In 2010, Kennedy, now 70, experienced severe memory loss and mental fog, he said in a deposition two years later. According to the Times, he consulted top neurologists familiar with the medical history of his uncle, the late Sen. Ted Kennedy, who had died of brain cancer in 2009. A New York doctor, after reviewing a scan of his brain, told him that his health issues could be “caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died,” Kennedy said in the 2012 deposition, which concerned a divorce from his second wife, Mary Richardson Kennedy.

The perfect democrat candidate!

What a campaign killing reveal, this is a little like Thomas Eagleton who ran with McGovern in 1972.

Hey Krosan-ducttape tore me a new one one reposting the article. It wasn’t as many times as he wrote but it’s a good freeper topic.

" A New York doctor . . . told him that his health issues could be “caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died,” Kennedy said in the 2012 deposition, which concerned a divorce from his second wife, Mary Richardson Kennedy. Robert Kennedy said at the time that his earning power had been negatively affected by the cognitive issues"

Obviously, he put that in a divorce deposition, hoping for lower alimony payments.

Now that he wants to be POTUS, that story doesn't work for him.

TMI, Bob, TMI. There are times in life when it is best to shut up.

Pink Floyd wrote a song about this guy.

RFK Jr. has a vicious commie worm in his brain.

The apple of his eye...

... “caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died,” ...

Kennedy Brain Found to be Toxic to Worms

his health issues could be “caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died,”

I really hate it when that happens.

[Secret Agent Man]

Guy is honest at least. More so than Biden or any other uniparty candidate.

[mass55th]

Couldn’t have been much left of your brain for the worm to eat.

[Rockingham]

Since the information is already public in the divorce file, Kennedy may be talking about it as a way to defuse the impact. The problem is that he executed the maneuver poorly. A better approach would be to make the scans and such public with a medical expert attesting to Kennedy’s present good health and full mental function. Then he could pivot to calling on the other candidates to make a similar level of disclosure — with a slam on Biden for his obvious mental decline.

I think there should be a law that anyone running for President of the United states, should have a FULL BRAIN.

We are stuck now with an imbecile, with half a brain, and we cannot keep having impaired Presidents.

[frank ballenger]

Someone on some Fox show (sorry can’t identify him or the show) said:
If that brain eating worm tried to invade Biden’s head it would die of starvation.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Great analysis. Good points! Yep, it could have been handled better. Truthfully, I'd rather have RFK Jr. with a dead worm in his brain than Biden with his own Biden brain.

We are stuck now with an imbecile, with half a brain,

Funny that Rush Limbaugh used to say "I could have a debate with that liberal and win it with half my brain tied behind my back to make it fair" (or something like that).

Odd we'd now have to discuss it as part of true stories in 2024.🧠

Glad Fetterman has recovered and now makes sense. Gutfeld said Fetterman's brain operation repaired his mind and cured him of liberalism. "Who knew?"
