Former Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. teed off on his former political party during Republican nominee Donald Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden on Sunday, pinning many of the country’s problems on the Democrats.

Kennedy opened up by saying that the Democrat Party left him, not the other way around.

“It is not the party any more of Martin Luther King, of Robert Kennedy, of John Kennedy,” he said. “That was the party of peace. It was the party of constitutional rights, of civil rights, of freedom of speech. It was the party that wanted to protect and nurture the middle class.”

“It was the party that stood up to censorship, to surveillance, that stood up to the CIA, the military industrial complex, and it was the party that wanted to protect public health, and women’s sports,” he continued. “My uncle Ted Kennedy wrote Title IX, which protected women’s sports in college.”

He said that today’s Democrat Party is about “dismantling women’s sports by letting men play women’s sports.”

“It’s the party of Wall Street. It’s the party of Bill Gates, who just gave $50 million to Kamala Harris,” he said. “The Harris campaign is very proud that it received the endorsement of 50 former CIA agents and officers and of John Bolton and of Dick Cheney.”

“These are the people that are trying to undermine voting rights in this country by weaponizing the federal agencies against political candidates, including me and Donald Trump and all other political candidates,” he continued. “They can’t win an election. And instead of bringing in a candidate who wins the primaries, abolish the primaries, and then picked two candidates, anointed them, without receiving votes. We don’t even know how Kamala Harris received the nomination.”

He said that the Democrats were also the “party of Wall Street, of big banks, of big data, of big tech, of the military contractors and the parties of Big Pharma, big AG, big food, and big chemicals.”

“It is the party that’s given us the sickest children in the history of the world,” he continued. “When my uncle was president, 6% of Americans had chronic disease, and we spent zero on chronic disease in this country. Today, 60% of Americans have chronic disease. This is existential for our country. We’re spending $4.3 trillion a year, five times our military budget, 77% of American boys cannot qualify for military service because of chronic disease diagnoses.”
