RFK Jr reacts to Trump’s accusations by calling him ‘unhinged’ | Robert F Kennedy Jr

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. criticized Donald Trump as “unhinged” after Trump accused the independent White House hopeful of being a “Democrat plant” and a “wasted protest vote” in a social media tirade. Both Trump and Democratic incumbent Joe Biden see Kennedy as a threat in the upcoming election. Despite challenging Biden to debates, Trump has a history of avoiding them. Kennedy vowed to confront Trump onstage about various issues, including the war in Ukraine. Recent polls show Kennedy trailing Biden and Trump, who are currently tied in support.
