RFK Jr. predicts Trump conviction will backfire on Democrats
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an independent candidate for president in 2024, took to social media to warn that former President Donald Trump's conviction could backfire on Democrats.
"The Democratic Party's strategy is to beat President Trump in the courtroom rather than the ballot box. This will backfire in November. Even worse, it is profoundly undemocratic," Kennedy said in a post on X. "America deserves a President who can win at the ballot box without compromising our government’s separation of powers or weaponizing the courts. You can’t save democracy by destroying it first."
The independent candidate added that Democrats "are afraid they will lose in the voting booth," causing them to use a trial instead.
"I’m also running against President Trump in this election. The difference is I’m challenging him on his record," he said.
