RFK Jr. to address nation on Friday as rumors swirl of his withdrawal
Kennedy's speech comes amid mounting speculation that he will drop out of the presidential race and endorse former President Donald Trump.
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will address the nation on Friday to discuss his path forward.
"Independent Presidential Candidate [Kennedy] will address the nation live on Friday about the present historical moment and his path forward," campaign press secretary Stefanie Spear announced in an X post.
The address is slated for 2 p.m. ET and will take place in Phoenix, Ariz.
Kennedy's speech comes amid mounting speculation that he will drop out of the presidential race and endorse former President Donald Trump. Earlier this week, his running mate, Nicole Shanahan, confirmed the campaign was mulling such an option.
"There’s two options that we're looking at and one is staying in, forming that new party, but we run the risk of a Kamala Harris and Waltz presidency because we draw more votes from Trump," she said. "Or we walk away right now and join forces with with Donald Trump and explain to our base why we're making this decision.”
