In a recent podcast interview, Nicole Shanahan, the running mate of independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., made a candid revelation about their campaign’s dilemma. The Kennedy-Shanahan campaign faces a pivotal choice: either stay in the presidential race, risking Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris’s victory or drop out and potentially align with former President Donald Trump.
Shanahan, who has been a significant source of campaign funding, criticized the Democratic Party for attempting to “sabotage” their independent bid. She acknowledged that despite setbacks, they technically have a chance to win. However, the campaign continues to hemorrhage money, even with multi-million-dollar injections from Shanahan herself.
The internal debate centers around two options:
Stay In and Form a New Party:
By staying in the race, the campaign could lay the groundwork for a more durable, new political party. However, this risks drawing votes away from Trump and potentially leading to a Harris-Walz presidency.
Join Forces with Trump:
Alternatively, they could walk away now and align with Donald Trump, hoping to prevent a Harris-Walz administration.
Shanahan’s remarks highlight the delicate balance between principle and pragmatism in their campaign. As the election approaches, the Kennedy-Shanahan team faces a critical decision that could shape the future of American politics1.
While the Kennedy-Trump alliance remains uncertain, it’s clear that Bitcoin adoption is a key topic in the broader context of their campaign.
