BURIED LEDE: RFK, Jr. NOT Ending Campaign In All States, Only In 10 Battleground States!

Yesterday, the big news is the RFK, Jr. was “suspending” his campaign or “ending” his campaign or “dropping out”.

None is quite accurate.

In fact, what he’s doing is much more nuanced.

He’s only removing his name from the ballot in 10 battleground states:

The buried lede of the day: RFK is pulling out of red states and swing states, while remaining on the ballot in Blue states.

Even Charlie Kirk gets it partially wrong in this Tweet above.

He’s not remaining on the ballot in blue states….but in blue AND red states!

He is only taking his name off the ballot in 10 extremely close “battleground states”:

Wow. RFK Jr endorsed Trump and removed his name from the ballot in 10 swing states!!

He also spoke truth about the DNC and Democrat Party. “The party of war, censorship, corruption, big Pharma, big tech, and big money..”

CNN has the following explanation:

Kennedy insisted that he was not ending his campaign, but he noted that he will withdraw his name from appearing on ballots in swing states.

“My name will remain on the ballot in most states. If you live in a blue state, you can vote for me without harming — or helping — President Trump or Vice President Harris. In red states, the same will apply,” he said. “… But, in about 10 battleground states, where my presence would be a spoiler, I’m going to remove my name, and I’ve already started that process and urge voters not to vote for me.”

He also said that he believed he could end up in the White House if there is a contingent election, which would take place if neither of the major party candidates received the 270 votes necessary to win the election.

It’s a fascinating choice and something that is raising a lot of eyebrows.

But make no mistake, this is clearly designed to help President Trump.

Here’s how it could shift the balance of power in those critical 10 swing states:

RFK Jr. dropping out and campaigning for Trump is a huge deal. Yes, huge.

This could literally shift the entire election:

CNN's Erin Burnett reacts to RFK's endorsement of Trump: "The latest swing state polls show Kennedy with 5 or 6 percent of the vote. Now you might say, that's not a big deal… Actually, if that's the case, it is HUGE — it is everything" pic.twitter.com/773wMXdjqG

And in case anyone was confused or thought this was bad for Trump, just look at all the very upset Kamala Harris supporters and you’ll know who this benefits:

I don’t understand how RFKjr can suspend his campaign and pull his name from just the swing states, but not everywhere else. I feel like if you suspend your name should be gone from all ballots. If people really want you they’ll write in smh #HarrisWalz24

Fox News had more details:

CNN anchor Erin Burnett had a message for naysayers who are shrugging off former President Trump’s “huge” endorsement from former independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Kennedy rocked the political landscape on Friday by announcing he was suspending his campaign and backing the Republican nominee despite having been a lifelong Democrat.

“The latest swing state polls show Kennedy with five or six percent of the vote,” Burnett told viewers Friday evening.

“And so, when you think about it overall, and they say ‘Well, that’s not a big deal.’ Actually, if that is the case in swing states, it is huge. It is everything. It is more than the margin between Harris and Trump in some of those same states,” she added.

Burnett cited a recent New York Times/Siena College poll showing Kennedy with 6% support in Arizona and Nevada and 5% in Michigan, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

Kennedy joined Trump at a rally in Glendale, Arizona, where the former candidate received a hero’s welcome.

Kennedy, the nephew of President John F. Kennedy and son of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, both of whom were assassinated, initially launched his presidential bid as a Democrat in a primary challenge to President Biden. But later he sought an independent run after being pushed out by the party.

His endorsement of Trump threw a wrench in the news cycle that was previously dominated by Vice President Kamala Harris officially accepting the Democratic nomination at the DNC convention in Chicago just one month after Biden withdrew from the race.

RFK Jr Says He is NOT Terminating his Campaign, Only Suspending it in 10 Battleground States in Order Benefit Donald Trump

In a nutshell… RFK is staying on the ballot in states where his presence hurts Kamala Harris and removing himself from states where it hurts Trump.

“By staying on the ballot in key battleground states, he would likely hand the election over to democrats..”

This is is absolutely brilliant! But this announcement revealed something very important…

The 10 battleground states will be the states ripe with most fraud. I’m eager to learn which states he drops out in.

He also said that Trump and Harris could end up in an Electoral tie, resulting in him becoming president. 🤔
