Kennedy Jr. and Nicole Shanahan as the We The People candidates for President and Vice President of the United States, as a result of today’s endorsement of Donald Trump for the office of President of the United States hereby withdraw their opposition to the Petition of Alexander Reber and Janneken Smucker’s,” according to court documents obtained by ABC News.
He then confirmed the news during a news conference in Arizona, but said that he’s “suspending” his campaign and “not ending it.”
“In my heart, I no longer believe that I have a realistic path of electoral victory in the face of this relentless, systematic censorship and media control,” RFK Jr. said. “So I cannot, in good conscience, ask my staff and volunteers to keep working their long hours, or ask my donors to keep giving when I cannot honestly tell them that I have a real path to the White House.”
RFK Jr. announced in July 2023 that he was running for president as an independent. Following his announcement, he was publicly slammed by a member of his family.
Trump is expected to face off against Democratic candidate Kamala Harris in a debate on Sept. 10.
