RFK Jr. Says Biden Presents Bigger Threat to Democracy Than Trump
Sputnik News ^ | 4/2/24

Posted on 04/03/2024 7:33:18 AM PDT by marshmallow

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - Independent US presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said in an interview for CNN that President Joe Biden poses a bigger threat to democracy than his main opponent and predecessor Donald Trump.

"I can make the argument that President Biden is the much worse threat to democracy, and the reason for that is President Biden is the first candidate in history – the first president in history that has used the federal agencies to censor political speech, so to censor his opponent," Kennedy Jr. said in the interview on Monday.

Kennedy supported his claim by noting that Biden was the first US president who attempted to censor political opponents by removing them from social media platforms.

At the same time, Kennedy called it "appalling" that former President Trump allegedly attempted to overturn the 2020 election results.

"Kennedy called it "appalling" that former President Trump allegedly attempted to overturn the 2020 election results."

POF calls it "appalling" that people cannot admit the election was stolen and Trump had every right as a citizen to dispute the results just like scores of Dems before him. I find it "appalling" that they continue this narrative that Trump "attempted to overturn the election."

RFK Jr. speaks with authority and expressing a modicum of good sense and critical thinking. The Joe Biden cult is much like praying to Moloch, the god of child sacrifice and self-abnegation. Caught between the oppressively high cost of goods and services, while having all the time less and less purchasing power because of lagging increases of income, means the standard of living must necessarily be FALLING.

Worse, Biden is using lawfare to bankrupt, smear and eliminate his opponents.

He must be ignorant to the fact that “democracy” equals “Communism” with these people. So trump is actually the opposite. He is indeed a threat to their definition and “fake democracy”.

Democrats have used lawfare and a two tiered justice system before.

In the name of “protecting democracy,” the Democrats will pull out all stops to keep RFK Jr off of the ballot….which of course is undemocratic.

He is right on one thing Biden’s (the Rat party) authoritarianism because he is feeling it. If he was in power he would be doing the same thing. Why do I say this look at his past statements!

Examples of his good sense and critical thinking.

I would say the order would be, Biden, Harris, you (if elected), generic Democrat in office, generic Democrat bundler, general democratic supporter and RINO republicans, Trump wouldn’t even make the list.

Note to RFK: The POTATUS isn’t the threat. The threat comes from the people who stole an election and installed him.

But you’re too gutless to say so.

Biden is the THIRD POTUS to use the apparatus of government to block free speech and spread of information.

1. Franklin Roosevelt was the first.
2. Obama used the IRS to target Tea Party to prevent a balanced budget and the FBI/CIA/State and other agencies to target political opponents.
3 Joe Biden uses the all the same stuff as Obama, he just isn’t as smooth with the delivery.

It’s not a Joe Biden, cult, these people don’t give a f**k about Joe Biden.
He represents their access to power, and that’s the only thing they worship. You can literally replace Joe Biden with Porky Pig and they would act in exactly the same way.
