Following RFK Jr.'s brilliant speech in Arizona on Friday - one of the best in recent memory - social media was abuzz with how his eventual endorsement of Trump would impact the 2024 race.
Some said it would help Trump; others insisted that Harris would benefit. The New York Times thought the impact was uncertain.
RFK's grievances were aimed at the Democratic Party but could have also been against the old GOP. There's no GOP or Democratic Party anymore. After RFK and Trump shook hands on a stage with 20,000 supporters cheering an iconic moment, it became clear that both leaders were up against the UniParty in Washington.
RFK could be a valuable asset to Trump on the campaign trail if he can highlight the dangers of the UniParty to America's status as the democratic leader of the free world. We have repeatedly documented how the UniParty has used the Deep State levers of power to go after Trump through two impeachments, the J6 Committee co-chaired by Liz Cheney, and the 94 court cases. RFK, another victim of Democrats' lawfare, can also eloquently speak about the Dems' dirty tactics to keep him out of the race.
In New York State, a judge denied RFK a spot on the ballot on a technicality after a group affiliated with the Democrats brought a lawsuit. A legal challenge filed in early August in Pennsylvania sought to have him off the ballot in that crucial battleground state. RFK won challenges brought against him in Maine, New Jersey, and North Carolina. Jill Stein, the Green Party candidate, posted her acknowledgment on X.
We may disagree with RFK Jr. about many things, but he's right about how the Democratic Party uses lawfare and dirty tricks to suppress democratic competition and voter choice. The Dems preach about "saving democracy," but in reality, they're working overtime to stamp it out.
It was an extraordinary rebuke of Beltway operating tactics, providing new fuel to Trump to say that he had been right all along.
RFK is determined to help defeat the UniParty, just as Trump has been vowing to defeat the Deep State for the last nine years. On the ground electorally, RFK, by withdrawing his candidacy in ten battleground states and staying on the ballots in the blue and red states, could significantly help Trump. RFK's goal is to help persuade and direct RFK votes to Trump in the battleground states. Over 100,000 volunteers spent countless hours to help place RFK on the ballot in at least 23 states. A fraction of these volunteers appearing for Trump campaign duties could make a difference.
In the deep blue states, RFK aims to draw some of Harris's votes to himself, thereby narrowing the margin between Harris and Trump, potentially even flipping a close state to Trump. In the red states, he wants to draw Harris's votes to himself and improve Trump's margin over Harris as a matter of record.
Country above party. The UniParty eschews all conformance to the moral principles that made their parties initially famous. When Speaker Mike Johnson ascended to the top job in the House, the GOP's rules committee made it clear that Johnson should not bring any proposal that did not have majority support from within his ranks to a floor vote. When the $61 billion Ukraine aid package didn't have majority support from within the GOP, Johnson shamelessly ditched his party's rules to seek help from the Democrats to push through a vote and held on to the Speaker's gavel. Johnson said later that he placed country above party.
Throughout the 2024 primary season, the Democrat Party establishment hid Joe Biden's senility issues from the public, with the media in tow. They effectively prevented a meaningful challenge to Biden in the primaries by disallowing debates with RFK Jr, Dean Phillips, Marianne Williamson, or Jason Palmer. Had they allowed for an open primary, America would have known earlier in the year that Biden was unfit to run his Party's affairs and was probably unfit to be president.
When Trump handily defeated Biden in Atlanta, Democratic Party leaders engineered a coup to force him to withdraw from the race using the threat of a 25th Amendment sanction, the ultimate tool that the Constitution provides to depose a sitting president. And they installed another puppet in Kamala Harris, who had been written off as recently as last year as a lightweight politician who cackles more than she speaks. Why Harris? She would be the safest candidate to easily assume the Biden campaign war chest.
For the UniParty, the guiding principle is winning at all costs; all moral principles be damned. And the pathway to winning is to become more entrenched in Beltway power, more entangled with K Street lobbyists, and aspire to life-long incumbency by using campaign contributions to silence political opposition while showering federal largesse on constituents in the face of ever-mounting debt.
In his speech, RFK Jr. lamented that the Democratic Party had left him:
As you know, I left the party in October because it had departed so dramatically from the core values I grew up with. It has become the party of War, censorship, big Pharma, big Tech, big Ag, and big money.
What he didn't say was that the old GOP believes in the very same priorities - that is, that the Uniparty is alive and well.
RFK's alliance with Trump is meant to target the UniParty by placing the future of America first and taking on the dangers of an unelected Deep State engaging in political activities and running the government. RFK-Trump also aims to contain rampant illegal immigration, stop forever wars, and get rid of media bias—each issue has flourished under UniParty rule.
If Trump wins, it could be the single most crucial blow to the UniParty.
