Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has announced the suspension of his independent presidential campaign and endorsed Donald Trump for the upcoming election. Despite suspending his campaign, Kennedy clarified that he is not terminating it entirely. He plans to withdraw his name from ballots in key battleground states to avoid acting as a spoiler, while maintaining his candidacy in other states. Kennedy's decision comes after drawing about 4% support in polls, and he has urged his supporters in battleground states to vote for Trump. The announcement was made during an event in Phoenix and mentioned in a Pennsylvania court filing.
