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.

I strongly support this. He is the bomb on vaccine injuries, long before Covid. Operation warped speed needs to be uncensored by the right and they will never do it because trump and pfizer are buds.

The grandpa Joe Kennedy was a sinner to the Deep State Globalists because he was an Isolationist in the mold of Pat Buchanan of more recent memory.

No it wouldn’t.

“They allowed Ted to live.”

They probably made him an offer he could not refuse.

Yep.

Godless Capitalism is as bad as Godless Communism.

So few get that.

Ted was the gutless wonder who caved to the Deep State—a traitor to his country and his family.

Yep, it was either cooperate, or they spill the beans about Chappaquidick.

” Perhaps he’ll be a “Kennedy” style democrat like his uncle who did not damage the country -”

Which uncle? John or Ted? (And I am assuming you are limiting the uncles to bloodline Kennedys, not “Kennedys” by marriage.)

I may not like his principles, but he strikes me as a man of principle.

Divorced the mother of his first four children after 12 years of marriage.

He immediatly married his second wife and had four more children. He filed for divorce after 16 years. Two years later, she hanged herself. Then he entered a tug-of-war with her family of origin over where she would be buried.

But that same year, he (admits to) starting to date an actress who is a friend of Larry David of Curb Your Enthusiasm, and married her in 2014. She was rather too old to have kids.

Let's see if the Democrats pull up any "pussy tapes" on RFKjr.

He has a new book that will be released in just a few days. Will blow the lid off Trump's claim China is solely responsible for gain of function research I'm sure:

I believe he is also. Hypothetical: if were between RFK JR. and Nikki Haley, you better believe I would vote Kennedy, on the single issue of him understanding the covid fraud.

For chrissakes Trump is still crowing about operation warp speed. Puke. I lost my job over that crap. I’m still mad.

And with that one sentence he just took himself out of the race.

“My wife just green lighted it.” Flipping weak simp cuck.

Although no one has mentioned how his speech is affected. Seems problematic for a presidential campaign.

I have a hypothetical question for Freepers.
If your ballot next November only had Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (D) and Mit Romney (R) on it, who would you vote for?

All the Kennedy scandals etc make them sound like a Mafia family (Kennedy Crime Family).
No, not so much the Sopranos as the Corleones! Puzo based them on the Kennedys complete with a “compound”.
Though Corrado “Junior” Soprano seemed to have been a fan of JFK and chose his doctor as he was named Kennedy
