<p>Independent presidential candidate <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/robert-f-kennedy-jr" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Robert F. Kennedy Jr.</a> eviscerated the legacy media and Democrat Party in a scathing speech on Friday where he explained why he was suspending his campaign and endorsing Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.</p>
<p>Kennedy made the remarks during a press conference in Phoenix, Arizona, where he explained how today&#8217;s modern Democrat Party is vastly different than the party he grew up with.</p>
<p>&#8220;Back then, the Democrats were the champions of the Constitution, of civil rights,&#8221; he said. &#8220;The Democrats stood against authoritarianism, against censorship, against colonialism, imperialism, and unjust wars. We were the party of labor, of the working class. The Democrats were the party of government transparency and the champion of the environment.&#8221;</p>
<p>He noted that the party has morphed into the party of &#8220;war, censorship, corruption, big pharma, big tech, big AG, and big money,&#8221; adding that he left the party &#8220;when it abandoned democracy by canceling the primary&#8221; to hide the cognitive decline of President Joe Biden.</p>
<p>RFK said that the term &#8220;democracy&#8221; has &#8220;become little more than a slogan&#8221; for the Democrat Party.</p>
<p>&#8220;In the name of saving democracy, the Democratic Party set itself to dismantling it, lacking confidence in its candidate, that its candidate could win in a fair election at the voting booth, the DNC waged continual legal warfare against both President Trump and myself,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Each time that our volunteers turned in those towering boxes of signatures needed to get on the ballot, the DNC dragged us into court, state after state, attempting to erase their work and to subvert the will of the voters who had signed those petitions.&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="https://www.amiracist.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.amiracist.com/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1724211156439000&amp;usg=AOvVaw2-L2DitSaIUj5wz8v0bgxx"><b>Tickets for “Am I Racist?” are on sale NOW! Buy here for a theater near you.</b></a></p>
<p>&#8220;It deployed DNC-aligned judges to throw me and other candidates off the ballot and to throw President Trump in jail,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;It ran a sham primary that was rigged to prevent any serious challenge to President Biden. Then when a predictably bungled debate performance precipitated the palace coup against President Biden, the same shadowy DNC operatives appointed his successor, also without an election.&#8221;</p>
<p>RFK noted that Harris was &#8220;so unpopular with voters that she dropped out in 2020 without winning a single delegate.&#8221;</p>
<p>He said that his father and uncle would be appalled that Harris was given the nomination and has avoided all interviews and unscripted encounters with voters.</p>
<p>&#8220;My father and my uncle were always conscious of America&#8217;s image abroad because of our nation&#8217;s role as the template for democracy, the role model for democratic processes, and the leader of the free world,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Instead of showing us her substance and character, the DNC and its media organs engineered a surge of popularity for Vice President Harris based upon nothing: no policies, no interviews, no debates, only smoke and mirrors and balloons in a highly produced Chicago circus.&#8221;</p>
<p>RFK said that Democrats aren&#8217;t focused on telling voters about Harris&#8217; policies because they are focused on casting hate onto Trump.</p>
<p>&#8220;How did the Democratic Party choose a candidate that has never done an interview or debate during the entire election cycle?&#8221; he asked. &#8220;They did it by weaponizing the government agencies. They did it by abandoning democracy. They did it by suing the opposition and by disenfranchising American voters. What most alarms me isn&#8217;t how the Democratic Party conducts its internal affairs or runs its candidates. What alarms me is the resort to censorship and media control and the weaponization of the federal agencies.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;When a U.S. president colludes with or outright coerces media companies to censor political speech, it&#8217;s an attack on our most sacred right, of free expression, and that&#8217;s the very right upon which all of our other constitutional rights rest,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;President Biden mocked Vladimir Putin&#8217;s 88% landslide in the Russian elections, observing that Putin and his party controlled the Russian press and that Putin prevented serious opponents from appearing on the ballot; but here in America, the DNC also prevented opponents from appearing on the ballot, and our television networks expose themselves as Democratic Party organs.&#8221;</p>
<p>RFK said that legacy media companies have effectively banned him from interviews during the election in what he said was a coordinated effort with the Democrat Party that included vile smears against him.</p>
<p>He said that he decided to support Trump because they aligned on free speech, the war in Ukraine, and the war on children.</p>
<p>He added that he was working to get his name removed from the ballot in 10 swing states where, if he remained on the ballot, he would be helping Democrat presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris.</p>
