Robert Kennedy Jr.

Yes, I'm saying the quite part out loud.

At 18 years of age they had killed all my hero's, JFK, RFK, MLK, and MX, why I admired them was not political, it was rooted in their confrontational style. I was like wise imbued with a sense to confront, if not for reason, but for the sport of the outcome. It did not enhance the ability to make friends, but those that got it, we stood for each other.

Who watched Hannity tonight?

Awesome forum to counter the left's agenda. It was interesting to watch Kennedy, as the lawyer, filter Hannity's questions. It was also interesting to observe Kennedy's rapid response to questions fully realized, and his straight forward answers.

He is a constitutional centrist.

imoo, Bobby Kennedy Jr, is the next POTUS, due to qualified DNA, sharp Mind, and least resistance to a stable and possible future for the republic. Americans will gravitate to his reasoned and scientific response to the virus, while the MSM continues to eviscerate itself, before coming to terms with the fact the RFKJr is their salvation.

He's still a dem. Not that repubs are any better these days, with an exception or two but we need a true conservative. Not a hard liner, but someone who will support and uphold what our national documents are meant to be.

Penn, I agree, Bobby Jr is a good Democratic candidate. He would probably steal some 5%?? of the Republican vote from The Don.

But, The Left is wholly consumed with the Woke agenda and will not leave Biden for a Centralist. At best, he could get 20% of the Democratic (less the Wokes) vote if Biden is still alive.

Now if Biden is somehow not a candidate, vis conviction or RECOGNIZED mental health issues, AND the left abandons the Wokeness and dumps all other Woke candidates,, maybe..

But they wouldn't.. They have too much invested in the Woke agenda. The Wokes will eat the Democratic party rather than compromise.

All this does not make a "shoe-in" for Trump..

As glebo said "we need a true conservative. Not a hardliner, but someone who will support and uphold what our national documents are meant to be. "

Kennedy is right wing Democrat. The left wing Democrats that have been in control for a long time and won't let the right wing Democrats back in control. A third party from the Democrats will take many votes from Biden administration and maybe from the Republicans, also?
Remember John Junior died in a mysterious plane crash, and Hillary took His seat in Congress.

Pffft

He asks good questions, probing many topics, so he has value as a pot stirrer. He's also said he'd sign an "Assault Weapons" Ban if it hit his desk.

That's all I need to know about how he ultimately views individual liberty.

Look top his position on the "wealth tax" and you guys will not be so enamored of him. Your house increased 20% this past year...?? Fuck you, pay me. Now.

Your stock portfolio increased 14% this past year..?? Fuck you, pay me. Now.

Who gets to decide if your house or stock portfolio increased? Why the government of course.

Nope. Not going to allow the government to tell me how much my assets went up and have to immediately render to them their "vig."

He's also anti-2A.

Wake up guys......he's saying shit we all like, but he's a freaking lefty nutter.

It's odd that for people (politicos) looking for a job, they don't have to post a resume. You have to go through drilling down who knows how many sites to find out what they vote on and stand for.

Probably because their resume would look NOTHING like their past performance, campaign platform, or their campaign promises.

Exactimundo Excellemente!
How a regime views the concept of private property is the other signal litmus test.
Meanwhile someplace like Wyoming is busy doing a program to refund a big chunk of taxes paid for 2022, with county people sitting down to HELP people fill out their paperwork to get THEIR money back. Contrast that with the usual approach of - "what, money??? - let's find a new program to spend it on."

RFK Jr after all is said and done, still a democrat. Donald Trump ran the government like a business. He set goals and expected results. He accomplished more in four years in the Middle East than Obama did in eight years. AND, most importantly, he (along with Mitch McConnell) appointed three conservative Supreme Court Justices. Say what you will about Trump, but he did some good things.

The one thing that still bothers me was appointing Christopher Wray as head of the FBI...

The only difference between RFK and the rest of the uni-party is that he hasn't earned his key to the executive washroom yet. Permanent DC is just like the Delta Tau Chi fraternity. They may let him into the fraternity because he is a 'legacy pledge' but it won't change the fact that he is an anti-gunner, pro green energy, hates oil, hates coal, hates nuclear power, doesn't like hydro power if it dams up a river, doesn't really like wind because reasons, will absolutely inflame the progressive tax code if given the chance, and has said he wishes there was a law that could punish climate deniers...
...oddly enough, he is STILL less radical that the rest of his party - so he tends to look more normal even though he is a card carrying liberal nutjob - and "should" he actually convince the radicals to put him in power - he will fall in line like a good little liberal or they'll take away his key to the executive bathroom.

Donald Trump had a golden shitter so he didn't "need" a key to the executive washroom so he told them all to get fucked...
...and told them on Twitter so everyone would see it.

That's ok though - the uni-party will get his ass.

I hope he runs and runs hard, he'll make a great spoiler. I've never trusted any of the Kennedy's especially that idiot Teddy the swimmer.

Why is it liberal assholes always come from criminal families?

Has he got his fraternity pledge name yet? Flounder was askin'....

I'm with PRB; the Commie establishment (vs the Commie insurgency) hates the guy. Thus, he should run. Vigorously.

I think he should run too. I just think people should do some real research on exactly who it is they "think" they are supporting as opposed to just assuming that they are voting for the public persona version of who they are voting for. Lets not vote for someone just because they gave a good showing during their interview with Sean Hannity. Let's not just toss our votes away "early" because they said they are going to dismantle this weeks most dishonest government agency or because they said they are really going to stick it the rich folks by upping taxes on the 1% (while they are hiding all of their money in off shore bank accounts)

I would like to submit the remainder of this post as an open letter to ALL of our distinguished countrymen (and countrypersons) that might wish to run for public office...

If I remember correctly, it was Bill Clintons wife that said loud and clear - you have to have a public platform that you campaign from - and a fucking PRIVATE PLATFORM that you fully intend on enacting once you scam the poor ignorant saps that vote you into the Crack House.
...I'm paraphrasing of course but she still said that shit

I think RFK Jr and Hillary and Newsome and Jeb and DeSantis and Trump and the Ghost of Ross Perot and Lesko Brandon and Liz Chaney and Tom Scott and Mike Pence and Marianne Williamson and Niki Haley and Mitt Romney and Chris Christie and Larry Elder and Will Hurd and Asa Hutchinson and Vivek Ramaswamy and Afroman and Kanye and Cornell West and even Joe mothrfucking Exotic should ALL run - as independents if they have to...
BUT
They should have to run in the general election...
...fuck all this silly time wasting money grabbing side show primary bullshit

Reach down - grab your balls (or ballettes)- and RUN you sketchy mother fuckers.
RUN
Dont cower in the shadows waiting for an "official party endorsement" you bunch of chicken shit pieces of fuck.
RUN
...put your money where your soup coolers are you dirty rotten bastards
RUN.MOTHER.FUCKERS.RUN

Don't just skim a bunch of donor cash to pay for a grandiose vacation disguised as a "primary campaign"
RUN

If you are trying to convince me that you have what it takes to fuck this country over just a little bit less than the current guy - then put your money where your off shore bank account is and run for office.
Don't just give a few speeches and then fade out the instant you realize "the party" is going to funnel bribe money to someone else...
...if you where the best YESTERDAY - then you are the best today - you're just the best without RNC or DNC bribe money

And if you are only considering a campaign run if it can be done on the backs of multi-million dollar soft cash donations and the endorsement of an un-elected unlovable cabal of political scientists, well then I suggest you first take a big step back and literally FUCK YOUR OWN FACE !!!

His own cousin Jack Schlossberg, said Robert Francis Kennedy Jr.'s presedential run was an 'embarassment' and a 'vanity project'.

That's pretty bad when you get trashed by your own family.
