RFK Jr. super PAC raises $11 million within hours and courts Elon Musk’s support

Just hours after Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced he would run for president as an independent, more than $11 million gushed to the coffers of the super PAC supporting him.

American Values 2024 said it raised $11.28 million in just six hours following Kennedy’s announcement in Philadelphia on Indigenous People’s Day, according to a press release.

“Millions of independent-minded Americans are seeing through the most powerful censorship and propaganda campaign against any candidate in American political history,” said Tony Lyons, a co-founder of the PAC, in the press release. “They are angry at the DNC for attempting to disenfranchise them, eager to support an honest Democrat and more open than ever before in American history to an Independent and honest candidate.” Lyons is also in talks with billionaire-entrepreneur Elon Musk to court his support, he said in an interview with POLITICO following Kennedy’s speech in Philadelphia. Lyons declined to share details of their discussions or any potential contributions on Monday.

I’m telling you, Trump should ask RFK Jr to be his running mate. It will drive the left mad and frankly, the left is hammering him, so he is no different than any of the milquetoast rhinos that the deep state will try to foist upon Trump.

RFK second in line for the U.S. presidency? I think NOT!

Aside from his logical stance on vaccinations, the guy is an ultra liberal whack job.

Trump called RFK Jr a “very smart man” and has never criticized him.

Looks like it. They’re basically RATs, anyway, embedded here to cause a ruckus.

Watch which states he goes after. Anyone want to bet he doesn’t go after Oregon, NJ and NH where he’ll hurt Biden and the other Rats? Alex Jones giving him a platform when he should understand thr play is to ensure Rats win.

“Trump called RFK Jr a ‘very smart man’ and has never criticized him.”

I hope you have this sentence saved as a macro ‘cause you must get tired of typing it over and over again.

As others have pointed out to you in the past, (1) Satan also is “very smart”, and (2) Trump isn’t stellar when it comes to choosing people.

They must be very frustrated, realizing that their efforts here are ineffective. LOL!

Is Elon going to be a spoiler in the election? I hope he pulls more from Biden that Trump.

I think the reason Trump isnt any good at picking people is because there arent that many good people to pick from.

RFK is a Gun Grabber and a Global Warming alarmist.

Being right on the VAX and the border is insufficiently redemptive.

Correct!
He is going to go after TX, AZ, FL, MI, WI and every other close race.
RFK jr is just a Clinton Triangulation move.
If he ever got in, he would be Biden II but without the diaper change.
