RFK Jr. Expected to Endorse Trump in Phoenix

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is expected to make a significant announcement on Friday in Phoenix, amid widespread speculation that he may drop out of the race and endorse former President Donald Trump. Reports indicate that Kennedy’s campaign has been struggling financially and that his running mate, Nicole Shanahan, publicly discussed the possibility of joining forces with Trump to avoid drawing votes away from him. Multiple sources, including Kennedy insiders, suggest that an endorsement of Trump could be imminent, though no final decision has been confirmed. This potential move has raised concerns among Democrats, with some accusing Kennedy of being a 'MAGA-funded fringe candidate'. Additionally, Kennedy's campaign has faced challenges in securing ballot access and his polling numbers have declined since President Joe Biden withdrew from the race. The announcement coincides with Trump's scheduled rally in nearby Glendale, Arizona.
