RFK Jr. offers Biden wacky ‘no spoiler’ deal in desperate bid to battle Trump for White House
2024 Presidential Election,Joe Biden,Robert F Kennedy Jr
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. needled President Biden Wednesday, offering a zany “no spoiler” agreement that whichever of the two candidates is least likely to defeat Donald Trump drops out of the race in October.
During a news conference in Brooklyn, the 70-year-old RFK Jr. proposed that he and Biden co-fund a 50-state poll of at least 30,000 likely voters to determine which candidate is the true “spoiler” who would ensure a victory for the 45th president by continuing to campaign.
“Ultimately, I think what we all want in this election is [for] Americans not to feel like they have to vote out of fear,” Kennedy told reporters. “That they feel like they can vote out of hope. And that is only going to happen if there’s a two-way race between me and President Trump or me and President Biden.”
