Another RFK Jr. Surprise
www.theatlantic.com
With Joe Biden out of the race, the third-party candidate suddenly appears to pose a bigger threat to Donald Trump.

    I know 0 Democrats that ever considered him, but I know plenty of right leaning Joe Rogan types that did / still are.

      He was always going to appeal to the low info swing voters.

      Didn’t Joe Rogan endorse RFK?

        Yep. “He just makes sense to me” or something similar is what he said. Hilarious.

          Joe Rogan is just one example why it is unwise to give idiots an audience no matter how much money it makes.

          I like weed too, but I can’t stand the “whoa dude, think about it” type stoners.

          Was there a Fear Factor where you had to put your head in a box full of brain worms for like 60 seconds?

          I hadn’t heard he walked it back. That’s funny. That’s what a Joe Rogan endorsement is worth. No surprise to me, but now it’s on full display for everyone.

          “Vote for this guy. It’s taken a lot of time and deliberation to decide but he’s definitely our… nope, wait…”

          Eh, not at all surprised. Just like that cry-baby murderer, little Kyle

        For now till the Hate Mill starts transvestigating him. He’ll flip back crying like a bitch just like Kyle the Murderer.

        He did, but then he took it back when MAGAts started turning on him for disloyalty to Trump.

      • @Viking_Hippie

        He writes medical exceptions for anti-vaxx rich folks in the area

        Sounds like the equivalent of a pill mill. Dude needs to lose his medical license yesterday.

    You know, I’d be perfectly fine if he became the defacto conservative vote. He’s probably a better candidate than Trump, lol

    • @Etterra

      It’d be hard to be a worse one.

        It’s glorious. The bar is so low we don’t even have to talk about policies or anything. We just need literally any non felon who speaks English in an understandable manner. A potato would literally be a viable choice over Trump. The noble tuber.

    • @meeeeetch

      At least he has some environmental protection cred.

      That’s the swing voter though. Salt of the earth. The common clay. You know, morons.

    Kennedy was a spoiler meant to target Biden. Now that Biden is out, Kennedy will magically drop out and officially endorse his followers to trump as election nears.

    Charlie and Frank are driving down a country road and stop to pick up some road kill for dinner only to be beaten to it by a man who appears to have had more brain worms than Charlie.

    …The gang support RFK Jr

  • @CatDokki

    But isn’t this the same guy who could possibly drop out and then just go back to endorse trump?

    Am I going to find myself ordering RFK stickers and putting them up around town? Nah, where I live is decidedly anti-Trump already, but if I lived in a purple state, I might.

    I hope he stays in the race. My worry is that he tries to get a bunch of weird anti-vax concessions from Trump in exchange for an endorsement.

    • @[email protected]

      He already tried to get a position as Health something-or-other. Luckily, he apparently recorded the call on a video and shared it on social media. He might have blocked himself by making the deal public.

      • @ripcord

        …maybe.

        Blatant corruption is no longer a problem, apparently. The only problem would be if he was perceived as going against the tribe.
