Bobby Jr may be a delusional narcissist, but I still enjoyed his takedown of Hannity when he pointed out that all of Hannity's accusations were taken from the Trump playbook. In order. "I do my own research"--that shitweasel never made me laugh so hard.

"RFK Jr. knows full well he’ll 'take more votes' from the Republican nominee; that’s why he’s running," their email says. "But do not be fooled — the only way to reverse America’s decline at the hands of Biden is to elect a Republican as president next year."

Can't even put his name--TRUMP--in that last sentence. Oh sure, no primaries yet, but he is so far out in front of the others, he will be the nominee.

QAnon Fears R.F.K., Jr., Will Take Votes Away from J.F.K., Jr.

By Andy Borowitz

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Members of the group known as QAnon are warning that the Independent candidacy of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., will siphon off votes from the highly anticipated 2024 bid of John F. Kennedy, Jr.

Harland Dorrinson, a QAnon spokesman, called R.F.K., Jr.,’s decision to run as an Independent “a blatant attempt to confuse voters” who were planning to support his celebrated cousin.

"Maybe this is what R.F.K., Jr., was planning from the very beginning,” he said. “I’m not a paranoid person, but it almost seems like a conspiracy.”

“We at QAnon need to spread the word that there is only one real Kennedy running in 2024, and that’s J.F.K., Jr.,” he said. “Accept no substitutes.”

For his part, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., appeared undeterred by QAnon’s criticism, as he announced that he had already received several major endorsements from voices inside his head.

Don't they just HATE to tell the truth over at Politidildo, doesn't it just stick in their craw? To write a whole article pushing the RNC line, citing each and every talking point and fallacy, only to contradict all that crap in the last paragraph. Of course, they've already made their point, got their licks in, and what kind of Poindexter reads all the way to the end?

He’s crazy, but he must know he’s the black sheep of, well, he’s a black sheep. He’s far too nutty and irresponsible to be a democrat, and he’s not thoroughly sinister and terrible enough for republicans. Thus his “independent” island to himself. Even the “no labels” independents must realize that despite Biden having one nagging weakness (he’s old), Biden is sane and a rational man. Trump is an insane criminal conman and obvious threat to humanity. RFK Jr isn’t a serious candidate, so anyone voting for him is throwing away their vote. Even if you are hopelessly offended by Biden’s age, you need to use your vote to prevent the orange apocalypse.

I've ranted as actual libertarian (and secessionist...), Republicans still think of 3rd party candidates as benefitting themselves bc the small role it played in 2000 and 2016, even though the conditions are quite different. What they're really unprepared for is that a Democrat might dominate the swing states thoroughly enough that it wouldn't matter if a Republican won the popular vote.

I know the words are English, but I'm having a really hard time wrapping my mind around the concept "if a Republican won the popular vote". It makes about as much sense to me as "if that duck shot my wife".

Maybe RFK Jr should run for the King of the Island of Misfit Toys because he just doesn't fit in anywhere, like a train with square wheels or a squirt gun that only shoots jelly (the former is pretty bad, but the second one always seemed like a pretty cool toy to me), he is just a misfit.

To this day, I still can't figure out why that dolly was on the Island of Misfit Toys. Maybe she was a "misfit" on the inside - like she was stuffed with razor blades?

Many people are hated by their families for a variety of reasons having to do with self-expression. It is not a nice way to live your life, as Evan acknowledges.

Exactly. Using the LGBTQ+ community as leverage here is not a great look.

He’s decided to run as an idiot. Excuse me, independent. Damn autocorrect!

Runfastandwin's avatar

For once autocorrect gets it right!

DDB9000's avatar

Again, it is NOT necessary to insult people who are not in a political party,

Amazing how many alleged liberals do this here

Runfastandwin's avatar

I am a stone cold tax and spend liberal. Nothing alleged about me.

Richard Von Busack's avatar

Whether he runs GOP, Dem, or beats Gus Hall as the Commie candidate, RFK JR is an idiot.

DDB9000's avatar

That still does not mean you can compare all independents to idiots.

That verges on bigotry.

What if I said you were a Nazi cause you may have a German name?

Think about it.

Robert Eckert's avatar

At no point did anyone compare all independents to idiots.

Duh, I can't tell no difference between them dang DIMoKrat LUBrals and the members of the Grand Old Party. I'll keep an open mind and say I'm Indipindint.

Wow! I have literally NEVER heard that putdown before! Never! The von....I get it!

Independents are not necessarily idiots, but in the context of a two-party system with a first-past-the-post voting system, and one of the two parties basically fasicst, there's basically no case for actualy voting for a third party, unless the outcome is guaranteed to be completely lopsided one way or the other.

everyone knows Democrats are well known for willfully purposefully and repeatedly hanging out with far-right nutjobs like Michael Flynn and Steve Bannon and Joe Rogan.

they really thought we were as dumb and gullible as they are and would just be 'ah yes. this Kennedy chap is a regular normal Democrat that i will vote for because Biden Old.' that never was going to happen and was plainly obvious to any non-moron and now they realize they made an oopsie. tough shit.

RFK Jr. can suck it. In real news, here is a very cogent analysis of the Mideast situ https://snyder.substack.com/p/terror-and-counter-terror/comments, I highly recommend

His own family doesn't love RFK Jr. for who he is.

“Voters should not be deceived by anyone who pretends to have conservative values,” Cheung said... Wouldn't that include the entire Repub party, which doesn't want to conserve anything good?
