Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s New York campaign staff member Rita Palma touted more about former President Donald Trump’s than her boss’s when she spoke around a Republican voters meeting recently.

Now, RFK Jr.’s campaign manager has announced that Palma was fired, according to CNN.

“We terminated her contract for misrepresentation immediately upon seeing the longer video in which she gave an inaccurate job title and described a conversation that did not happen,” Amaryllis Fox Kennedy said in a post on X, formerly Twitter, Wednesday evening.

Amaryllis Fox Kennedy is Kennedy’s campaign manager and daughter-in-law.

Palma said she believes Kennedy is “still by far the best candidate,” CNN reported, adding any focus on what she said is a “distraction.”

“I dealt with the campaign honestly,” Palma said. “I have nothing to defend. Truth defends itself.

“My time with Team Kennedy has been one of the best political adventures of my life filled with some of the best people I’ve encountered, and I have encountered many. I hold no ill will and look forward to the next seven months of watching Bobby shine,” she said.

She got caught in the crossfire when she said getting rid of President Joe Biden was her “No. 1 priority” so Trump would have an easier road back to the White House, IJR previously reported.

“The only way that (former President Donald) Trump can even, remote possibility of taking New York is if Bobby is on the ballot. If it’s Trump vs. Biden, Biden wins. Biden wins six days, seven days a week. With Bobby in the mix, anything can happen,” Palma said.

She said the should “Collect signatures for Robert F. Kennedy Jr.,” “Go to Pennsylvania to help Trump,” and “Vote RFK Jr. for President!!”

Although Palma called herself Kennedy campaign’s state director in New York, the campaign itself referred to her as a “ballot access consultant” in a statement to CNN.

The campaign is focusing on getting on all ballots in the 50 states as well as Washington, D.C.

“A Kennedy campaign spokesperson previously told CNN that the campaign has designated New York as a priority for ballot access, with organizers working in all 62 counties in the state. The campaign will need to gather 45,000 valid signatures in the six-week window between April 16 and May 28,” CNN reported.

Unfortunately, she appears to have NO idea of the damage she has done and continues to do, saying all this attention to her "great idea" is getting so much news coverage, that it's better than she could have expected. She couldn't be happier. I truly can't believe she doesn't…

That's good. Thank you. I can't believe she would do such a thing.
