RFK Jr. endorses Trump with a shock ploy that could upend the election

Daily Mail  

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said Friday that he was suspending his campaign - with a twist. Kennedy pushed supporters who live in 10 swing states to back Republican nominee Donald Trump, but said his name would remain on the ballots on traditional red or blue states. In long-winded remarks, Kennedy said he was withdrawing from the race in swing states because, 'I would likely hand the election over to the Democrats, with whom I disagree on the most existential issues.' 'Our brother Bobby's decision to endorse Trump today is a betrayal of the values that our father and our family hold most dear,' said Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, Courtney Kennedy, Kerry Kennedy, Chris Kennedy and Rory Kennedy. Earlier Friday, Kennedy's running mate, Nicole Shanahan, cast some doubt that a Trump endorsement would happen, telling podcast host Adam Carolla that Trump needed to apologize for his COVID-19 response.
