AUDub 11,153 Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 He’s a crackpot and a quack. Hell if "Wi-Fi radiation opens up your blood-brain barrier, so all these toxins that are in your body can now go into your brain.” Or ”Covid was engineered not to affect Asian and Jewish people” aren’t immediately disqualifying, nothing is. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like RFKjr, he is a fresh set of eyes on the nation's issues. However, when he was with the Sierra Club, he told so many lies about the US Navy I lost all respect for him. Science, Reason, and Truth mean little to him when is trying to make a point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMWATS 95 Posted April 2 Author Share Posted April 2 (edited) Thinking about the voters that keep a picture of JFK in their homes and normally vote for the Democratic nominee seeing the Kennedy name on the ballot and selecting it for President in November has to tighten some jaws within the Democratic Party.

When everyone has a platform, those with the least to say always say it the loudest.

It’s inevitable that some or maybe many will seek a 3rd option and vote for Kennedy in exasperation, panic, or protest. And yes, I am lazy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good decision. secret service protection costs more than $40,000 a day for the gov. to provide, and RFKjr isn't a big enough candidate for it to be necessary or needed.

But you see it much more with MAGAs. Why is that? I submit it's because in order to believe such a ridiculous thing, you have to first believe in vast scientific conspiracies, which - as we have seen on this very forum - is more typical of MAGA conservatives..
