RFK Jr. Adviser Makes Shocking Admission about Campaign’s True Goal
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been described as a spoiler candidate for president by supporters of Joe Biden, and even by Kennedy himself. But the Kennedy campaign’s New York director is taking it a step further.In a meeting with Republicans in the Empire State, Rita Palma said that “our mutual enemy is Biden.” “The only way that Trump can even, remote possibility of taking New York is if Bobby is on the ballot. If it’s Trump versus Biden, Biden wins. Biden wins six days, seven days a week. With Bobby in the mix, anything can happen,” Palma said on video of the meeting, dated Friday and viewed by CNN. The video, which was posted to YouTube before being taken down, showed Palma arguing for Kennedy’s candidacy as a way to block Biden from being reelected. “The only way for him, for Bobby, to shake it up and to get rid of Biden is if he’s on the ballot in every state, including New York,” she said. Palma even told people to go to Pennsylvania, a swing state, to knock on doors for Trump, saying that she had done so in 2016 and 2020.This is unusual: You don’t often see a campaign official telling voters to help another campaign in a battleground state, but here’s RFK Jr.’s NY state director telling people to go knock on doors in PA for Trump. https://t.co/SNwBERLFxh pic.twitter.com/hqxnGbGj5R— Meryl Kornfield (@MerylKornfield) April 8, 2024She described the scenario of neither Biden nor Trump getting the required 270 electoral votes to win the 2024 election. If that were to happen, the House of Representatives would decide who will be the next president of the United States. Palma argued that Kennedy winning blue states like New York could make that happen. “Who are they going to pick? If it’s a Republican Congress, they’ll pick Trump. So we’re rid of Biden either way,” she said.video shows RFK Jr’s NY director laying out a clear plan:“The Kennedy voter & the Trump voter—our mutual enemy is Biden. … if nobody gets to 270, Congress picks the president.
