Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. supports issuing reparations to the black community, making him the most prominent 2024 candidate to favor the controversial policy meant to atone for slavery and legal segregation.

President Biden has largely been silent on the issue, leading to frustration among the far left.

Slavery was almost entirely a private matter.

Except for a census taker or a Civil War US soldier, most slaves were never seen by a federal person.

Maybe about one million were seen and taxed by a federal port revenue collector when imported.

Joe Biden may be told by his masters to match or exceed RFK Jr.’s vote buying offer.

In case there still any hold outs for RFK Jr to run with Trump.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If this doesn’t dissuade the Kennedy boot lickers here, nothing will.

Yes. If he makes it onto the general election ballot in most states, he’ll siphon off votes from Joe, who already has the anti-war left looking for a protest vote.

Perfect. He needs to continue his journey to the far left but not too far. I wish him pleasant journey.

RFK Jr.? No way in heck would I vote for this guy, especially now that he wants to give REPARATIONS. Let HIM pay for the “reparations”, i.e. payoffs to people who deserve NOTHING. My ancestors were slaves in Egypt; should I get reparations from the present-day Egyptians?

To all those that said RFK will take from Trump......yeah sure, keep listening to the fake news media. RFK is a ultra liberal democRAT. His wife Cheryl Hines is an A# 1 pro abortionist.

this is great news now rfk will suck out more dem/rat voters since most of our base would never vote for giving any minority more than they already get.

The gravel voiced populist shtick was amusing for a while, but now he’s declared himself an enemy of the republic.

He’s a mook.

Now, eventually reparations will irresistibly become a core plank of the platform of the Left and even squishy opportunists in the GOP will embrace it, to show inclusiveness or some other fool’s babble, further dividing and weakening the country.

We’re on a path to chaos, the March of Folly.
