Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s running mate, Nicole Shanahan, recently admitted that she never understood why former President Donald Trump would claim that America had a two-tiered justice system. She laughed off his political persecution claims until it happened to her.

Shanahan described feeling that she was “questioned … like a criminal” by Democrat-aligned attorneys trying to prevent her and Kennedy from having access to the New York ballot.
