On Wednesday, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. doubled down on his efforts to gain entry to the upcoming CNN presidential debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump in June, which was announced just hours earlier.
Kennedy claimed that he will meet the criteria for the debate, scheduled for June 27 in Atlanta, and called on those involved to let him take part. The Biden campaign only agreed to present their candidate if RFK Jr. did not appear at the debate.
I’m happy to report that I will meet the criteria to participate in the @CNN debate before the June 20 deadline. I look forward to holding Presidents Biden and Trump accountable for their records in Atlanta on June 27 to give Americans the debate they deserve. #KennedyShanahan24
