Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is planning to address his campaign’s future in a speech in Phoenix, Arizona on Friday. This comes after his running mate, Nicole Shanahan, suggested that they may need to make a decision about whether to continue in the 2024 election or potentially support Donald Trump. Kennedy’s campaign has been facing challenges, with minimal public appearances and slipping polling numbers. Shanahan mentioned the possibility of dropping out of the race to avoid a potential Harris-Walz presidency, or joining forces with Trump. Kennedy has not held a public campaign event since July and Shanahan has not been visible on the trail for months. The campaign has also been plagued by negative stories, including allegations of groping and a strange incident involving a bear carcass. Trump is scheduled to host an event in the Phoenix area on the same day as Kennedy’s speech, adding to the political tension surrounding the race. Kennedy’s address will likely shed light on the direction he plans to take as the campaign progresses.
