CNN's Erin Burnett told viewers that Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s endorsement of former President Trump could have a 'huge' impact in the election against Vice President Kamala Harris.
CNN anchor Erin Burnett had a message for naysayers who are shrugging off former President Trump's 'huge' endorsement from former independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Kennedy rocked the political landscape on Friday by announcing he was suspending his campaign and backing the Republican nominee despite having been a lifelong Democrat. 'The latest swing state polls show Kennedy with five or six percent of the vote,' Burnett told viewers Friday evening.
Burnett cited a recent New York Times/Siena College poll showing Kennedy with 6% support in Arizona and Nevada and 5% in Michigan, North Carolina and Pennsylvania. Kennedy joined Trump at a rally in Glendale, Arizona, where the former candidate received a hero's welcome. Kennedy, the nephew of President John F. Kennedy and son of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, both of whom were assassinated, initially launched his presidential bid as a Democrat in a primary challenge to President Biden. But later he sought an independent run after being pushed out by the party.
During his withdrawal speech, Kennedy lit into liberal 'media organs' of the Democratic Party, accusing them of essentially colluding with the party to stifle him and create a veneer of popularity for Harris. 'Over the course of more than a year … the DNC-aligned mainstream media networks maintained a near-perfect embargo on interviews with me,' he said. 'During his 10-month presidential campaign in 1992, Ross Perot gave 34 interviews on mainstream networks.
