In a recent appearance on CNN’s Erin Burnett OutFront, independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. boldly stated that President Joe Biden poses a greater threat to democracy than former President Donald Trump. Kennedy staunchly declared that Biden, unlike any previous president, is wielding federal agencies to silence political viewpoints, making him a dangerous menace to democratic values.

Kennedy also acknowledged the turmoil surrounding the January 6 riot and acknowledged the potential threat posed by Trump’s efforts to challenge the election. Nevertheless, he firmly asserted that Biden’s actions, particularly in suppressing political speech through federal agencies, are the real danger to democracy. Kennedy made it clear that he refuses to sugarcoat his disapproval of Trump’s behavior, acknowledging several appalling actions by the former President.
The independent candidate has prominently positioned himself as a viable alternative to the polarizing policies of both Biden and Trump, aiming to sway voters from both major parties. While current polls may not indicate a victor in Kennedy’s future, it’s undeniable that his presence could significantly impact the outcome for either Biden or Trump in the general election.
