In his endorsement of President Trump, RFK answers the call to make America great again.
When the richest man in the world and the namesake of a man with a rich history in American politics come together, when the former is a billionaire and a former immigrant to America and the latter is the grandson of a multimillionaire, the son of a senator, and the nephew of a president, when the two are Elon Musk and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the public takes note. When a veteran and a former congresswoman, who is also no longer a Democrat, joins them, when Tulsi Gabbard joins Musk and Kennedy in endorsing President Trump, voters take note.
Because all three are independents, because they think and speak for themselves, because they are free of the Democrat Party, and because they stand with President Trump, in defense of freedom, they represent a new dawn—a new day—for members of both parties. RFK Jr.’s speech is a testament to this new beginning because in suspending his campaign and endorsing President Trump, Kennedy proves he is a man of courage. By campaigning with President Trump, Kennedy proves he is a man of principle.
On the other side stands the antidemocratic party of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.
In contrast to these two, in contrast to a hack like Harris and a lackey like Walz, stands America’s party.
In Kennedy stands a man who transcends party loyalty.
In Kennedy stands a man who refuses to be a party to the fast undoing of liberty at home and restraint abroad.
If you have not listened to or read Kennedy’s speech, please do.
The speech is a declaration of independence—a statement of purpose—regarding the need to dissolve the political bands that have connected Americans to the Democrat Party.
The speech is also a tribute to President Kennedy’s maxim that sometimes party loyalty asks too much.
By detailing the decline and fall of the Democrat Party, explaining how the party does not represent the interests of workers or work for the good of the national interest, mourning the party’s war on freedom and its insistence on waging war against Russia—by making the case against the Democrat Party, RFK Jr. makes the case for President Trump.
The speech is not spiteful in the least.
The speech is poignant and personal with regard to the Democrat Party, and profound, inspiring, and universal with regard to liberty and justice for all.
That Democrats have responded to the speech with a series of personal attacks against Kennedy, that Kennedy’s own siblings have attacked him too, that the attacks accuse Kennedy of being everything from a drug dealer to a psychotic—all this proves Kennedy’s point: that the religion of politics, which is the official religion of the Democrat Party, is a faith without mercy and a creed without virtue.
That the media has also attacked Kennedy, that CNN cut away as he indicted the media for inaccurate and irresponsible reporting—for deliberately not reporting the truth about Covid or China or Ukraine or Russia—proves Kennedy’s point about the media: that we do not have an independent and unbiased press.
In defending the First Amendment, Kennedy reveals the through line between speech and action, between words and deeds.
Kennedy shows how a party at war with the First Amendment is the enemy of putting America first. He explains how the Democrat Party’s opposition to free speech is essential to—it is the basis of—its support of perpetual war: that censorship is a prerequisite for the wars Joe Biden wants and Kamala Harris wants others to fight.
In making the case against the forever wars of Biden and Harris, Kennedy shows how the Democrat Party is the enemy of peace.
In making the case against war with Russia, in making the case with facts—with reason—instead of insults or aspersions, Kennedy shows what it means to be a statesman. He shows what it means to analyze a situation instead of inflaming it. Most importantly, he shows what it means to the people of Ukraine and Russia—what it means to see the flower of Ukraine and the youth of Russia die in the Donbas; what it means to see an entire generation die for nothing.
Never has a Democrat sounded as pro-life as RFK Jr.
Never has the Democrat Party sounded less pro-peace than it does now.
Never has Joe Biden, who likes to sound like JFK and RFK to the point of plagiarizing them, sounded more like the lesser man; a man unworthy of the White House and unfit to anoint anyone as his successor.
At the same time, never has a speaker sounded more like a Democrat in the tradition of President Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy Sr.
In his call to get America moving again, in his call to get Americans moving so they may be active and fit, RFK Jr. leads by example.
In his endorsement of President Trump, RFK answers the call to make America great again.
In contrast, the Democrat Party calls for more of the worst: more censorship, more war, more crime, more illness, more inflation, more division.
Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Tim Walz have the audacity to believe they have the right to speak to us. And so, they condescend to us; they patronize us; they speak down to us. They would be wise to listen to us instead.
Biden, Harris and Walz would be wise to listen to what RFK Jr. has to say. But because they are too proud to stop talking and too selfish to let anyone else speak, they do not know how tiresome and absurd they sound.
We know better, not because we think we are always right but because we know some things—things like liberty and security—are constants; the two together are always just.
The two must always be one.
RFK Jr. knows this, as does President Trump.
The two, Kennedy and Trump, know we have a right to be free.
They also know we cannot be free unless we are safe.
Liberty and security, freedom and safety—the two are the lifeblood of democracy.
No wonder the two are foreign to the Democrat Party.
No wonder the two have an ally in RFK Jr. and a champion in President Trump.
