Remember when the QAnon nutjobs thought a dead Kennedy was going to rise from the grave to be Trump’s running mate?
Nope. Literally!?
Yes. “But how could anyone believe that?!” I don’t hear anyone ask. Knowing Better has a great video on that:

If there’s one thing I’ve learned in the last ten years it is that I’ll never trust a political poll.
Suddenly the media will stop giving this asshat any coverage.
A conservative plant will do that.
Makes sense knowing his vaccine opinion.
No shit.
Yeah. I would expect an insane conspiracy theorist to appeal to redhats and not normal people.
Big if true
To the surprise of -10 people
Good.
Feck em.
Doubt
Isn’t there “No Labels” party too? We gonna have a four way split?
Don’t forget Cornell West. It’s just absolute chaos.
The independent ticket seems to have died along with Bernie’s chances of ever having been getting into presidency. It’s almost like any whackjob that gets to run Independent, mind as well call it Republican 2.0
After Ralph Nader cost Gore the 2000 election, (along with blatant supreme court fuckery) Democrats have been a little wiser about third party candidates.
See, under First Past the Post, a third party candidate is a liability. When you support a third party, or independent, the most likely outcome is the majority candidate that is ideologically closest to that candidate will lose. The Spoiler Effect.
RFK Jr. is a blatant attempt at Republicans trying to create a spoiler candidate. The problem (for them) is, he’s much closer to Trump than Biden on many key issues.
Without talking about his controversy with the vaccines, would someone tell me why I wouldnt want to vote for RFK jr?
Edit: still waiting on that
I mean. Antivax bullshit is more than enough to disqualify him immediately for any sane voter. Why would someone spend any additional time learning about his other opinions?
Thats… pretty sad. So lets say there was a candidate that had all your ideal solutions except they were what you consider antivax, that person is no longer a good candidate?
I reject the premise.
It’s impossible for them to have all my ideal solutions because that would necessarily include supporting medical science.
Being an outspoken antivaxxer shows a severe lack of critical thinking skills. Vaccines are not what matters most to me - having a representative that accepts reality is.
All i said was to suspend some disbelief. Lets pretend this candidate was a doctor themselves but had a rational take on why they are antivax.
Suspend disbelief in what? Whether vaccines work? Pretend they really do cause autism?
Ok yeah in bizarro universe I may be interested in an antivaxxer’s opinions. And Superman is a bad guy. Puppies aren’t cute…
How is that useful? We live in a reality where vaccines do work. They don’t cause autism. And puppies are cute AF.
