Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is facing widespread criticism from political leaders and civil rights organizations after a video surfaced of him making false claims that COVID-19 was designed to attack certain ethnic groups while sparing Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese people — a conspiracy theory that drew accusations of antisemitism and racism.
The republican party is a full tilt conspiracy cult at this point. So they fund and run a spoiler in the democratic race who is a mentally ill conspiracy loon. Why? To peel off a few votes with the kennedy name and more importantly so they can "both sides"their lunacy. Ummmm, see the democrats have whack jobs too (ignore that this is our bought and paid for whack job). They successfully did this with the global warming debate. On one side you have a scientific consensus among pretty much every scientist on earth.On the other they have like 4 spoiler scientists owned by bp and shell oil. Check mate liberal. Manufactured controversy where there is none. Same with jordan peterson, they have their one mentally ill whack job intellectual. Check mate again libs we have a smart guy now so, same/same.
Can’t the Democrats do the equivilent of “taking the whip” like what happened to Andrew Bridgen in the UK? Distance themselves from him and not let him run for them?
They will. When primaries come, the Democratic party will soundly and democratically (little d) reject his attempt to represent them by not voting for him. Even before then, he will be rejected because nobody is going to give him the time of day when it comes to setting up a debate or using party resources to facilitate his campaign. Until then, he is not a representative of the party, just a dude who says he wants to represent the party. I could just as easily say I want to represent the Republican party by running a campaign on aborting every single fetus in the United States and then holding a giant gay orgy before forcing all cisgender people to undergo surgical transition. Obviously I would not be representative of the Republican party. Same with this guy and the Democratic party. The only reason it feels like this guy is in any way legitimate or affiliated with the Democratic party is because of how early primary/election coverage starts.
Not sure if they can. Wish they would
Do you have any sources that say republicans are supporting him to be a spoiler candidate?
He’s backed by Steve Bannon.
Yeah. I’m not a dumbass and wasn’t born yesterday.
Oh so your intuition is the source.
