RFK Jr. Exits Race, Endorses Trump: In The Name Of Saving Democracy, The Democratic Party Is Dismantling It | Video | RealClearPolitics

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy suspended his campaign and endorsed Donald Trump on Friday during a speech in Arizona.
“In an honest system, I believe I would have won the election,” Kennedy said. “I am sorry to say that while democracy may still be alive at the grassroots level, it has become little more than a slogan for our political institutions, our media, and our government — and most of all, for the Democratic Party.”
“In the name of saving democracy, the Democratic Party set itself to dismantling it.”

“The DNC deployed aligned judges to throw me and other candidates off the ballot and to throw President Trump in jail. It ran a sham primary that was rigged to prevent any serious challenge to President Biden. Then, when a predictably bungled debate performance precipitated the palace coup against President Biden, the same shadowy DNC operatives appointed his successor, also without an election. They installed a candidate who was so unpopular with voters that she dropped out in 2020 without winning a single delegate,” Kennedy continued.

“My uncle and my father both relished debate. They prided themselves on their capacity to go toe-to-toe with any opponent in the battle over ideas. They would be astonished to learn of a Democratic Party presidential nominee who, like Vice President Harris, has not appeared in a single interview or unscripted encounter with voters for 35 days. This is profoundly undemocratic. How are people to choose when they don’t know whom they are choosing, and how must this look to the rest of the world?”
