We shouldn't dismiss the possibility that RFK Jr is a deep state plant meant to split the Trump base. I've closely monitored RFK's activity since he rose to prominence during COVID and there are some things about him that bother me:
He speaks at a lot of "far-right" events (ie. ReAwaken America Tour). As such, he has drawn most of his supporters from the Trump base and "conspiracy theorist" crowd rather than the Democrats.
He is raking in millions from mostly GOP donors, money that would've otherwise gone to Trump. Some donors are also GOP Never-Trumpers who donated to DeSantis (failed Deep State plant).
Since announcing his candidacy, he has backpedaled on many of his leftist stances. For instance, he used to be vehemently anti-2A, even going as far as to call the NRA a terrorist group in a tweet. He has since then deleted the tweet and softened on gun-control. He has also backpedaled on abortion and socialized medicine. If he's running as a Democrat, why is he moderating his stances on core Democrat planks to appeal to the right?
It seems that he's perfectly set-up to attract the disillusioned Trump supporters mad about Operation Warp Speed. These are the same people who would've supported DeSantis. Now they'll all flock to RFK jr. That's a good 15-20% of the Trump base.
I'm also bothered by the fact that he endorsed Hillary for senator in 2000 and for president in 2008 and 2016. He's also a hardcore climate change activist who supported the Green New Deal (part of the Great Reset).
