He is going to dump millions of shares on the market at the same time as any sane analysis says he stock is worth pennies. This is not much different than the first tech bubble, except very localized and will probably not drag the rest of the market down with it.... probably./s
I've got to believe that the smart money has already unwound their positions in Truth Social.
A desperate FMG has already returned to the site formerly known as Twitter hoping to recapture his glory days when people in the GOP feared that he might tweet something adverse about them.
Ta, Marcie. When I remember the good that RFK Jr. did as an environmental lawyer, I get really sad to see what he became. He's a turd, but a dangerous one.
Glad I didn't waste too much of my life with Nicole Shanahan facts in my head, then. RFK remains a looming threat but a NECESSARY burr in all our saddles --- DO SOMETHING. NOW. TODAY. AND TOMORROW.
Trump could still win - EASILY - and famewhore that he is, he'd salivate to get a Kennedy name - "American royalty" especially to a 78-year-old - n his Cabinet. RFK Jr. at HHS would be a disaster. Trump might even find a place for Shanahan. She's not his type, and brings no minions, so her only human value to Trump is as an ATM machine (same role she plays for RFKJ), but since he's lazy and hates this country, he'd probably sell her any job title she wanted.
I don't know what qualification she brings to public service, unless our new foreign policy plan is to pay off foreign debt by having Nicole divorce our creditors.
Jr's fake campaign was cooked up and funded by GOP operatives in the hopes that the Kennedy name would draw the votes of underinformed Democrats. It boomeranged when RFK Jr's's unhinged weirdness and sketchy personna polled better among likely pro-Trump Qanon loons, tinfoil hatters, and antivaxers than it did among confused Democrats. So the plug is getting pulled.
Oh my GOD, that these utter morons believe the Kennedy name has any modern political relevance to the younger and more progressive Democratic party is fucking wild. Talk about lead-head feet-in-the-past Boomer moment shit, for sure.
Same, and my husband is a Boomer himself with no attachment, but... Internet's gonna internet, and I forget everybody needs their reassurance that they're NOT THE BAD ONES, GUYZZZZ! when I make my snarky remarks.
Somehow I get the feeling he doesn't mean something mild like "50% plus one vote isn't good enough, you should need a 70% majority for laws that may require violence to enforce."
I get that the family's still scarred by what happened to Aunt Rosemary, but they do need to keep somewhat closer tabs on this one than he's been getting.
Also, Trump isn’t suspicious of vaccines. He doesn’t care if babies die or if we all get polio-infused measles. He just wants that sweet 3% RFKJ might have to offer. Wishful thinking on my part, perhaps, but I suspect people ornery enough to vote for RFKJ would rather throw away their votes on some other loon than join the sheeple voting for one of the real candidates.

Anyone who considers voting for a convicted felon, rapist, who can’t even vote, needs their head examined.
I think he can vote as long as he's not in prison at the time. I welcome correction by someone who knows Florida law better than I do.

Maybe, just maybe, it was a brain worm.

Welp, he’s out…campaign suspended, and endorsing Trump.
We are a clairvoyant lot, here!
Wait, for reals? Is this Oh-Fishal??
MSNBC is reporting it says he’s going to announce it officially on Friday. Oh well, bon voyage!

In a normal society, this guy would be inside a rubber room.

Some of us Boomers have been progressive Democrats for a lot longer than our young naysayers have been alive.
Yes, yes, obligatory 'not all Boomers' because even here, apparently required.
I think the point is that the Youngs don't have an emotional attachment to the Kennedy name. I certainly don't and I'm in my 40s.
Same, and my husband is a Boomer himself with no attachment, but... Internet's gonna internet, and I forget everybody needs their reassurance that they're NOT THE BAD ONES, GUYZZZZ! when I make my snarky remarks.
MAGAts are welcome to the Brain Worm and Elon’s former mistress. They fit right in with those weirdos.
Was it the volume knob? Why separate knob? Why?!?
So I'm supposed to trust someone who apparently bumped uglies with FElon?
Shanalanadingdong and RFKjr should just elope.
She trusts American democracy in the hands of people who openly disdain American democracy.
Thiel has said democracy in incompatible with his idea of “freedom.”
Somehow I get the feeling he doesn't mean something mild like "50% plus one vote isn't good enough, you should need a 70% majority for laws that may require violence to enforce."
Personally I believe Thiel is incompatible with being an American.
Perhaps we should "Seastead" his ass into a lifeboat in the middle of the Atlantic.
without a paddle, radio or life vest.
Add to that no food or water.
Wait a minute. I'll listen to his 911 theory. I still have some questions on that.
I get that the family's still scarred by what happened to Aunt Rosemary, but they do need to keep somewhat closer tabs on this one than he's been getting.
This guy gets more insufferable every hour.
