Iran Press/ America: Independent US Presidential candidate Robert F Kennedy Jr is planning to drop his bid to become the next president of the United States and endorse Republican Party nominee Donald Trump, US media has reported.
Kennedy, the third child of liberal icon Robert F Kennedy, is considering announcing the end of his campaign during an appearance with Trump in Phoenix, Arizona, on Friday, multiple media outlets reported on Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter.
Kennedy, who initially ran for the Democratic Party nomination before going independent, could boost Trump’s chances in November’s election if he drops out, especially in battleground states that were won by razor-thin margins in 2016 and 2020.
Polls have consistently indicated that Kennedy, an environmental attorney with a history of skepticism towards vaccines, has been receiving greater support from Trump compared to the Democratic nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris. 219
