Winners and losers of 2024.
Spoiler might be going MAGA.
After Kennedy was blocked from New York, he has finally acknowledge that it may be over.
The Kennedy family has formally endorsed Kamala Harris, the Vice President of the United States and 2024 Democratic presidential nominee.
Kennedy infamously met Trump during the Libertarian Party Convention and Republican National Convention to discuss a coalition or an appointment in a second Trump administration.
Republicans were boasting Kennedy when President Joe Biden was running. Mind you that Kennedy pulled 15% when it was Trump and Biden. Now Kennedy pulls in only 5% with it being Harris and Trump.
It can make a big difference if the Republicans manage to win key swing states if Kennedy got on the ballot.
Kennedy this month lambasted Harris in the wake of reporting saying he was denied a potential role in her administration. The Washington Post reported Kennedy’s team had contacted the Harris campaign seeking a meeting to discuss a potential role should she win in November.
Kennedy reportedly offered to drop out of the race and endorse Harris in exchange. Shanahan on Tuesday denied such reports via the “Impact theory with Tom Bilyeu” podcast, but she said the Kennedy campaign may shutter operations to avoid the “risk” of a victory by Harris.
There’s two options that we’re looking at, and one is staying in, forming that new party, but we run the risk of a Kamala Harris and [Tim] Walz presidency because we draw votes from Trump,” she said.The other option, she said, is to “walk away right now and join forces with Donald Trump.” Shanahan said this move would allow the campaign to eye a potential 2028 run.
Shanahan went on to clarify she is not currently in talks with the Trump campaign about such a move. Kennedy reportedly met with Trump during the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee to discuss such a deal.
The third party campaign is currently struggling to obtain ballot access in some states. A judge ruled this month Kennedy could not appear on New York’s ballot, a decision that could impact his access in other states.
Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., this month discussed obstacles he faced running for president. Though he filed to run as a Democrat in the 2020 election, the senator is the longest-serving independent in congressional history.
"We won the first three primaries, and then the establishment got very, very nervous ... and they said, 'Hey, it would be a good idea if you dropped out," Sen. Sanders said.
Kennedy and Trump are rich. They are white privilege. They are conspiracy theorists.
They are adulters. They are deniers of facts, vaccine and elections. They hate being ignored.
Mary and Fred Trump III endorsed Harris.
All the members of the Kennedy family endorsed Harris.
