RFK Jr. slams Dems for 'hidden' primary process after Biden leaves

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. criticized Democrats for allegedly rigging the primary process, comparing it to the election in Russia after President Biden dropped out of the race and claimed he had been banned from “Democratic networks.”

During an interview with Fox News host Jesse Watters, RFK Jr., who runs as an independent, slammed Democrats for undercover political machinations. He went on to claim that the party had made a “strategic mistake” in siding with Biden and had alienated voters by doing so. He pointed to rule changes also aimed at keeping him off the ballot in certain states.

“A few weeks ago, President Biden was ridiculing Vladimir Putin, who won 88% of the vote in Russia, saying that it was a fixed election because President Putin was making sure that no adversary could challenge him, and also that he had rigged the press so the press wouldn't cover his adversaries,” Kennedy Jr. said. pointing the finger at the president. “The Democratic Party managed to do the same thing.”

Kennedy thanked Fox News for not banning him from airing his views. He accused “democratic networks” of freezing him out to silence him.

“I haven't been cleared by any of the Democratic networks: ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN. Fox has allowed me. You've let me speak, you've debated me, you've given me a platform even if you don't agree with the things I say”, he said. “I think this is the way the media is supposed to work”.

RFK Jr. he also went on Fox News Monday morning and again blasted Democrats for shoving a “jammed” nomination process down voters' throats. He also went on to accuse the Biden administration of denying him Secret Service protection for political reasons. The independent candidate claimed that previously about a third of all incoming donations went to protection through private security and it was a blatant effort by Democrats to dry up his campaign funds.

Kennedy charged that the contest for the White House is now a “two-man race,” a claim that remains to be seen.

“Speaking at a hastily called press conference from his family's famous compound in Hyannis Port, Mass., on Sunday, Kennedy praised Biden while accusing Democratic Party leaders of 'hiding' his mental decline.” Fox News reported

“I want to start by praising President Biden for a career in public service — a long, long career and representing and serving our country and for his handling of the many hardships and challenges, personal challenges and tragedies that he faced in his lifetime with so much admirable behavior and the empathy that comes from those experiences,” Kennedy said.

“The DNC's reaction to this obvious condition was to hide it from the American public and use its power over the Democratic Party's nominating process to ensure that no one could compete with President Biden in a way that would expose their shortcomings,” he said. he held

He also ripped former President Trump. A tactic that so far has not worked for the presidential candidate.

“President Trump has a connection with the American people, a populist connection,” RFK Jr. noted. “But in many ways, it's the same fraudulent connection that we saw with the DNC over the past year, obscuring a real purpose of their goal, which was to give us a president who … represented corporate interests rather than of the American public.”

And then it was time to bash Vice President Kamala Harris.

“If the Democrats do what I suspect they will, which is to anoint Kamala Harris, a vice president who is monumentally unpopular within her own party … they're doing it because it's the easiest way to keep the money,” he said. Kennedy.

He also suggested that he would consider accepting the Democratic nomination if offered.

“I would certainly listen to the elders of the party if they came to me, I would discuss something with them,” Kennedy offered. “I am the only presidential candidate who can beat Donald Trump, and if I were them, I would, and I would certainly listen to their proposals.”

“I wouldn't be the favorite, because when I left the Democratic Party, it was very clear that, and that's the only reason I left that day, that the rules were rigged to prevent me from winning. “, he remarked. “Therefore, I would be in the same position as [presidential candidates] Dean Phillips today or Marianne Williamson, who is, you know, marginalized.”

Kennedy concluded, “I'm very happy to be running where I am and I think I can win this election. I think it's a two-man race or a two-person race at this point. Let me put it this way. And, ya you know, and that I'm in the best position to win.”
