President Joe Biden’s re-election bid continues to suffer major setbacks, with a member of the most prominent Democrat family turning on the president.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a prominent member of the Kennedy dynasty and a direct rival to Biden, shocked the world in a CNN interview where he insisted Joe Biden might be a bigger threat to democracy than former President Donald Trump.
Kennedy, while speaking on CNN’s Outfront with anchor Erin Burnett, said he could argue the case that Biden is a bigger threat to democracy than Trump.
“I can make the argument that President Biden is a much worse threat to democracy,” Kennedy said. “And the reason for that is President Biden is the first candidate in history, the first president in history that has used the federal agencies to censor political speech, so to censor his opponent. I can say that because I just won a case in the federal Court of Appeals and now before the Supreme Court that shows that he started censoring not just me — 37 hours after he took the oath of office, he was censoring me.”
CNN: “When people talk about the threat to democracy that Trump poses, do you really think that is equal to Biden?”

Kennedy maintained that Biden’s use of government agencies to censor political opponents is a bigger threat to democracy than Trump’s actions leading up to the January 6 protests.
“No president in the country has ever done that,” Kennedy continued. “The greatest threat to democracy is not somebody who questions election returns, but a president of the United States who uses the power of his office to force the social media companies, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter to open a portal and give access to that portal to the FBI, to the CIA, to the IRS, to CISA, to NIH to censor his political critics. President Biden, the first president in history, used the Secret — his power over the Secret Service to deny Secret Service protection to one of his political opponents for political reasons. He is weaponizing the federal agencies. Those are really critical threats to democracy.”

Burnett tried to convince Kennedy to admit Trump is a bigger threat to democracy, citing the former president’s actions leading to the January 6 protest. However, Kennedy would not have her arguments.
“So, just to be clear, you’re saying you could make an argument that President Biden is a worse threat to democracy than Donald Trump?” Burnett asked again.
Absolutely!!” Kennedy responded. “What president in history has ever tried to censor political opponents? What president has weaponized federal agencies?”
