It is official! Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has signaled his intent to endorse Donald Trump for president.
This information came to light through a Pennsylvania court filing on Friday, where Kennedy’s independent campaign also requested to be taken off the state’s ballot, according to an AP report.
The news outlet reported:
Ahead of a planned speech, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s campaign said in a Pennsylvania court filing Friday that he is endorsing Donald Trump for president.
Kennedy’s independent campaign also requested that he be removed from the Pennsylvania ballot, though it was not immediately clear that he was officially dropping out of the race.
The New York Times reported that a spokesperson confirmed Thursday night that RFK Jr. had filed paperwork to remove his name from the Arizona ballot.
According to a Pennsylvania court filing on Friday, RFK Jr. will endorse Trump.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is scheduled to hold a press conference at 11 a.m. PST in Phoenix, Arizona, coinciding with Trump’s rally in Glendale, Arizona.
On Thursday, the Trump campaign announced that a mystery special guest will join Trump at his upcoming event, sparking widespread speculation that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. might be preparing to make a historic endorsement of Trump’s campaign.
During his visit to Howell, Michigan last week, former President Donald Trump quickly responded to the news, praising Kennedy’s decision as a major boost for his campaign.
“You’re asking me a very unusual question. I haven’t been asked that question yet. I like him a lot. I respect him a lot. I probably would if something like that would happen,” Trump said when asked if he would considered putting RFK Jr. in his administration.
