(End of the American Dream)—Is Donald Trump about to get the key endorsement that he needs to win the presidency? There have been a lot of twists and turns this election season, and now there has been another one. It is being reported that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will drop out of the race on Friday and officially endorse Trump.
In such a close race, this endorsement could potentially make a world of difference. Some recent polls have shown Trump with a narrow lead, but other recent polls have shown Kamala Harris with a narrow lead. If RFK Jr. can deliver a bump of even a couple of percentage points for Trump, that would be huge.
At this moment, RFK Jr. is not publicly confirming anything. But ABC News and NBC News have both spoken to “anonymous sources” that say that RFK Jr. will definitely drop out and endorse Trump on Friday…
Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. plans to exit the presidential race Friday and endorse GOP nominee Donald Trump, according to ABC News and NBC News citing anonymous sources.
If you go to his official campaign website, you will see that Kennedy is scheduled to address the country about “his path forward” on Friday morning…
PHOENIX, AZ—AUGUST 21, 2024—Independent Presidential Candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will address the nation live on Friday about the present historical moment and his path forward.
WHAT: Kennedy to Address the Nation
WHEN: Friday, Aug. 23 at 2 p.m. ET/11 a.m. PT, arrive by 10 a.m. PT
WHERE: Phoenix, AZ (address will be provided to registered press)
Interestingly, Trump is also scheduled to be in Phoenix on Friday.
Do you think that this is just a coincidence? Of course not.
According to ABC News, there is a possibility that Kennedy could appear on stage at Trump’s event on Friday night, but nothing has been “finalized” at this point…
One possible scenario being discussed is for Kennedy to appear on stage with Trump at an event in Phoenix on Friday, though the sources cautioned that Kennedy’s thinking could always change and sources close to Trump say no plan for Friday is finalized.
This is a truly stunning development.
On Wednesday, JD Vance confirmed that there has been a lot of communication between Kennedy’s campaign and Trump’s campaign…
Trump’s running mate, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, said in an interview Wednesday that “there’s been a lot of communication back and forth” between Kennedy and his campaign.
“I haven’t spoken to RFK personally, but I know there’s been a lot of communication back and forth between RFK, between the campaign, between this campaign,” Vance said. “Look, our argument to RFK, and I’ll make it right now, because, of course, he hasn’t dropped out yet, is, look: If you want a Democratic Party that protected American workers and stood for strong borders, maybe disagreed with Republicans on things like tax policy, that party doesn’t exist anymore.”
Apparently there are three prominent individuals that have been key in persuading Kennedy to endorse Trump.
According to NBC News, those three individuals are Donald Trump Jr., Tucker Carlson, and a very wealthy donor named Omeed Malik…
Persuading Kennedy to back Trump has been an ongoing project of Trump’s eldest son, Donald Jr., former Fox News host Tucker Carlson and wealthy donor Omeed Malik, according to a source familiar with the efforts who requested anonymity to divulge internal campaign deliberations. The three men have worked behind the scenes in meetings and calls with both principals to negotiate Kennedy’s exit and endorsement, the source said.
Ultimately, this is how the game is played. It is all about making deals, and Trump is about to make one of the most important deals that he has ever made.
One of the reasons why Kennedy may be making a move now is because his campaign has just about run out of money…
Kennedy’s campaign appeared to be running out of money, according to Federal Election Commission filings published earlier this week. At the end of last month, Kennedy’s campaign owed close to $3.5 million and had only $3.9 million on hand.
Kennedy could stay in the race and run up enormous debts, but at this point it has become clear that he has no path to victory.
Sadly, it takes a ton of money to run for office these days, and that is particularly true if you are trying to run for president. So what will the race look like going forward?
Many conservatives are convinced that Kennedy’s endorsement will be an enormous boost for Trump. For example, Darren Beattie believes that Kennedy’s endorsement could give Trump an “immediate” two or three percentage point bump in the polls in all of the swing states…
If this is true, it’s a game-changer. Insiders believe it could upend the race, giving President Trump an immediate two- to three-point bump in all swing states, with even more growth down the road. Now, imagine RFK Jr. hitting the campaign trail for Trump—that would be huge.
On the other hand, many on the left are trying to downplay the impact that Kennedy’s endorsement is going to have on the race. The following comes from the Washington Post…
Perhaps the most important point of consideration here, again, is that there simply aren’t that many Kennedy supporters. If Trump picks up fully half of them, it adds a few points to his national support and, according to 538’s average, still has him trailing Harris. Making the announcement Friday might be an effort to step on any improvement Harris sees from the convention but, it’s not as though Kennedy has a big base or is viewed with broad favorability by Americans. (Among those with an opinion, he’s viewed more negatively than positively by a six-point margin in 538’s average.)
So who is right? We will just have to wait and see.

At this stage, we are looking at a very close race. According to Time Magazine, this election will be decided by just seven ultra-important swing states.
Those swing states are Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona and Nevada. Hundreds of millions of dollars will be poured into those states, and much of the rest of the nation will be pretty much ignored.
Both sides feel like the stakes couldn’t be any higher, and it is literally going to feel like the end of the world for whichever side loses.
Personally, I am entirely convinced that there will be far more chaos after election day than before it.
We truly are moving into uncharted territory, and I don’t think that our country is ready to handle what is about to happen.
