Since Robert F. Kennedy Jr. entered the 2024 presidential race in April 2023, critics have described him in many ways.

In the early stages of Mr. Kennedy's campaign, he was mostly ignored by President Joe Biden and the Democratic National Committee. Former President Donald Trump praised him and called him a "a very smart guy, and a good guy."

Rhetoric from Democrats and Republicans shifted when Mr. Kennedy opted to leave the Democratic primary last October and run as an independent candidate.

Now, less than six months before Election Day, Mr. Kennedy's campaign is gaining momentum and causing concern for the camps of both Presidents Biden and Trump. He is a distant third in national polls, but he is drawing support from conservatives, independents, moderate Democrats, and libertarians.
