According to a press release obtained by PJ Media, presidential candidates Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Vivek Ramaswamy will be speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) Save America Investor Summit in Las Vegas, Nevada on October 18th.
“Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has a unique voice in defending the defunding of the armed bureaucracy and guaranteeing the constitutional right to medical freedom. Kennedy’s inclusion in such an important event is a reflection of the fragmentation of the leftist coalition that has awakened the Marxist to the point where traditional liberals no longer feel welcome. The breakup of the leftist coalition is happening as the conservative coalition hopes to add more blacks and Hispanics who reject gender madness, the effects of the terrible economy and the destruction of their once-safer neighborhoods.” , Matt Schlapp, president of CPAC said in the press release.
“We are also honored to have Vivek Ramaswamy, a true patriot and rising star fighting for the values of life and liberty for all Americans,” Schlapp continued. “Ramaswamy has made a massive impact on the political scene in a short time. He comes from the business world and is willing to bravely fight against the woke agenda of corporate America. Ramaswamy continues to send a powerful message about the importance of the great revival of America, the fight against Communist China, illegal immigration, calling for censorship and big technology, holding far-left institutions and the political establishment accountable.
Kennedy is expected to announce an independent bid for the presidency after being shut out by the Democratic National Committee in his primary. That’s what makes Kennedy’s inclusion at a CPAC event so troubling. While many people believe that Kennedy’s independent bid could be devastating to Joe Biden (I even thought so at one point), the 2024 election is likely to be decided by a handful of votes in a handful of ‘states, and there is no reason to be confident. that Kennedy will receive no more votes from Donald Trump, the likely GOP nominee, than from Joe Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee.
Kennedy has it he said he believes that he “will get a lot more votes from President Trump than I will from President Biden,” and he may be right. Despite polling in double digits in Democratic primary polls, his approval rating among Democrats is -5 points. Meanwhile, his approval rating among Republicans is +28 points.
From where I’m at, there’s no guarantee that Kennedy won’t take votes away from Trump, which makes Kennedy attending a CPAC event absolutely absurd. Kennedy may not be as crazy as other Democrats, but he remains a liberal and someone whose candidacy threatens the Republican Party’s chances of retaking the White House in 2024. His participation in a CPAC summit can only enhance his position among conservatives while harming their position. with the liberals.
