Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s decision to suspend his presidential campaign on Friday before rallying behind Republican nominee Donald Trump has been criticized by several family members.
In response to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s announcement, his brothers issued a statement:
According to CNN, Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, Courtney Kennedy, Kerry Kennedy, Chris Kennedy and Rory Kennedy said their brother's decision represents “a sad end to a sad story.”
“We want an America filled with hope and united by a shared vision of a better future, one defined by individual freedom, economic promise, and national pride,” they said in the statement. “We believe [Kamala] Harris and [Tim] Metal. Our brother Bobby's decision to support Trump [vendredi] It is a betrayal of the values that our father and our family hold dear. It is a sad ending to a sad story.”
Whoever is an independent candidate is nevertheless the heir to the famous democratic political dynasty.
Remember that he shares the same first name as his father, who was assassinated when he was the front-runner for the Democratic nomination in 1968, and that his uncle is former Democratic President John F. Kennedy Jr., who was assassinated five years earlier.
Robert Kennedy Jr. thus leaves a wide field for a duel between Democrat Kamala Harris and her rival Donald Trump in the final race towards the US presidential election on November 5.
