The flyer for a recent rally held by the conservative activist group Turning Point USA in Glendale, Arizona, said that the special guest was former president Donald Trump, the Republican presidential candidate.
Kennedy also endorsed Trump at the same press conference.
Trump told the crowd that the GOP is “the party of common sense”.

He continued:
We are the party of commonsense, not conservatives.
We want fair and free elections. We want strong borders. A great military. An excellent education. A nice home. Low interest rates, low taxes, and minimal regulations.
He claimed that this is why “millions” are joining the movement, “disaffected Democrats,” and “joining as wildfire.”
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is one of the disaffected Democrats. It turned out that he was the guest. Watch Trump introduce him:
This was the reaction of the conservative, engaged crowd when he entered the stage:
