The independent presidential campaign of Robert F. Kennedy Jr, known for his pro-crypto stance, is considering a major change. In a recent interview, vice presidential candidate Nicole Shanahan revealed that the campaign is debating whether to continue or to withdraw and endorse Donald Trump. This decision could have a major impact on the 2024 election, especially in swing states.
Speaking on the “Impact Theory” podcast, Shanahan outlined two possible paths: stay in the race to win about 5 percent of the h vote, or withdraw and support Trump, who she said has a better chance of defeating Democratic candidates Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.
Shanahan noted that the decision is difficult because the campaign is based on a pro-crypto and reform agenda. She stressed that she has not invested millions to be a “disruptor” candidate, fueling speculation about a potential alliance with Trump among pro-crypto voters.
Kennedy’s campaign has received support from those who see cryptocurrencies as a way to promote economic freedom by reducing government control. In Platform X, Kennedy affirmed his willingness to work with leaders of each party to achieve his long-term goals, including stopping chronic disease, ending war, and fighting environmental pollution.
If allied with Trump, who is also interested in pro-crypto policies, they could rally voters disillusioned with the current financial system. XRP attorney MetaLawMan recently suggested that Kennedy could endorse Trump, citing his comment that it is “highly likely” Trump will be the next president..
Kennedy endorsing Trump could change the 2024 election, especially in swing states. Polls suggest that a Kennedy candidacy could draw votes from Trump. However, if he drops out and endorses Trump, it could consolidate the pro-choice and anti-establishment vote, which could provide an advantage over Harris. This could be reinforced by Trump’s interest in bringing Ilon Musk into his administration, echoing Kennedy’s vision
