Robert F. Kennedy Jr 'thinking about' launching Democratic challenge to Biden for 2024 White House nomination

'My wife has greenlighted it,' RFK Jr. said of his potential 2024 run for president

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is considering running for president in 2024, challenging President Biden for the Democratic nomination, and he says his wife approves.

"I am thinking about it yes. I have passed the biggest hurdle, that my wife has greenlighted it," Kennedy told a crowd in New Hampshire on Friday, according to reports.

Kennedy's wife, actress Cheryl Hines, was reportedly attending the speech at the New Hampshire Institute of Politics, which for nearly a quarter-century has been a must stop in the Granite State for potential or actual White House contenders.

Kennedy, the son of the late Sen. Robert F. Kennedy and the nephew of the late President John F. Kennedy, describes himself as a lifelong Democrat and has faced criticism for his activism against the COVID-19 vaccine.

In his speech, he called the Democratic National Committee (DNC) decision to upset the presidential nominating calendar wrong, as it moves New Hampshire's primary from the first place into the third.

New Hampshire, which prides itself on its well-informed electorate and its emphasis on small-scale and grassroots retail politics, has for a century held the first primary in the race for the White House. While Republicans are making no changes to their presidential nominating calendar in the 2024 election cycle, the DNC last month voted overwhelmingly to approve a new top of the calendar, pushed by Biden, that upends the traditional schedule.

In the deeply sick world we live in a Kennedy looks like a breath of fresh air.

RFK Jr. impressed me with his resistance to the COVID tyranny.

RFK Jr used to be a hero to the left—because he opposed Big Pharma abuses for decades.

He stayed the same—the leftists were the ones who caved.

Gotta say. Being a Dem and opposing the Covid Crap is a big deal in my book. Would never take a Kennedy over a PDJT or Ron DeSantis, but . . . . Gotta say.

"I’m sure he would be a very popular choice for many democrats and moderates."

Yep, Peggy Noonan is getting moist already. Maybe RFK Jr. could choose Beto as his running mate: "Vote foh de teefs!"

They already killed at least three Kennedys and more. Do we count the wives or girlfriends who died under unusual circumstances like his wife?

Women don’t hang themselve the way his is wife allegedly did. He must have got the wet works guys to do it. After she was killed, this sob would not allow her family to bury her. He demanded to bury her in the Kennedy plot and then a few months later dug her up and moved her over out of the Kennedy plot (thank the Lord) to the far end of the cemetery.

This family is evil.

The Deep State will kill him.

I believe that were he to run, and he was killed by the DS, it would start CW2.

RFK Jr. is a thinking man. Thinking men don’t choose juvenile goofballs like Beto as a running mate.

A lot of Democrats aren’t going to like it if he does run. He’s been making a lot of sense lately.

Jfk, Jr. should run. Even though he is dead, the name recognition is better. Death or mental incapacity really don’t matter to Democrats.
