Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Friday addressed the Libertarian National Convention and excoriated former President Donald Trump over his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“President Trump presided over the greatest restriction on individual liberties this country has ever known,” he insisted.
“I think [he had the right instinct when he came into office. He was initially very reluctant to impose lockdowns… He caved in,” Kennedy said. “It all started with the social media and the mainstream media apparently without any government prompting began censoring any speech that departed from the government’s orthodoxies.”
