Prior to his announcement, Uygur discussed why he agreed with the candidate’s recent headline-grabbing claims insisting that it could be argued that Biden is a 'much worse' threat to democracy than former President Trump.
Uygur supported this notion, though he claimed Biden and the DNC were anti-Democratic for reasons different than Kennedy gave, saying that Biden and his party members 'love to rig' elections. 'He’s right to be concerned about Biden being a threat to democracy himself, maybe not for the reasons that he’s stating, but Biden did, you know, support anti-Democratic movements within the primary,' Uygur said. He continued, 'The Democratic Party canceled the election in Florida.
Uygur declared, 'The most surprising thing is, for the first time today, I'm now considering RFK, Jr.' Co-host Ana Kasparian appeared stunned by the announcement, exclaiming, 'What?!' on air.

And on several other things where he believes in conspiratorial theories that I don't believe in at all.' 'So why on God's green Earth would I consider RFK, Jr.
