It has just been reported that RFK Jr. is planning to leave the Democratic primary and run as an independent for president.
This will undoubtedly cause consternation for Democrats who fear this could weaken Biden’s chances of winning – assuming he’s the nominee.

Some are wondering if this could steal away Republicans as well. I don’t know the answer to that but it is possible.
However I do believe we are going to have our own problems if Liz Cheney announces a run for president as an independent – assuming Trump is the nominee. She’s made clear that she’s dead set on him never winning the presidency again.
