When Bobby Kennedy endorsed Donald Trump last week, he burned his boats. There’s no turning back for him, or for American politics. Here’s his first interview since that happened.

What I want to know is, how many percent of RFK’s potential votes will go to Trump?

This is a big deal.

Can you hear the GOPe crying?

BREAKING: RFK Jr. just told Tucker Carlson that he'll be on Trump's transition team to help vet personnel for Trump's government

"I've been asked to go onto the transition team, to help pick the people who will be running the government"

I don’t listen to Trump’s speeches generally. I love the man and I thought I knew all of his positions. That is why I was caught a little off guard. I don’t remember him presenting anything like the phenomenal ideas and policies Kennedy laid out when he withdrew from the race. I thought consumer cost and availability was the essence of Trump’s health care plank. Had you ever heard Trump talk like Kennedy Friday afternoon? I haven’t. I’d never actually heard Kennedy’s position before. That censorship thing. If this was the price for Kennedy to come on board, I say God Bless Him.

Like I say, I’d never heard him before. I got home from the hospital 45 minutes before I watched him. I had been in the hospital recovering from nearly bleeding out due an interaction of the two expensive Big Pharma drugs I take to control my two chronic illnesses. It was a Come to Jesus moment for me.

I also have nine grandchildren.

He took a stand. Hats off to him for that.

Sometimes you have to burn your bridges to achieve great success.

I believe its significance is to move a step beyond 20th century right-left politics into what most of us realized towards end of 2008 if not before, new battlegrond is pro- or anti- globalist narratives and acceptance or rejection of assumed power of elites to define narratives.

It is now possible for the smaller cohort of progressive critics of elitist control to cross over and join or larger cohort. And welcome in (both of you).

His "boat"? At least they didn't say "he burned his cross …"

People. You disappoint me. Just what does it mean by burning his boats and not his bridges? Hint: Think of a Steinbeck novel.

Replace the Uniparty with the Unity Party. If these two guys are successful ending the war, defanging the police state, and making me and America healthy again, the Republicans will get heavy majorities in both houses. Heavy enough that President Kennedy couldn’t grab my guns or bankrupt me with Big Green, I’d vote for him and all his baggage in a heartbeat in ‘28. Unity Party, my Friend.

A Trump victory and Kennedy will be best positioned for 2028 if he can find a party slot.

The bearded Yalie currently on the Trump train ain’t presidential timber.

“Ships” is the usual metaphor... referring to Spanish conquistador Cortez’s decision to burn his ships upon arriving to conquer Mexico. It’s total victory or total defeat. There’s no possibility of retreat.

"When Bobby Kennedy endorsed Donald Trump last week, he burned his boats."

He burned his boats and bridges with them when he threw his hat in the Presidential ring against Biden. He was a life-long RAT, but the masters of the plantation wouldn't let him run as a RAT in the 2024 Presidential primaries. That's why since 2023, he became an independent.

If I was trying to get away from a bunch of communist weirdos wearing my political party like a skinsuit, I’d burn the bridges too.

Good on him!

The female vote is very concerned about childhood illnesses. He needs to stay the course it will be the Kennedy legacy from RFK, Ted to Bobby. Health is the common thread.

The majority of the right-left issues are distractions designed to keep the country divided. The uniparty and deep state are the existential issues facing the country.

It doesn’t matter as long as it’s a Unity Party ticket, not the standard Uniparty Ticket. Seismic shifts occurring beneath our feet.

I was downing him on his environmental positions while having no idea what they were. I just heard him give the most effective and easily understood nuking from space of the dems “only” environmental issue, the multi Trillion Dollar Carbon Con. I can’t wait to hear this guy’s position on the Scamdemic , circa 2020.
