After announcing that he would be suspending his campaign, withdrawing from swing-state races and endorsing Donald Trump for President of the United States, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will be speaking with Dr. Phil this week to explain the data-driven reasoning behind his decision.
Basically, he doesn't want to be the guy who hands Kamala Harris the keys to the White House.
Kennedy's team crunched the numbers and found that 57 percent of his voters would rather see Trump back in the Oval Office than let Kamala Harris set up shop, and so RFK Jr. is bowing out because he doesn't want to split the vote and give Harris a leg up.
Apparently, he's more in sync with Trump on the "big issues" like censorship, war, and border security — the existential threats keeping him up at night. He's still got a beef with Trump over the environment, but hey, nobody's perfect.
RFK Jr. — who was once seen as a potential wrecking ball for Joe Biden — is now pivoting against Kamala Harris, and polls are already showing that Kennedy's exit could give Trump a small but meaningful boost. And there's this fascinating twist: Some voters who backed Biden in 2020 before flirting with the idea of voting for RFK Jr. are now eyeing Trump like he's the next logical step in their political journey.
While the Democratic National Committee is busy colluding with the legacy media to reinvent Kamala Harris as the moderate challenger to Donald Trump the incumbent, RFK Jr.'s decision might be the most significant plot twist in this election cycle.
Who knew Dr. Phil's couch would play a part? How bow dah?
