It will be interesting to see where his supporters go next... If they all go to Trump that could be bad.
she's beating trump by a spread that's smaller than the margin of error and rfk's poll numbers are several fold larger than those margins.
we already know that that's enough to guarantee that trump will win 3 out of the 7 battleground states; add to that michigan's uncommitted voters and that makes 4 out of the 7 battle ground states that kamala is going to lose.
From watching and reading independent journalists, owner-class media, and more, it seems, IIRC, a good amount of his supporters are for Trump.
It would help third parties if they left the duopoly, though.

Which could be a problem. This race is too close and any more support for Trump is dangerous.
