I have not decided yet who I think an RFK Jr independent ticket would help the most. I will be interested to read the comments.

He’ll get some votes from never-Trumpers.

RFK Jr. is the Democrats’ version of Ross Perot. He’ll pick up votes from both parties but more from the Dems. He’ll run as a candidate to clean up Washington corruption (and you know how bad things have become when a Kennedy is considered the clean candidate). But I would even settle for him being this year’s Ralph Nader.

Jr for Attorney General in a second Trump administration. Turn him loose on Fauci, the CDC and the alphabet agencies. Make the deal, Donald.

RFK II has a voice made for silent movies. Once people actually hear him try to speak, his support will go from 10% of democrats to 1% or less of everybody. His only hope would be some kind of Steven Hawking voice-over that doesn’t sound as artificial.

RFJ jr polls around 14% for Dems many of whom think Biden shouldn’t even run for a second term.RFK appeals to some Trump voters but they are already voting for Trump. The “Never Trumpers” are largely NeoCons so they’d vote Biden before RFK since he is anti-war /anti globalist more so than Trump.
I’d think RFK would pick up some of the older hippie types and boomers who loved the Kennedys.

I can barely understand a word he says - I am a radio listener - I think this issue alone will hurt him.

That said, the Kennedy name still caries a lot of “gravitas” among Democrat voters - he’ll get lots of media time, perhaps not in the way he wants - and he’ll draw off lots of Democrat votes.

Ramaswamy is a complete a total fraud... top to bottom.

The only thing “interesting” about Ramaswamy is how many people intially fell for his lies and projected things on this abject fraud that are not there.

Secondly, the belief that RFK will siphon more from the D’s than from the R’s is no sure thing.

What you need to watch with RFK Jr. is if he does announce as an independent, what the MSM do, after the initial “news” of him announcing dies down.

If they continue to cover him with any frequency, that tells you they believe he is siphoning more votes from the GOP than the Dems... if they return to basically a news blackout on him, then they believe he is hurting the Dems.

IN an head to head race, RFK Jr. would handily win against Trump, and I say that as a very ardent Trump supporter. The Democrats establishment however, will NEVER EVER let him be their nominee.

I think he pulls more votes from Biden (or the substitute RAT) than from Trump.

BUT, he screws us in congress. Biden’s impairment is getting more and more obvious every day. A lot of RATs won’t vote for him, but will stay home rather than vote for Trump. Suddenly there is a (D) alternative, but those down ticket votes will now go to RATs instead of just disappearing.

I think he’ll need security after this and not from the deepstate!

When he says Michelle Obama might run, it kind of invalidates everything else he says.

A third-party candidate could be part of a cover story for unusual election results.

Is he more George Wallace, John Anderson, or Ross Perot?

I wonder how he’ll affect other third party candidates, such as the racist socialist Cornel West and the so-called No Labels, which is looking for a candidate.

“No Labels” is a label, doofi!

He’ll probably find some Never Trump RINO to be his running mate.

Initials Jr is only slightly more on the ball then Lesgo Brandon.

You hear a few select clips and think maybe there is something there but once you see him try to speak in public it is obvious he is too old.

Deep State will use RFK to stash votes stolen from Trump using those handy, dandy electronic voting machines.

Thats not a conspiracy theory.

It’s a spoiler.

As I have said elsewhere, I think Kennedy and Vivek Ramaswamy are—or at least were—the most interesting things to happen in the early stage of this campaign. Both are ferociously articulate.

I would add Gaetz to that list, though he's not a candidate in '24.
