My first thought as well. Especially THAT speech in THAT location. He looked like he was in high school debate class.
I mean, did you really intend to brand your party as the party of the blue-collar, everyman slogging in out in the trenches hoping for a better tomorrow with a KENNEDY? It would have been a lot more effective with a Hispanic speaker, but Kennedy is about as white as you can get, and one of the most privileged in the country.
And he was standing in front of a CAR..so of course twitter memes starting posting pics of him with the caption “Hey I didnt hit her with this car” and poor Patrick Starr from Spongebob Squarepants drooling, comparing him to Kennedy LOL
Rats are courting the blue collar white vote...and only white man they’ve got left is a Kennedy.
