During a rambling speech in Phoenix AZ on Friday, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he was suspending his presidential campaign, but not ending it, while throwing his support behind Donald Trump. Kennedy opened his speech with a scathing rebuke of the Democrat Party and President Joe Biden, who he likened to Russian dictator Vladimir Putin and the latter's control of the Russian media. He also called out the US mainstream media for ignoring his campaign and for censoring information during the 2020 presidential election campaign, naming the outlets: ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and MSNBC. Friday evening, Kennedy joined Trump at a rally in Glendale AZ, where the former president introduced him. “Tonight, I’m very pleased to welcome a man who has been an incredible champion of so many values that we all share and we’ve shared a long time,” said Trump. “For the past sixteen months, Bobby has run an extraordinary campaign for president of the United States." "And I mean this sincerely, if he had been allowed to enter the Democrat primary, he would have easily beaten Joe Biden but they wouldn’t let him in.” Trump said Kennedy’s candidacy was an inspiration for millions of Americans, raising “critical issues that have been too long ignored in this country and brought people from across the political spectrum in a positive campaign, grounded in the American values that his father, Robert F. Kennedy and his uncle, President John F. Kennedy, and I know they are looking down now and they are very, very proud of Bobby.” “He lost his father and uncle in service to our country and Bobby himself was subject to repeated threats to his safety during the course of his campaign while being denied protection by the Harris/Biden administration.” Referring to Kennedy, Trump added, “We’ve been a little bit on the opposite side of the equation but I will say this, he is a brilliant man who loves the people of this country as much as anybody can love this country.”Kennedy took the stage, saying, “I got a call from the president and we had a very good talk and he invited me to come see him the next day.” “We met again a couple of weeks later in Florida and we talked about things, not the things that separate us, because we don’t agree on everything, but on the values and issues that bind us together,” said Kennedy. Trump added, “I can tell you we are both in this to do what’s right for the country.”
