RFK Jr. expected to drop out of race by end of week, plans to endorse Trump: Sources
Robert Kennedy Jr. is planning to drop out of the presidential race by the end of this week, sources familiar with the decision tell ABC News.
I get it. It was really cutting into his roadkill-eating time and you only have so many bicycles in your van.
I guess once they figured he was cutting into Trump's vote more then Harris's they couldn't have him spoiling the wrong candidate.
Imagine giving up on being President to endorse a convicted felon.
Well, he* was never going to win
They had hoped he would siphon “anyone but Trump” voters off of Biden. But now they’re afraid he’ll siphon votes off of Trump and assume that no one who would vote for Harris would vote for RFK
Something he and Nikki Haley have in common. Trump was happy to have her, despite earlier saying anyone who voted for her was permanently banned from MAGA, so really it’s the perfect match.
Imagine agreeing to become the sidekick to a man that you called "America's Hitler" just a few years prior.
"Hey, Hitler is making me money, guess I'm okay with him."
This isn't the real RFK Jr. The real one is being held captive. The imposter is trying to drop out and support trump. But the real one will be released upon winning the election and will then be sitting president. Keep the faith, spread the word, and vote RFK Jr! Don't believe the lies.
He's clearly working in partnership with his father, Vincent Fusca, and they plan to restore the Kennedy name once they take the White House back. This will break the curse, reset time, and transport us back to 1963 where it all began.
Is the real Paul McCartney his running mate?
No, zombie John Lennon
And in typical trump fashion, rfks probably not getting paid.
Trump's going to abandon RFK Jr. when he's no longer useful, just like RFK Jr. did with the dead bear cub in Central Park.
Behind the Bastards just did a 3 or 4 part series on him and he apparently had a recent call with Trump where a quid-pro-quo deal was discussed with him dropping out and winding up with a cabinet position (HHS?) for it.
Like on Veep and House of Cards!!!!!
I like to imagine that the brain worm is piloting RFK's body like the mechas in Pacific Rim.
Or like the worms in Futurama, but instead of improving him, they are just trashing the joint.
Or like the little alien guy inside the 'sugar water' guy's head in MIB
Don't be silly, you'd need TWO worms for that...
Or the mouse in Murphy's brain from that episode of Sealab 2021.
Can he drop out?
Kamala had to be nominated before the convention to make registration deadlines in Ohio.
Shouldn't RFK be stuck on the ballet? - at least in Ohio?
Shouldn't RFK be stuck on the ballet?
We all get stuck on ballet, standing on your toes is hard.
Is he even on the ballot in Ohio?
If he's on any ballots he might well be stuck on them, but nothing stops him from ceasing to campaign and telling people to vote Trump.
Ofc some tiny fraction may still vote for him if they really want to.
Ohio hasn't certified him yet:

In theory he met the requirements.
ballet
Those 528 weirdos he is bringing will fit right in with the MAGA slush.
Fuck, my parents want to vote for this clown. I don't think my mom can stomach to vote for Trump, because of the reversal of Roe v Wade, but my dad might be dumb enough to do it. Fuuuuck...
god. what cabinet post was he promised. usually the big one is secretary of state. as if the first was not bad enough. trump pres, jd vice pres and jfk jr sec of state. I can't get this nightmare out of my head.
According to John Oliver a few weeks ago, RFK himself suggested HHS. Which is absolutely horrifying and absolutely something I could see Trump doing.
Does he even matter?
Might have taken votes away from Trump, otherwise no.

Who's voting for Robert Kennedy Jr.?
Who’s voting RFK? The demographic profile of RFK voters is fairly similar to the average American. There are no significant differences by race, age, or income, though RFK Jr. voters are slightly more likely to be women.
On the issues, RFK Jr. is a little all over the place. He previously ran as a Democratic candidate, but at the same time has embraced right-wing conspiracies about the COVID-19 vaccine. His supporters, too, are a bit scattered on the issues. For example, like Republicans, they are more likely to view immigration as a top issue, but like Democrats, are more likely to view climate change and abortion as top issues.
Hmm.
According to this:
https://www.statista.com/statistics/1422275/robert-f-kennedy-jr-favorability-age-us/
He polls best with people 30-44.
Gonna need you to expand on the roadkill/van bit
You can't make this shit up
If he doesn't Trump loses very likely so it happens.
