Despite efforts to distance Kennedy’s independent presidential bid from the MAGA movement, evidence suggests a deepening connection. Reports have surfaced of Trump-affiliated staffers aligning with Kennedy’s cause, hinting at shared objectives.
Stanton King, known for her right-wing views and previous endeavors to sway Black voters towards Trump, now assumes the role of director of Black voter outreach for Kennedy’s campaign. This seamless transition raises eyebrows, particularly given her recent comments on a far-right podcast in April.
In the podcast, Stanton King expressed enthusiasm for a potential “Trump-Kennedy ticket,” asserting it as a win-win scenario for her. Her endorsement of Trump’s baseless claims of election fraud and speculation about a Trump administration role for Kennedy further underscore her alignment with Trumpian ideals.

As Stanton King puts it, “It’s us against the Democrats, either way it goes. It’s the Republicans and independents against the Democrat Party. And we’ve gotta all unite.” These words echo a sentiment of partisan alignment rather than the independence touted by Kennedy’s campaign.
