Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced on Friday he would suspend his presidential campaign from ten "battleground states" where his presence "would be a spoiler" to Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and Democratic candidate Kamala Harris.
"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," Kennedy Jr. said in his address to the nation, revealing that he would "throw" his support to Trump, citing "free speech" and Ukraine war as his reason to endorse the Republican nominee.
The independent presidential candidate slammed the Democratic Party for becoming "the party of war, censorship, corruption, Big Pharma, big tech...and big money," accusing it of "abandoning democracy" by "canceling the primary to conceal the cognitive decline of the sitting president." "Now in an honest system, I believe that I would have won the election," Kennedy Jr. stressed. The 70-year-old politician previously asked to remove his name from Pennsylvania and Arizona ballots.
