Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an independent presidential candidate, believes that former President Donald Trump would benefit politically in November from the guilty decision in his hush money case. Kennedy predicted that the Democratic strategy to "go after" Trump in court would backfire in the polls.
A jury in New York convicted Trump of fabricating his financial records to cover up an alleged payment of hush money to former porn actress Stormy Daniels. Kennedy wrote to X, "America deserves a President who can win at the polls without undermining our government's separation of powers or weaponizing the courts." He asserted that the Democrats are targeting President Trump in court because they fear they will lose in the polls.
Kennedy argued that his legal challenges came from his views rather than his legal background and that the current White House promotes the same policies he was criticizing and challenging Trump on. President Joe Biden attempted to solicit funds after the judgment, arguing that defeating Trump in the general election was even more crucial.
