We live in a time of unprecedented political turmoil. From the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, to the coup against President Biden to remove him as the Democratic presidential nominee, to the elevation of Vice President Kamala Harris as the “heir apparent” at the recently concluded Democratic convention — these events have exposed the fact that those in control of the Democratic party care more about retaining power than “saving our democracy.” These events proved that corrupt “deep state” and “big industry” players are fighting to retain power by any means necessary — including murder, assassination and censorship!

I think we can safely describe the American political system as being in the ICU on life support. Only by unifying can the American people defeat those who want to destroy our constitutional foundations and establish total authoritarian control. Today, I reach out my hand in solidarity to urge those who have always voted for Democratic candidates to join the #WalkAway Campaign. Walk away from the undemocratically selected and corrupt Harris-Walz ticket, and join former Democrat Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. in supporting President Trump’s campaign.

Kennedy’s Historic Decision

Last Friday, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., spoke to supporters to explain his decision to suspend his campaign and endorse Donald Trump for president. The transcript of this speech is available on IM-1776.

Kennedy blamed the power brokers running the Democratic party for using lawfare to block his access to the Democratic primary process, and described how Democrats also sued his campaign to try and keep him off the ballot as an independent candidate. Kennedy said, “In the name of saving democracy, a Democratic Party set itself to dismantle it. Lacking confidence that its candidate could win a fair election at the voting booth, the DNC waged continual legal warfare against both President Trump and myself.”

Kennedy also noted that he is not ending his campaign. He continued, “I want everyone to know that I am not terminating my campaign. I am simply suspending it… My name will remain on the ballot in most states. If you live in a blue state, you can vote for me without harming or helping President Trump or Vice President Harris. In red states, the same will apply. I encourage you to vote for me.”

However, Kennedy is withdrawing his name from the ballot in swing states, noting that “polling consistently showed that by staying on the ballot in the battleground states, I would likely hand the election over to the Democrats, with whom I disagree on the most existential issues: censorship, war, and chronic disease.”

Censorship, war, and chronic disease

Kennedy spent the rest of this speech diving deeply into his concerns regarding censorship, endless foreign wars, and the chronic disease epidemic. I encourage you to watch the speech or read the transcript to better understand his concerns. These are the policy issues that drove him to support the Trump campaign.

Later on Friday afternoon, Kennedy appeared at President Trump’s rally in Arizona, where he was greeted with thunderous applause and chants of “Bobby! Bobby! Bobby!” President Trump, during his introduction of Kennedy noted that “We are both in this to do what’s right for this country.”

Kennedy and Trump focused on unifying America: “We talked, not about the things that separate us, because we don’t agree on everything, but on the values and the issues that bind us together.”

Don’t you want healthy children?

Kennedy said, “One of the issues he talked about was having safe food, and ending the chronic disease epidemic. Our children are now the unhealthiest, sickest children in the world. Don’t you want healthy children? And don’t you want the chemicals out of our food? And don’t you want the regulatory agencies to be free from corporate corruption?”

Kennedy also focused on ending wars and rebuilding America’s industrial base, asking “And don’t you want a president who’s going to get us out of the wars and who’s going to rebuild the middle class in this country?”

Finally he asked, “And don’t you want a president who’s going to protect America’s freedoms? And who is going to protect us against totalitarianism?”

Freedom or Totalitarianism

This election is no longer a Republican vs. Democrat election. It’s bigger than that. This election is about choosing freedom or accepting a broken and corrupt system of corporate and bureaucratic totalitarianism. Regardless of your past political decisions, I am confident that we share many of the same concerns on important issues. We can work together to save America.

Kennedy pointed out that he disagrees with Trump on many issues, but noted that “…we are aligned with each other on other key issues, like ending of forever wars, ending the childhood disease epidemics, securing the border, protecting freedom of speech, unraveling the corporate capture of our regulatory agencies, and getting the U.S. intelligence agencies out of the business of propagandizing and censoring and surveilling Americans and interfering with our elections.”

No candidate is perfect. You don’t have to like Trump or Kennedy to support their important decision to work to bring unity to our country. Let’s work together to achieve our shared goals as described by RFK Jr. I hope you join me in supporting these policy goals by voting for President Trump and Republican candidates up and down the ticket. It’s time to unify and reject the radical goals of the Marxists who have captured the once-great Democratic party. Let’s Make America Healthy Again.
