Here's who the author is, FTA:

"Douglas MacKinnon, a political and communications consultant, was a writer in the White House for Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush, and former special assistant for policy and communications at the Pentagon during the last three years of the Bush administration."

IOW, a pure blue blooded "Never Trump" Bushie RINO who's doing his best to promote a leftist ticket to screw Trump.

That being said, it's Clear that RFK, JR is aiming his campaign at Biden and not Trump FTA:

"Kennedy recently addressed this challenge in a post on X: “The will of the people is being thwarted by corruption and cronyism from Secretary Mayorkas, the Biden administration, and the politicization of our federal agencies. They want me out of this race by any means necessary and are refusing me Secret Service protection in a calculated effort to drain my campaign funds, exclude me from the ballot, and stop the movement that we’ve been building.”

The article, in the above quote, links to the Kennedy article in X, where there is a remarkable string of comments that generally support Kennedy and slam Biden. Looks like the Kennedy candidacy is going to be a real threat to Biden.

She looks cute in the picture, but can anyone write an article that gets to the point within the first couple of paragraphs?

author says that this gal helps the populist narrative for RFK, Jr.

Pretty sure an ex-spouse to Google founder isn’t going to help on the populist vote

Like many here, I welcome RFK Jr. to the debate and love his emphasis on medicine, peace and a few other things

but this girl is a left wing loon

so yes....this hurts Biden

but Trump? not at all

Douglas MacKinnon’s opinion from The Hill doesn’t mean much to me.

Blowing smoke as usual.

The Left lives in a fantasy world of lies and deceit.

Pure gaslighting. Kennedy’s selection for VP illustrates that he is not a serious candidate.

Old article, but potentialy pertinent.

If RFKjr gets a couple of states, what happens if no candidate gets to 270?

Trump and Kennedy need to go on the air immediately with an ad pointing out the Kennedy family history of assasinations and that Biden is refusing to grant RFK Jr secret service protection. Paint him as spiteful and mean. I guarantee it would work.

Biden’s abject and authoritarian policy failures versus the lawfare campaign against Trump make voters want other options? Huh? Those two things are not even close to being the same thing. The FBI raid on Trump’s properties isn’t a strike against Trump. It’s more evidence of the failed Biden/Deep State federal government.

They say we will get more drama if Trump is elected. Lack of drama means letting the progressives have their way. Of course they are going to throw tantrums, like the children they are, if they don’t get their way. But RFK jr. isn’t going to fix a thing. He’s a leftist progressive on all but a very few issues. The only hope we have of real change is by electing MAGA Republicans.

Every article. Every video. Ten paragraphs before the author gets to any salient point. Or a twenty minute video for exactly a minute and a half worth of information. Infuriating.

When I read the headline, I assumed the author meant “game changer” in the sense that RTK’s running mate choice is a radical, abortion-loving, queer-loving, government-loving, open-borders-loving Leftist - and that by picking her, he just handed the election to President Trump.

But no - it turns out author is clueless as to why this is a game changer.
