TRANSCRIPT: Every Word of RFK Jr's Epic Anti-Establishment Speech

First this: This Is No Longer The Presidential Race You Think It Is  "Now this is about the deep state.".  Sadly this is behind a paywall, but you need to know things like this are now being written. TD

"In the name of saving democracy, the Democratic Party set itself to dismantling it; lacking confidence... that its candidate could win in a fair election at the voting booth, the DNC waged continual legal warfare against both President Trump and myself." . . . 

"On Friday afternoon, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. announced that he is suspending his campaign and endorsing Donald Trump. In a speech that lasted over 45 minutes, he explained his rationale for dropping out, how he wants to help Trump, and what he hopes his legacy will be. 

"It was a powerful, epic speech, and even though conservatives have plenty to disagree with RFK over, his idea of a unity campaign with Trump, combined with his desire to make America healthy again, is admirable.

"Here's the speech in its entirety. Forgive me if there are errors; I tried to catch them all.

. . . "In the name of saving democracy, the Democratic Party set itself to dismantling it; lacking confidence... that its candidate could win in a fair election at the voting booth, the DNC waged continual legal warfare against both President Trump and myself.

Each time that our volunteers turned in those towering boxes of signatures needed to get on the ballot, the DNC dragged us into court, state after state, attempting to erase their work and to subvert the will of the voters who had signed those petitions. It deployed DNC-aligned judges to throw me and other candidates off the ballot and to throw President Trump in jail.

It ran a sham primary that was rigged to prevent any serious challenge to President Biden. Then, when a predictably bungled debate performance precipitated the palace coup against President Biden, the same shadowy DNC operatives appointed his successor, also without an election.

They installed a candidate who was so unpopular with voters that she dropped out in 2020 without winning a single delegate. My uncle and my father both relished debate. They prided themselves on their capacity to go toe to toe with any opponent in the battle over ideas.

They would be astonished to learn of a Democratic Party presidential nominee who, like Vice President Harris, has not appeared in a single interview or an unscripted encounter with voters for 35 days. This is profoundly undemocratic. How are people to choose when they don't know whom they are choosing, and how can this look to the rest of the world?

My father and my uncle were always conscious of America's image abroad because of our nation's role as the template for democracy, a role model for democratic processes, and the leader of the free world. Instead of showing us her substance and character, the DNC and its media organs engineered a surge of popularity for Vice President Harris based upon, well, nothing.

No policies, no interviews, no debates, only smoke and mirrors and balloons in a highly produced Chicago circus. There in Chicago, a string of Democratic speakers mentioned Donald Trump 147 times just on the first day." . . .

Read the entire far-ranging speech here to see why a man who is told by media to hate Donald Trump instead supports him. TD
