Is he less sharp than he used to be? Yes, for sure. But if you legitimately think him and Biden are on the same level of cognitive decline, then you are just not serious as a person. Trump is considerably better than Biden was in 2020.
I think comparing the sharpness of Trump and Biden is a fool's game. Trump is no spring chicken, but he still thinks on his feet pretty well. We were led to believe that "Dark Brandon" was going to wipe the floor with senile Trump in the debate. That punchline never delivered. Gullible liberals were misled about both candidates acumen.

Here's Trump earlier this week fielding a tough question and turning it around on the reporter:


Here's Biden speaking from a prepared speech at the DNC:

Funny how in RFK's speech, he listed out said "values" and gave perfect examples of why present day Dems do not align with them and how his dad and uncle would be in shock at the current state of that party because of their departure from said "values."
Wonder how they would have felt about January 6th.

AG RFK Jr rolling up on three letter agencies to roll some heads works for me. Or just put him in charge of NIH, CDC, FDA and EPA for a few minutes. Just b/c he is goofy doesn't make him wrong on everything and useless.

Which is part of the quid pro quo problem with our political system, isn't it?

Or just when we agree with it...

Not at all. He has strong feelings regarding certain public issues and getting in someone's cabinet is way to produce real change. One party was willing to hear him out and the other wouldn't take his call. Made the choice pretty easy, I'd say.

He's an opportunist. You can blow smoke up my ass about him really wanting to make a difference, but if he had gotten what he wanted from the Dems....a fucking KENNEDY....you guys would all be shitting red white and blue thumb tacks out of your noses.

He's Tulsi, Jill Stein, etc. Not falling for it. I can appreciate some of his views, sure, but overall I think he's a nut job. He said if the playing field were fair, he'd have won the election. He's delusional.

Don't give two shits about RFK, just thought the above had a vibe. "If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black a Kennedy."

Peace out.

Honestly, I remember when the Bush twins drank beer at a college party or something and everyone clutched their pearls. Grow the fuck up and leave the kids alone.

Nobody should bother Barron either .


I won't agree with you on much but you are spot on here. Then multiply by 100 when the kid has disabilities.

I actually dig the guy. Took a flight on the Epstein plane, sensed the guy was a creep, so he flew on the Icky Express a second time.

He's transparently stupid, I'll give him that.

When compared to Harris, Biden or Trump ...... he's a mastermind ..... and it's not even close.

Yeah. Just another grift. Go on and stick this guy in an ivory tower though.

No different than the rest of them. Shifting where the wind blows the money.

Not the first time we've heard this. Lots of people who were staunch Democrats changed parties when the Dems moved too far left. As Reagan once said, "I didn't leave the Democratic party. The Democratic party left me."

First couple of minutes. And he is correct. The script is absolutely flipped from the 1960's to now with the two parties.





I must have missed the memo when the Republican party becomes the party fighting for more workers rights, higher minimum wage, and women's rights. Don't think the script between the two parties is really that flipped

My dad was a Reagan Democrat. Flipped to R with him and never looked back.

RFK Jr. is evidently going to campaign with Trump now, which is cool.

We've also heard it from Republicans about the current status of their party and those currently in leadership positions. I think the flip flopping of parties has more to do about politicians being self serving than really about the direction of either party.

You see all those people at Trump rallies? They are poor to middle class blue collar workers from middle America. Flyover country. Rural people. Industrial workers.

The Democratic party has become the party of the coastal elites. I'm not alone in this observation. People have been talking about it since 2020. It's actually fascinating.

Cool thanks for posting an opinion piece. Please post links that show the Republican party doing anything to better worker conditions, pay, or improving women's rights. Just because working people vote for Republicans doesn't mean the Republican party is all of a sudden going to make working class people's problems they're priority. We all heard how Trump and the Republicans views workers rights. He was very clear in his chat with Elon, that if workers try to do anything to better their situation that they should be fired.

Doesn't this happen every election cycle? Some candidate says something mean about another candidate during the primaries, then they're besties by the time the conventions roll around.

I seem to remember Kamala saying a few nasty things about Biden before ultimately becoming his running mate. It's all a cycle, and they're all buddy buddy behind the cameras. You occasionally even seen them cross aisles and get chummy.

I gotta be honest, I am so tired of checking this thread and seeing the lamest fucking tweets shared in here by the same collection of people like its moving the needle nationally.

RFK Jr???? "Historic announcement." He "delivered proof!" It's more evidence these are not a bunch of serious people. The poor people who donated money to this nonsense, good lord.

No, they’re just honest brokers of calling it like it is. Anyways, here’s PatriotPatty sharing insights from her sources!
