On Sunday, Jack Dorsey, the former CEO of Twitter, endorsed Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s presidential campaign and expressed his belief that Kennedy could defeat former President Trump in 2024. This endorsement follows Dorsey’s recent call for an open Democratic primary process. Dorsey made the comment on Twitter in response to President Biden’s recent fall in Colorado.
The ex-CEO of Twitter has shown he is interested in a Twitter Space that’s on the way. In this Space, Kennedy will be interviewed by Elon Musk, the owner of Twitter, and some other panelists.

The tech entrepreneur tweeted that he thinks Kennedy can beat a Republican candidate in the 2024 election and shared a link to an interview with Kennedy. Dorsey is one of several Democrats who want an alternative to Biden, but the Democratic National Committee has not agreed to a debate that includes Kennedy or other candidates like Marianne Williamson. Despite polling between 10 and 20 percent, Kennedy has not been given a chance to participate in such a debate.
The majority of Democrats want President Biden to run in the 2024 election, but some of them would like to have a primary process. A YouGov survey of 1,000 likely voters showed that 54 percent of Democrat respondents believe Biden is the best choice for the party in 2024. However, 29 percent of respondents preferred a different candidate.
Kennedy has called for a debate and slammed the “rigged” primary process on multiple occasions. “Debates and town halls are part of the democratic process. We’re living in a time when there’s a lot of Americans who believe our democracy is broken,” the nephew of former President John F. Kennedy told the Epoch Times in April. “And I think both political parties have to bend over backwards to start restoring faith in democracy and electional integrity.”
