5:03Now PlayingDonald Trump went apoplectic over Fox News' interview this week with Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., saying that the candidate is the "dumbest member" of the Kennedy family. He then somehow managed to praise RFK, Jr., saying that he's definitely better than President Biden. Trump is so desperate to convince Democrats to vote for Bobby that he's actually helping push more Republicans over to him, as Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains.

Fox News decided to interview independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. This week. And it was a rather friendly interview, right? They weren't exactly trashing him. They weren't, you know, trying to make him look like an idiot. And that really seemed to off Donald Trump, right? Fox News is supposed to be the Trump network. So Donald Trump, after this interview with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Aired, got on truth social and absolutely lost his mind about Bobby Kennedy Jr. Now, before I read you what Trump said, the reason Trump is freaking out so much about this right now and to me it's absolutely hilarious, is 'cause the polls are showing, as they had shown earlier this year, by the way, that Bobby is actually pulling more support away from Trump than he is from Biden. So Trump knows that he's panicking, he's freaking out, and now he's off that Fox News would dare put him on the air when they know that he's taken votes from Trump.
So here's what Trump put on true social so bad that Fox News puts RFK Jr considered the dumbest member of the Kennedy clan on their fairly conservative platform. So much competitive networks don't want anything to do with him. He's a radical left lunatic whose crazy climate change views, make the Democrats green news scam look conservative. He's polling badly, 8% at best, but says he does well against crooked Joe Biden and me one-on-One wrong, he gets trounced Junior said, I'm the best debater in generations and I want to debate him and crooked. But first he's got a kid as bad pole numbers up a lot. He would be easy. Pickens with all of that, said he probably hurt sleepy crooked Joe more than us. And he put us in quotes like I'm, I'm not sure what that means, like that, that word did not need to have quotes around it.
Um, but he's trying to go scorched earth against Bobby right now, like he's the dumbest of the Kennedy clan. And uh, you know, he also praises me, which I like. Uh, and for the record, I haven't addressed this yet, but yeah, uh, Bobby Kennedy Jr. Came out recently. He was like, Trump's like the greatest debater of a generation, which really is a dumb thing to say Trump is not a good debater. Like he does not get up there and factually like just damage his opponents. He goes up there like a giant bully and pushes people around that's not debating. Yes, he can dominate on that stage, but not because of his debate abilities. It's because he is an and he doesn't care if he makes fun of people and just, you know, calls 'em fat or what, like he's not a debater, he's a. And there is a world of difference between the two. And I'm just shocked that Bobby was like, he is a great debater. No, that's a very dumb thing to say. But here's the thing. Even with Donald Trump constantly attacking RFK Jr right now because he's so worried about losing voters
To him, he still goes out there and praises him, right? Like a week ago, which you know, back in April I guess at this point, he said this, he's much better than Biden. If I were a Democrat, I'd vote for RFK Jr. Every single time over Biden because he is frankly more in line with Democrats. He's a better man than Joe Biden that I can tell you. So he wants to praise Bobby so he can convince Democrats to vote for him. But every time he does it, all he is doing is letting some of these on the fence conservatives know that, hey, this guy's not bad. Even I like him even though I hate him.
