A new poll reveals exactly why Republican operatives had a collective meltdown last week when Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced his 2024 independent bid for the White House.

The NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll released Tuesday found that a three-way matchup between President Joe Biden, former President Donald Trump, and RFK Jr. proved to be a much bigger drag on Trump than Biden.

Among registered voters:

  • Biden: 44%

  • Trump: 37%

  • Kennedy: 16%

  • Undecided: 3%
