Wisconsin’s Supreme Court just ruled he will stay on the ballot there too.

Trump will have a very very hard time winning Michigan with Kennedy hanging out on the ballot.
The differential between Trump and Harris in most state level polls is the same regardless of whether or not RFK, Jr. is a choice in polling.

He shouldn't have waited as long as he did to request ballot removal. It was clear many, many weeks earlier his campaign was doomed.
While that is true the attempt is being made because his being on there is seen by the Trump campaign as hurting Trumps chances. He usually loses a point or two in polls here with third parties included so there may be some merit to their thinking.

I think it’s pretty clear the Kennedy and Trump campaigns were negotiating for some time before his endorsement. Keep in mind too that Kennedy was backed by Trump supporting billionaires as a way to hurt Biden figuring he was a liberal and so some Democrats would peel off. His vaccine skepticism and other crazy views turned off the Democrats they wanted and peeled off some Trump supporters instead. Not the plan at all. Harris replacing Biden was the kiss of death for the entire ill fated project.

Kennedy was campaigning in Michigan on Friday with Republican nominee Donald Trump.
Trump's a genius for continuing to campaign with Kennedy. He's effectively earning votes for a competitor.
283,000,000 Americans didn't vote for Trump.

I keep seeing a billboard near Metro Airport with the two of them side by side thumbs up and it says “RFK Jr. Says: To unify the country vote Trump”. Fine print says it was paid for by the Trump campaign.

The Democrats should run some Vote Kennedy ads with some AR12 Riffles.
