Your move, brain worms.
You know what?
Good on RFK Jr. 50 years ago just the thought of him being able to escape the political shadow of the previous generation of Kennedys would have been laughable.
But when I saw this headline I legitimately forgot about his dad and uncle both being assassinated. My brain went straight to the brain worms.
It’s honestly kind of crazy he’s not just a Jeb! type guy whose only notable feature is his last name.
Secret Service had to be punished for their screw up.
What a completely random thing to do.
It makes sense to me. Biden and Trump have Secret Service detail already. RFK does not. Biden wants to make sure that it at least looks like all 3 candidates are being protected from more violence.
Because more than three people will vote for RFK Jr.
Also, JFK Jr. is dead.
For probably 2 or 3 reasons:
-
To bring attention to RFK Jr to help remove votes from Trump
-
RFK Jr is much more known to right wingers, who are also more violent. They don’t even really know of Cornell West or Jill Stein enough to care. RFK Jr is running opposite of Trump on the Right wingers side, whereas the other two will only strip votes from leftwing/Biden side
-
Kennedy Curse, they shouldn’t have lobotomized Rosemary Kennedy. So anything could happen to ol brain worms
Because neither of them have polled high enough to qualify for it, neither has the libertarian candidate, even RFK Jr. wasn’t polling well enough for it, which is why Biden had to order this, and it wasn’t done automatically.
He’s also a Kennedy, so his chance of being assassinated is probably higher than your average candidate.
While I don’t endorse the guy, I think you forgot (L) Chase Oliver. I bring this up only because the Libertarian candidates usually get more votes than the leftist candidates and I’m pretty sure they’re listed on more state’s ballots.
-Personally speaking, I’ll be one of the “three people” voting for one of the other two candidates mentioned
Worm beat them to it
