On the day of the anticipated presidential face-off between former President Donald Trump and Vice-President Kamala Harris, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. surprised the nation by sharing a video addressing his followers with a profound plea to support Trump.
Kennedy’s message was clear from the onset; he discouraged votes in his favor under any state scenario, emphatically advising, “A lot of people are asking me if they live in a red state or a blue state, should they still be voting for me? What about swing states?”
“No matter what state you live in you should be voting for Donald Trump,” he said, backing his stance with the rationale that this strategy was crucial for promoting his ideological goals and ensuring their representation in Washington, D.C.
Kennedy touched on the pressing issue of free speech erosion, highlighting its crucial state by mentioning, “Right now, free speech is under withering and relentless attack in America and across the globe,” and pointed to the video’s existence as proof of free speech still hanging by a thread in the United States, unlike other countries where stringent state censorship prevails. He notably referenced a situation in Brazil with Twitter and relayed Kamala Harris’s caution towards Elon Musk about conforming to regulations, evidenced by, “Kamala Harris says that Musk better behave himself or he will ‘lose his privileges.’”
Kennedy criticized Harris and the Democratic establishment’s viewpoint on free speech as evidenced by Harris’s statement to Jake Tapper: “They are directly speaking to millions and millions of people without any level of oversight or regulation and that has to stop.” Kennedy warned of the dire consequences of Harris’s potential presidency, cautioning that “She thinks and the Democratic establishment thinks, that free speech is a privilege.” He prophesized a bleak future under such governance, iterating the gravity and urgency with, “This is our last chance to stop them.”
Kennedy also disclosed his engagements with Trump, underlining a mutual understanding and determination to counteract censorship, as he recounted, “Remember, he was kicked off Twitter back in 2021,” showcasing direct consequences faced by Trump which Kennedy views as reflective of broader oppressive tactics against political dissenters.
Emphasizing the critical nature of the election, Kennedy viewed every vote for Trump as indispensable, noting, “As you know, this could be a very close election. A disputed election result would be a disaster for our divided nation.”
He rallied his supporters for a unified effort towards overcoming the powerful elites criticized for damaging the nation, encapsulating his message with a call to action for November 5: “So let’s get Donald Trump elected on November 5 so that we can restore our Constitution, so that we can revive the middle class, so that we can rescue our democracy, end censorship and surveillance, unravel the war machine, protect children’s health, and make America healthy again.”
He finished off by saying, “So look at the big picture. We have to unify. We have to overthrow the entrenched elites who are now ruining our country. So let’s get Donald Trump elected on November 5 so that we can restore our Constitution, so that we can revive the middle class, so that we can rescue our democracy, end censorship and surveillance, unravel the war machine, protect children’s health, and make America healthy again.”
