Robert Kennedy Jr. sounds like a MAGA Republican. Almost MAGA enough to be Trump's VP...?

What if...............he's there to get the more "moderate" dems to be open to his ideas, under the guise of "hey, maybe a Kennedy can beat the evil Drumpf", and so they accidentally hear about and maybe even rally around anti-vax, anti-big government and other ideas they would never entertain from our side.....and then after he beats the crap out of everyone in the Dem debates and is the frontrunner, he ends up being Trump's VP nominee....
That's exactly what I was thinking. If he ended up as VP nominee, it would be a very healing move for the rift in US society.
I was thinking the same thing. Especially given Trump's close ties to the Kennedy family.
Kennedy is absolutely a spoiler candidate and unlikely to have chance at winning the primary. But, as you state he will absolutely be dropping truth bombs. It is truly a shame his voice so bad as he can often be unintelligible when he speaks. He is a "classic liberal", one who is open to ideas and discussion on them without censure. That is anathema to the Jacobin/Marxists who've taken over the organized left now. It's also why some leftist podcasters (Bret Weinstein, Jimmy Dore, et al) sound more like conservatives than Democrats.
I grew up with a lot of those classic liberals - they were ok.
This new strain should have been shunned by the DNC but now it has taken over the DNC.
I remember on The_Donald being surprised at how many Bernie bros became strong Trump supporters after Donna Brazile stole the nomination for Hillary. It makes sense tho. They never should have been following Bernie in the first place - he's a sell out.
Classic liberals cared about the country and state of the people in it overall. Did not agree with many of their proposed solutions but never thought they were all in on the outright destruction of institutions and the country. We saw all that go out the window with the recent summer of love riots. What was once on the fringes was rolled out nationally.
They think they have enough horsepower to push this thru and they do if we let them. What you do to push back will take different forms with everyone who does so and that's what makes it so powerful. Instead of coordinated groups it's totally random forms of opposition. Remember when riots are staged that's the battlefield they want you to fight on. Be a doer but not a joiner.
And the easiest way to be a doer is to downshift & limit your consumption of new goods. Starve the beast of income. Some new goods are worth buying but most aren't. Teach yourself to discern what actual value vs. veneer is -
Repair what's broken do not replace
Buy used items whenever possible and use them up
Buy used clothes from thrifts, tailor to fit you
Buy new clothes from work wear brands (they last), tailor to fit you
Invest in high quality shoes/boots (they last) and take care of them
Have local water sources (stream, lake, pond) tested for contaminants
Learn to cook and with that you will learn how to grocery shop
Seek out local farms w/ farmstands and buy direct
Consider buying a farm produce "share"
Learn to forage native edibles in your area
Grow some portion of your own food supply
Learn to hunt, trap, & fish
He's easier to understand than Biden or Fetterman
It was easy for me to read. It was only 16 lines of English.
Don't hold your breath. A Kennedy is not going to turn MAGA Republican ever. Not ever.
We don't necessarily NEED him to. He can fracture the left irreparably, as well as the false "2 party system".
This is the other line of my thinking.
The Clintons used Perot to fracture the conservative vote. They wanted to use Trump to fracture/pervert the conservative vote but that (it seems) spectacularly backfired.
I see absolutely no reason why Trump and his fellow conspirators would not do exactly the same thing to the Democrats.
I know that I would definitely do this.
For that to happen, RKjr will have to run as an independent.
Trump does every thing by the book which means even if the military stops the cheating like they did in 2016, he still has to win legitimately. While, in a fair election, I think he could do it blindfolded while hiding in the room he stores his declassified files in (since he doesn’t have a basement,) adding a dem to the ticket would be an incredible move of showing peace and harmony and building a massive landslide.
it would probably push the neo-cons towards Desantes though. I know a lot of repubs who are not loving The Don.
He is the left. He's not going to shatter the left.
a good method of using their own tricks against them... The pollsters will hate it!!!!
MAGA is not republican or democrat. MAGA is MAGA and we have some even from the libertarian. That was my party, because I love Dr Paul.
I was never a GOP fan with the likes of Bush, No name, and the Romneys
Most GOP were not. But if you think Kennedy wants to be Trump's running mate, he's going to have to become a Republican. I know a lot of people hope Trump will start a third party but at least up to now, there's not the slightest hint he would do that. Not even in the face of their transparent and continued efforts to help the Biden steal.
People forget it was the leftist Dems who opposed vaccines long before they embraced them for Covid control.
Who are the Rodney's. Do you mean Romneys??
Yup fucked that up lol
His job is to expose the uniparty.
IMO --- Old School Democrats were/are more conservative, pro small business than today's RINOs.
RFK Jr is an Old School Democrat.
That is what I was thinking.
A new Unity Party to beat the existing UniParty. A real one, that represents the concerns of actual Americans.
I used to think Kennedy was a hippie crackpot weirdo. But that was a long time ago. For the last 5+ years I have found him to be really solid on his direction, his focus on truth and getting to the actual science, etc.
And for the hero worshipper/boot licker types, the fact he's a Kennedy is a nonzero advantage. Some people really care about that shit.
The biggest issue with Kennedy is his dysphonia (weak/squeaky voice). It really hurts his ability to nail a public speech like his Father or Uncle could do.
Yeah the voice issue sucks, BUT, we can take a page out of the leftie playbook and if/when they criticize him for that, scream ABLEISM!!!!!!!
Senator Rocky Road and POTATUS can barely put sentences together, so...
:)
Yeah, that'll work.
I completely agree. I think the idea of him being a crackpot was planted by TPTB when they were more, shall we say, subtle. (His $290M win against Monsanto (Bayer) is probably a sore spot.) The mockingbird are out in full force, trying to paint him as a freak but he is no dummy.
I have had this exact thought. That I fell for it, back in the day (the fake nooz story on him). The Rockefeller-ian "Medicine" Industrial Complex rolls heavy and deep. And has done so for 120+ years.
