Robert Kennedy Jr. may be making a significant decision to drop out of the 2024 presidential race, as reported by ABC News. Sources suggest that he is considering endorsing GOP candidate Donald Trump, although this decision has not been finalized yet.
The speculation surrounding Kennedy’s exit and potential Trump endorsement gained momentum after his vice presidential pick, Nicole Shanahan, hinted at the possibility during a podcast interview. Kennedy’s recent tweet and willingness to engage with leaders from any political party further fueled these rumors.
Market indicators on Polymarket now reflect a 99% likelihood of Kennedy withdrawing from the race, while the probability of a Harris victory has decreased to 46%. Interestingly, the price of bitcoin has seen a 3% increase to $61,000 within the last 24 hours, possibly reacting to this unfolding political news.
Kennedy is expected to make a national address from Phoenix at 2 pm ET on Friday, which could potentially provide more clarity on his intentions and upcoming plans. Stay tuned for further updates on this developing story.
