with a woman called Casey Means, who’s—

Megyn Kelly: I saw this! She’s Callie’s sister, right?

Tucker Carlson: Callie’s sister. Callie’s a friend of mine and a wonderful guy. But his sister is one of the most powerful people I’ve ever interviewed in my—you know, in 33 years of interviewing people, I’ve met very few people like Casey Means. First of all, she has the credibility, the authority. She’s top of her class at Stanford Medical School. She’s a surgeon, okay, which is the highest level of medicine, obviously. And she left it all because she thought the system was so corrupt. But the compelling part of the interview for me was just the litany of health statistics that she threw out there. The country’s actually dying. And I sensed that; I’ve read about it before, but I’ve never seen those stats collected in one place in the way that she did. And it’s an emergency. It’s an emergency that I would say supersedes all others.

What role would you love to see RFK, Jr. have in a Trump Administration?
