BUT
I whole-heartedly agree.
This is the part where Trump supporters (I still marginally consider myself one) start screaming not to vote third party or "the worst case scenario (Biden winning) happens. I even agree that yes, Biden or whoever is the Dem candidate winning is the worst case scenario. And it would seem that RFK Jr. takes more from Trump than from Biden. Fair enough.When the hypothetical 2024 general election matchup broadens to include environmental lawyer and anti- vaccine activist* Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. who is running as an independent candidate, Biden receives 39 percent support, Trump receives 36 percent support, and Kennedy receives 22 percent support.
BUT
When Trump or Biden lose, partisans from their respective camps are going to blame RFK Jr. right away as a means of coping with their failure. We saw this play out with Green Party candidate Jill Stein following Hillary’s historic loss in 2016 and a hundred other elections over time.
Let’s clear this narrative mess up preemptively: it’s not RFK Jr.’s job to get Joseph Brandon or Donald Trump, or anyone else, elected. That’s the candidate’s responsibility, and when he falls short, it will be his fault.
I whole-heartedly agree.
Hear hear!I hope nothing but failure for the Brandon entity and its handlers, so I won’t bother giving them any advice. This is for the other side: if MAGA hopes to retake the White House in 2024, Trump’s going to need all the help he can get, which includes attracting RFK Jr.’s supporters.
For one thing, he needs to cease immediately bragging about Operation Warp Speed -- his disastrous pharmaceutical gravy train scam to get Pfizer and Modern’s “vaccines” approved in record time – that is clearly, in retrospect, as it should have been at the time, a total disaster from a true public health perspective.
Trump, further, needs to get real about how he’s going to pursue COVID justice against the likes of Anthony Fauci. Pointless hearings in the Congress aren’t going to cut it anymore. Those are fine, but people need to go to prison. We as free people need to get to these people criminally before they’re allowed to die of natural causes, free and rich.
Second, Trump needs to get serious about how he’s going to #DraintheSwamp – specific steps to purge every federal agency of its Deep State minions and remove them from public service once and for all. Tossing out red-meat rhetoric along these lines at rallies, similarly, isn’t going to work any longer to turn out the base.
