Former President Donald Trump recently discussed the possibility of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. dropping out of the race and endorsing him. Trump expressed admiration for Kennedy, stating that he would be honored by his endorsement due to Kennedy's respected reputation and good intentions. Trump also criticized the Democratic Party for mistreating Kennedy, who he noted was a former Democrat and believed he could have defeated President Biden in the primary.
RFK Jr.'s running mate, Nicole Shanahan, hinted at the potential of dropping out and supporting Trump, citing the Democratic Party's obstruction of a fair election. Shanahan emphasized the importance of preventing those who have corrupted democracy from holding office. Trump echoed these sentiments, claiming that the Democratic Party made it difficult for RFK Jr. to succeed and reiterated his belief that Kennedy could have surpassed Biden.
RFK Jr. is expected to address the nation regarding his future plans. While he did not confirm any decision to drop out of the race, sources indicated that it was under consideration. Trump also commented on issues such as border security and the revised job growth statistics, criticizing news outlets for allegedly neglecting these critical topics.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics recently revised down the total job creation figures for the past year by 818,000 jobs, highlighting discrepancies in initial reporting. Trump accused media outlets of spreading misinformation and failing to address pressing issues like border security and job market inaccuracies.
