RFK, Jr. Says Charlie Kirk Was Responsible for Pulling Him Into MAGA and Endorsing Trump – Twitchy

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., paid tribute to Charlie Kirk during a vigil at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., on Sunday. He shared a tidbit that many did not know about the late conservative leader: it was Kirk who was responsible for RFK, Jr. and President Donald Trump joining forces in the 2024 presidential election.

RFK Jr. just revealed that Charlie Kirk was the “primary architect” of his unification with President Trump.

Kirk even came up with the idea to light sparklers on stage when Kennedy shook Trump’s hand. 

“He made a big show of it,” Kennedy laughed. 

Everyone LOVED that moment — and Charlie was the one behind it all.

It was pretty incredible.

Posters say it’s really a testament to Kirk’s ability to build bridges that he was able to secure RFK, Jr.’s endorsement for Trump.

I had no idea that Charlie had brought Trump and RFK Jr. together. Amazing!

Kirk changed history by bringing RFK Jr. and DJT together.

Yes sir!👍Two amazing people who had one common interest…human beings. No matter what or where they came from. Improving American lives was what they chose to come together on.

Charlie changed history just by being Charlie!

Kirk was truly pivotal in Trump’s election victory.

The Democrat Party rejected RFK, Jr. Now, voters are leaving the party in droves. Posters see it happening.

Democrats need to fix their party or lose it all

I’m cool with them just losing it all.

— Nick Sortor (@nicksortor) September 15, 2025

I don’t see how they can fix their party. They’d have to admit ideological defeat and that isn’t possible.

Democrats have nothing. They have no ideas and the policies that they do have are all losers. Democrats are living like it was 75 years ago. They still don’t get it and MSM is still covering for them as we speak.

It’s too late they deserve to lose it after all the evil I have seen from them this last week!

Good riddance to the Democrats!

Enough about them. MAGA owes a great deal to Charlie Kirk.

Yet another way Charlie Kirk helped win 2024.
Yet another reason to be eternally grateful for Charlie Kirk.

Its mind blowing how many people Charlie Kirk affected.. it’s absolutely incredible

We continue to be amazed at how much reach Charlie Kirk had in life and continues to have in his passing. RIP, Charlie.
