Points made by Goodman:
Trump and RFK Jr. on the same ticket is "probably not likely" but,
1. RFK Jr., based on articles he has authored, and Trump have similar foreign policy views. For example, they both oppose "never-ending military conflicts".
2. Many Trump supporters will gravitate towards RFK Jr. because of his anti-covid vax viewpoints.
3. Trump and RFK Jr. both speak their minds and aren't afraid of the media.
4. RFK's economic policies are similar to Trumps, based on his interviews and writings. Under Trump we had record high household income and record low poverty, which RFK Jr. supports.
5. RFK Jr. is the closest thing to Trump in the Democrat Party. If he were Trump's VP, a lot of independents would vote for the Trump/Kennedy ticket.
6.JFK, RFK's Jr.'s uncle, did not "worship" intelligence agencies, the opposite is true.
Nothing new for FR..............😜
I read somewhere that he has a vocal chord problem
Big difference between “Trump Picks” and “Is it likely?”
I’m supposed to believe THIS?
Sheesh...

Total BS
It ain’t going to happen. RFK’s a flaming liberal, and environmentalist whacko. Besides, I highly doubt Trump would pick someone whose 2nd wife hung herself.

Over 1,000,000 copies sold despite censorship, boycotts from bookstores and libraries, and hit pieces against the author.
Kari Lake will be the VP pick.
How about entertaining BS? This is still a better read for entertainment thant the average best thread for that category in my average day of FR reading.
Unfortunately for this post, it will at best earn the silver medal because of a thread on some sort of extinct Spanish bovine full of moovelous punishment.
A pun isn’t mature until it becomes full groan.
“He couldn’t be any worse than Mike Pence, “
That bar couldn’t be any lower! Laying on the ground low.

I love it when ancient popular culture which is now high culture intersects with red neck/dad humour. Thanks.
For your enjoyment.

Marsha Blackburn would be a good choice. (70)
Let 2028 take care of itself. I have been guilty of looking past 2024 to 2028 myself.
It was wrongheaded.
For 2028 Trump can choose a successor or Republicans can fight it out.
Lets get through 2024 FIRST!
Trump sycophants.......any criticism in the least and they lose their shit....another thing that’s quickly becoming nothing new on FR.
SMH
At least we will be entertained?
I don’t know much about him but when he was talking about the Vaccines I saw a Trump level of boldness. I wouldn’t be worried about the climate differences, Trump is very stubborn, he’s not suddenly going to be all in on “wind” and getting energy from China. I’m not instantly negative on the idea.
RFK Jr’s bio on Wiki is worth a read before y’all get TOO excited. But I do think, if true, it’s a masterful move on DJT’s part.
There’s a LOT of hot debate material in there.
On balance: it’s a mix of plus and minus — net plus — in the RealWorld.
Well, it’s not out of reach. We can espouse all day long here in our conservative den at Free Republic, But the reality is, the country is divided. Any republic pick will alienate more voters and invite snark from the Left. To pick a so-called democrat from the Kennedy family would be seen as an olive branch — at least drag over the few semi-sane liberals or blue-dogs/independents that may exist somewhere and are sick to death of seeing their 401K’s shrink and the country slide into total economic disaster.
We need a strategy to win — this country can’t afford another 4 years of progressive democrats (i.e. commies).
Some people here still think that is accidental.
