Trump PICKS RFK JR. FOR VP IN 2024 According to Recent Report on Potential Vice President Pick (video)
youtube ^ | 4/13/2023 | HA Goodman

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.

I think she is so abrasive that she turns off independents.

But….Trump is gonna Trump.

Respectfully disagree about the abrasiveness. She was a reporter for nearly 30 years so she knows that whenever she’s approached by a reporter she knows what’s coming so she cuts them down before they lay a hand on her. That’s not abrasive that’s mental jujitsu.

Much like Trump, a lot of people “know” how abrasive Kari is because they’ve heard it from others but have never really seen for themselves. And if they did take the time to find out on their own, they’d see both are not abrasive. They just don’t suffer fools.

I’ve heard him lately. I used to wish bad things upon him in the past. Now I think as Trump’s VP, it could work,

Has he changed his negative view of the NRA and 2nd amendment?

That would be another in a series of stupid personnel choices if true

I was thinking something similar but DeSantis would be the better pick but he’s kind of destroyed that.

But then again Reagan did it with Bush Sr. It united the party.

“”I’ve heard him lately. I used to wish bad things upon him in the past. Now I think as Trump’s VP, it could work,””

“Has he changed his negative view of the NRA and 2nd amendment?”

I have a negative view of the NRA since Charlton Heston stepped down too. As for the 2nd Amendment, it just seems like a far off dream I used to have. What good is it when states can just vote it away?

Tulsi is gonna be RFK’s running mate when he runs as a Democrat or whatever.

If he wants to win the General Election, as long a shot as that is, he’s going to need to rally the moderates, the small ‘c’ conservatives, the independents, and the swing voters. He’ll pick a VP that will help him with this demographic and these voters don’t care about confederate monuments.

This is how we got GHW Bush in 1980. That didn’t work out very well for us.

RFK gave an excellent speech at Hillsdale. A great deal of it was played on War Room a few days ago.

“RFK Jr looks good unless Bush starts supporting him.”

Jeb, or W, or both? The Bushes whose father was CIA Operative in Dallas the very day JFK was assassinated?

It would be interesting to see which way they would go in this situation. It would never happen, but is fun to consider. As Steve Bannon said, he’d vote for RFK before Romney or “Lady Graham”.

Either. We already know Pa is voting Democrat in each election.

Sorry to say that despite his impressive abilities in most other areas, Trump has a dismal record of selecting those to be in his inner circle ... particularly when it comes to politics where lying and subterfuge are rampant ... if not valued.

I LOVE this idea. When I picked my political party, I picked Democrat, because of JFK. I would love RFK, Jr as VP (BTW, I’m still listed as Democrat, but haven’t voted for a Democrat since 2004.
Only problem with Trump/RFK, Jr ticket is it is all white, all men. Not a big deal to me, but progressives and Demonicrats may think they should vote for more “inclusive” ticket.

Only reason I found this post is because I was looking at a horrible outcomes of covid vaccines post, and qtardfantasy was one of its FR keywords. I figured there were probably pretty good posts there, as these were articles Demonicrats didn’t want us to read. Too bad, ignoramuses.

Don’t know if being Trump’s VP pick is likely or even a good idea, but I would like to see RFJ Jr. get the Democratic Party nomination. Whatever else one can say about him - he does appear to be genuinely independent minded and not under the DNC’s controll. A Trump vs. Kennedy matchup in the general election would be a real quandary for the deep state. Either outcome - a Trump win or a Kennedy win - would be a loss, from their perspective. They wouldn’t even know which candidate to cheat for.
