In his speech on Friday, Mr. Kennedy implied that Mr. Trump had offered him a role in his second administration, dealing with health care and food and drug policy. “We’re going to reform the entire food system,” he said.
It’s worth noting that Kennedy’s health care policy is to bring back measles, that he eats roadkill, and had part of his brain eaten by a worm as a result.
The fact the GOP backed him thinking he’d pull voters from Democrats shows just how out of touch the GOP has gotten
Well, if you go strictly based off his positions on paper, or as posted on his website, he hits all the “progressive” points that would seem very attractive to a progressive independent or some more left democrats. Its a legit honest mistake to think he might be fairly left, based off when I was researching him a bit.
But every time he opens his mouth in front of a camera it’s the most asinine right wing brain worm vomit you’ve ever heard, and I think they figured that out a little too late.
He is living proof that the Horseshoe Theory is correct and true
EDIT: I thought we left reddit to get away from the mindless downvoting hivemind BS
I mean, apparently he was a pretty good dude and an environmentalist for a long time.
Then around the time he got a worm in his brain, he just went bat shit crazy for some weird reason…
Uh…no…he was very pro gun. He was liberal on like one or two issues, but most of his policies were straight up Republican.
I wanted to like the guy as a viable alternative to Biden, but he was hard right on too many issues.
Just gonna point out damned near every lefty Redneck ive met is violently pro gun, but they all would happily mutilate someone for improper use of a firearm. The NRA and Republicans aint pro gun if they were they wouldnt throw a fit everytime a minority used one.
Maybe, but every time he speaks it’s all conspiracy theory shit: anti-vax, etc.
I’m a little confused why they wouldn’t have him endorse Kamala instead if he was supposed to be a spoiler.
I’m not sure I follow;
If his goal was to pull voters away from Kamala, why would he endorse her?
I have a feeling that it was Trump’s idea, as he grew up in the decades when the Kennedy name meant something in politics, especially Democratic politics, so he figured the name would draw Democrat voters, not realizing that the Kennedy name hasn’t had any sway in Democrat politics for the last three decades or so, as the party moved on from the Kennedys long ago. Just showing again that Dastardly Don is old and out of touch.
