As the US elections affect the Bitcoin and cryptocurrency markets, cryptocurrency supporter and independent US presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is considering dropping out of the race to support Donald Trump in the US 2024 elections against Kamala Harris.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s vice presidential running mate, Nicole Shanahan, said she is considering dropping out of the race to support former President Donald Trump's campaign.
We Have Two Options!
Nicole Shanahan noted in a recent interview on the Impact Theory podcast that the campaign is undecided whether to continue in the race or drop out and support Republican candidate Donald Trump.
The decision to withdraw could have a major impact on the 2024 presidential election, especially in swing states, experts say.
Shanahan, who acknowledged that the campaign had a strong preference for Trump if elected, said:
“There are two possible scenarios for our campaign.
One possibility is to continue in the race and garner more than 5% of the popular vote to form the basis for a third party in future elections.
The other option is to drop out of the race and support Donald Trump, who he believes has a better chance of beating the Democrats' Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.”
Shanahan finally noted that this decision was not a simple one, as the campaign aimed at victory and the implementation of pro-crypto and other reformist agendas.
Is Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Post a Signal of Support for Trump?
Following Nicole Shanahan's statements, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. also shared the following: “As always, I am prepared to meet with leaders of any political party to achieve the goals I have served for 40 years in my career and in this campaign.”
Citing an interview in which Kennedy said Trump “has a very high probability of being the next President of the United States,” XRP lawyer MetaLawMan speculated in his X post that Kennedy could support Trump.
Interesting. @RobertKennedyJr is not disavowing his running mate’s statement about possibly dropping out of the race to endorse Trump.
Note that, in his post, he says one of his goals is to end the “politicization of enforcement agencies.”
I wonder which agency he has in mind? https://t.co/ULMJyjV1bR
