How gullible can you be? Lol

If Harris would have answered his call he would have endorsed her instead. He has no morals and is only concerned with helping RFK jr.
You’ve described the entire Kennedy clan going back to Joe.

Lol. Election over.

Though he may be gone from the presidential race (at least somewhat), his meme-worthy contributions will live on the internet forever. Here’s a look at Kennedy’s most unexpected moments:
  • In October, the lifelong Democrat and member of the Kennedy dynasty, announced he would seek the presidency as an independent candidate. Though headline-worthy at the time, it’s now the least surprising thing he did.
  • In December, the campaign announced they were hosting a sweepstakes to win “an afternoon of falconry and conversation” with RFK Jr.
  • In May, Kennedy admitted that memory loss and mental fogginess he experienced in 2010 was “was caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died.” His campaign said the worm no longer affected his health and “the issue was resolved more than 10 years ago.” It added that he is in “robust physical and mental health” as evidenced by his shirtless-in-jeans-and-a-belt pushups he posted online.
  • In early July, a Vanity Fair article alleged Kennedy sexually assaulted a former family babysitter. In response, Kennedy said that he has “so many skeletons” in his closet he wished they could vote.
  • The same article featured a photo of Kennedy smiling and pretending to take a bite out of what appeared to be a barbecued dog carcass. Kennedy later said the photo was actually a goat they were about to eat.
  • Days later, Kennedy promised transparency on social media and that he “won't take sides on 9/11” if elected president.
  • In August, Kennedy confessed to a decade-old mystery: He was the one who dumped a dead bear cub in Manhattan’s Central Park. Kennedy explained that he picked up the roadkill bear with the intention of keeping the meat, but instead decided to leave it in the city staged with a bicycle to look like that’s what killed the bear. He said he looked forward to seeing how the media would spin his latest revelation, but it’s unclear what he thought needed spinning, it was already pretty weird.
The dead bear cub is easily my favorite. Ah, yes, the nasty lamestream media was gonna "spin" that.

We truly live in stupid times.

I wanted to hear what he had to say. I found him to be far more personable than his brother Chris when Chris ran for governor in 2018.

"Ignore my brother." LOL.

Wait, I thought the narrative on here was that RFK and his supporters were a bunch of Trump Lite crazies?

Turns out, per your Pew link (which is common fucking sense) that Biden-hating Dem voters learn of Biden dropping out, and move support to Kamala. Shocking.

You'd think after 8 years, the Dems and Repubs would've had a better candidate rise to the top of the sludge, but nope. Trump vs HRC, Trump vs Biden, Trump vs Biden-to-Kamala. It's fascinating really. Then RFK throws his name in the hat. A Kennedy Democrat for fuck sake, despite what MSM and DNC and online Left would have to say about him.....became the highest polling third party candidate since Perot. He took a ton of votes from the Dems and they responded by suing the shit out of his campaign to prevent him from being on ballots and by participating in debates. Biden drops out and a large swath of RFK's support moves back to the Dems. This was highly anticipated. What is left is likely a large base of IND voters. What seems to be getting ignored on the Dem side at the moment, is that polling updated when Biden dropped out. Kamala closed a ton of gaps and in some states, took a lead...but that included the movement off of RFK (see Pew link). Now that he's dropped out, the remaining 4-5% has been polled as 2:1 in favor of Trump. Dems scoff at it, but that could be the difference in winning a swing state. Casting RFK and his supporters as right wing Trump crazies is foolish and may prove to be a catastrophic mistake by the Kamala campaign.

Ummm I don't think that can be true because I was told you have to literally vote Democrat to literally save fucking democracy literally, and that doesn't sound Democratic to me?

“Dems are divisive for not embracing RFK!!!!”

Alternate universe in which they accept him

“Wow! Classic Dems playing politics and selling out to get votes!”

Actual adults “Masterful gambit Mr. Trump, you really were able to unite everyone by accepting RFK. I can’t believe you were able to do it! Anyways, I’m super duper disappointed that the Dems didn’t nominate someone rational like a Tonald Drump to lead the party!”

There are plenty of more rational Dems they could pick to lead the party, like Mark Warner, Hickenloper, Klobuchar, Shaheen. But I don't think Kamala is an irrational direction to take the party, just that she sucks lol.

Wonder if she'll be given the questions ahead of time?
I think Trump raising concerns ahead of time is good. But ultimately I was proven dead wrong by how CNN handled that first debate. Not sure if it will be the same here because the media has completely debased itself in the past month or Kamala being the nominee, but maybe they will be fair
