If the Democrats were an honest party, RFK would be cake walking to the white house right now, and I say that as a Trump supporter... had they nominated him, he would handily win the white house.
However, RFK, much like Trump, is not beholden to the globalist, uniparty oligarchy... so, he they pushed him out. In fact they lit up on him harder and faster than I haver EVER seen anyone get lit up.. calling him an existential threat almost immediately when he began getting press early in the cycle.
However, RFK cannot be president because he’s not on board with all their crap... Yes he’s a liberal, make no mistake about it, but he’s NOT owned, lock stock and barrel by the system and its backers... so, why replace a complete puppet that has no idea what is going on or where he is, with someone who’s not on the team?
At this point RFK independent run is looking like its going to be the largest independent vote grabber since Perot, only this time, the majority of this vote will be coming from previous Biden supporters.
Trump is wise to do what he can to minimize RFK’s appeal, he’s a died in the wool liberal, but his general campaign messaging is almost exactly the same as Trumps... Basically RFK is offering the same “Government’s not working for you, and I’ll make sure it does” messaging. RFK uses more intellectual terminology like “captive agencies” and such, but at the end of the day he’s saying the same thing.
I don’t see many conservatives moving to RFK, however, the disenfranchised and fed up democrats who will vote for Trump and a lot of independents will be open to voting for him.
I don’t see any math where in a 3 way race, RFK is not more of a net negative to Biden, however, he certainly will draw some voters who would be for Trump if RFK isn’t in the race, so, Trump is wise to do what he can to minimize this segment, and work to maximize the other one.
agreed
Great post / analysis
You need to save this and copy/paste it whenever RFK comes up in the next 6 months
I’m interested to see what Donald says at the LP I think he will stress the need to get rid of Biden and to vote for him.
I dont even know if the LP have a candidate yet. Certainly no one recognizable
” ... only this time, the majority of this vote will be coming from previous Biden supporters.

? If most come from Biden why should Trump minimize him?
