Supporters of former President Donald Trump are insisting RFK Jr. and his freshly announced running mate will hurt President Joe Biden's chances.
After Kennedy announced his running mate, attorney Nicole Shanahan, the former president and his supporters claimed that the Kennedy-Shanahan ticket would take more Democratic votes than Republican votes, in what is expected to be a close race between Biden and Trump.on Wednesday night that he has “no doubt” that a third party candidate — like Kennedy — would “bleed votes” away from Democrats.
“That’s why they are scurrying around running ads in Detroit trying to keep Black voters in Detroit loyal to the Democrat Party. It’s just not working,” he added.on Wednesday. Rove agreed the Biden campaign “should worry” and pointed out that a strong third-party showing by Kennedy could be a problem by citing 2016 and 2020 election data.
“So even if they get a very small fraction of the vote, if it’s in the right places, it can cause enormous harm,” Rove said.on Wednesday that if Kennedy makes the ballot, he would take votes away from Biden and give Trump a victory. “And if RFK being in this race helps that, you know what, I think that could be a good thing for this country, and I’m against any Democratic efforts to try to remove him or keep him off the ballot — as they will try to do,” he added.
