Donald Trump, having claimed victory in the 2024 US presidential election, spoke to his supporters at the West Palm Beach Convention Center, outlining his plans for the future. Though he has yet to reach the 270 electoral votes needed to fully secure his win, the Republican nominee remains optimistic as key battleground states like North Carolina and Pennsylvania shift in his favor. “We’re going to fix everything about our country,” Trump assured his audience, signaling a return to the White House.
Amidst the euphoria of his victory speech, Trump made a lighthearted yet pointed comment about Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (RFK Jr.), who had recently joined his campaign after suspending his own independent bid for the presidency in August. While many viewed Kennedy’s decision to align with Trump as a potential spoiler to President Joe Biden’s campaign, Trump himself expressed a positive view of RFK Jr.’s commitment to health and environmental causes. However, he made it clear that Kennedy would not have a say in one of the most significant areas of US policy: energy.
During his speech, Trump joked about the potential role of RFK Jr. in a future Trump administration, particularly when it comes to managing the nation’s energy resources. “RFK Jr. came in, and he’s going to help Make America Healthy Again. He’s a great guy and really wants to do some things, and we’re going to let him do it,” Trump remarked.
Despite this acknowledgment of Kennedy’s work in health and environmental advocacy, Trump quickly added a humorous jab, emphasizing his own control over energy matters. “Bobby, stay away from the liquid gold. We have more liquid gold than any country in the world. Other than that, go have a good time, Bobby,” Trump quipped. The playful remark about “liquid gold,” referring to oil, underscored Trump’s long-standing emphasis on American energy independence and his clear intention to maintain strict control over energy policies.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who suspended his independent campaign in August, has been campaigning actively alongside Trump, appearing at numerous rallies across the country. Known for his focus on health, environmental issues, and vaccine safety, Kennedy’s shift from running as an independent candidate to joining Team Trump is seen as a key development in the race. While his presence on the campaign trail is significant, Trump made it clear in his victory speech that Kennedy’s influence on the oil and gas sector would be non-existent.
Trump has previously praised Kennedy for his dedication to health and the environment. However, he has also reinforced that energy policy—particularly the exploitation of natural resources like oil—will remain firmly under his control in a potential second term.
In addition to his comments about Kennedy, Trump’s speech was also focused on his vision for the future of America. Standing before a crowd of enthusiastic supporters, many of whom were jubilant at the prospect of his return to the White House, Trump made a strong promise to address the country’s challenges and “help our country heal.” “We made history for a reason tonight,” he told the crowd. “This will truly be the golden age of America.”
The victory speech was marked by a tone of optimism, with Trump declaring his intention to “fix everything about our country.” This message resonated with many of his supporters, who have long rallied behind his vision for a more prosperous and powerful America.
While Trump’s victory speech focused largely on national healing and addressing America’s future challenges, the subject of energy policy remained a focal point. As Trump has frequently stated throughout his political career, he sees the US as an energy powerhouse and is committed to ensuring that the country remains a leader in global energy production. With his jab at RFK Jr. over “liquid gold,” Trump made it clear that his administration would not entertain policies that hindered the extraction and use of fossil fuels.
In contrast, Kennedy, who has built his career around health and environmental advocacy, is expected to be given a prominent role within the administration, likely in the areas of public health and agriculture. It remains to be seen how Kennedy’s views on climate change and environmental regulation will influence Trump’s policies, but Trump has assured that energy, especially oil, will be managed according to his priorities.
As Trump’s win continues to be projected, the celebration among his supporters was palpable. Many seemed excited about the prospect of his return to power and supportive of the direction he has outlined for America’s future. A few supporters even humorously commented on Trump’s playful remarks about RFK Jr. One fan summed up the sentiment by saying, “Trump’s message was genuinely hilarious.”
Trump’s campaign rallies, now featuring Kennedy by his side, are increasingly being seen as a unified front, with the two focusing on shared goals of national renewal and reform. However, for many, the biggest question remains: what role will Kennedy play in the broader policies of a Trump administration? While he will likely have a hand in health and environmental issues, Trump’s reaffirmation that energy matters, particularly oil, will be firmly under his purview sends a clear message to his supporters—and his detractors—that the president plans to stay true to his pro-business, energy-friendly stance.
In the days ahead, all eyes will be on how these dynamics evolve as Trump works to solidify his victory and build a team to lead America in the coming years.
