RFK Jr. Condemns Democrats’ ‘Mafia Tactics’ As Desperation

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has endorsed President Donald Trump, criticizing the Democratic Party’s aggressive approach as both desperate and misguided.

In an interview with Tucker Carlson, Kennedy described how Democratic operatives targeted people from his past to discredit him. Despite those efforts, internal polling indicated that Kennedy’s candidacy was pulling more votes from Trump’s base, which made the Democrats’ strategy counterproductive.

Kennedy argues that the Democratic Party’s focus on attacking him reflects a larger issue within the party — a disconnect from the values it once represented.

Kennedy, who aligns with Trump on issues like free speech, the Ukraine conflict, and children’s protection, explained that these principles guided his decision to leave the Democratic fold. His backing of Trump is more than symbolic; Kennedy is now playing an active role in policy discussions and transition planning. He believes the Democratic Party’s tactics have only deepened the divide between them and voters who feel abandoned by their current platform.

In his interview, Kennedy recounted how the Democrats even contacted a man he knew from an AA meeting 40 years ago in a bid to dig up dirt. Such actions, he said, are indicative of a party losing touch with its base. He views these attacks as a strategic error that ultimately pushed him toward supporting Trump.

Kennedy’s role in Trump’s campaign is now centered on helping shape the next administration and ensuring that policy aligns with American interests. He believes that working alongside Trump is the best way to protect freedoms and resist the growing authoritarian tendencies he sees within the Democratic Party. His shift in support highlights a significant realignment that could influence the 2024 election outcome.
