The Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy (RFK) has denied ever stepping away from the upcoming United States Presidential elections or even endorsing Republican nominee Donald Trump.

RFK Clarifies Donald Trump Endorsement Claims

RFK Jr. took to X to debunk any speculation about him dropping out of the elections through an endorsement for Trump. There were social media conversations between him and Trump at the time the former President got shot earlier this month.  Amid these speculations, he said unequivocally that he was in the race to win it.

To ascertain his confidence in snapping the votes, Kennedy claims that Independents are the largest voting group currently. In his opinion, momentum is in his favor as he is closing in on ballot access in all 50 US states. In light of all these, the Independent candidate looks forward to competing headlong with Donald Trump, and whoever the Democrats will nominate to represent them.

Kennedy has support from top entities like Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson who is quite vocal about it. Hoskinson once said he would vote for RFK Jr as he believes he can make a difference regardless if he wins or not. In his endorsement for RFK, the Cardano innovator noted that the pro-Bitcoin contestant is the “horse to ride in November.”

After dropping out of the race, President Joe Biden endorsed Kamala Harris to take his place. She is yet to be approved by the Democrats leaders but Harris has gone ahead to launch her first official campaign video. This is only one week after Biden made his decision public.

In this ad video, Kamala Harris highlighted her swift rise to the position of presumptive nominee in an election just over 100 days away.

US Presidential Nominees And Crypto

From the crypto perspective, the presence of RFK in the race could stiffen the competition for Donald Trump. The reason is not far-fetched as it has to do with RFK’s pro-Bitcoin stance. It is widely believed that this year’s election will be influenced by the crypto inclination of the candidates.

Specifically, Trump has not stopped talking about his support for crypto firms. The former President constantly talks about all the favorable crypto policies he would introduce to the sector once elected president. He is one of the strongest crypto-inclined candidate in the US presidential elections. He has gotten much love thus far raising over $4 million in crypto for his campaign thus far.

Also, Harris recently refused to attend the ongoing Bitcoin Conference, a move that portrays her crypto stance.
