Kennedy looks a lot like Sinatra here. reference pic
Mixed with John Travolta
Then aged in a dungeon 50 years
RFK Jr. is about to learn the hard way what anyone paying attention already knows:
Trump makes a lot of promises that he has no intention to follow through.
looking at how he treated the 100 previous trump appointees and saying "That wouldn't happen to me" takes some kind of worm infested brain
He’s probably no longer welcome at thanksgiving dinner either.
His family has all come out against him
Remember when he had Chris Christie do all that work on the "transition team," and then threw it all away because fuck being prepared I guess?
Jesus Christ we're so fucked if Trump wins. Totally, utterly fucked.
Indeed we are! So don't fuck this up!
//Europe
Hey, how do we join the EU? Y’all seem to be doing some things right…
Hm.. let's see, we let in Hungary, there's a strong push against messenger encryption, and we kill a lot of people at our outer border. Yep, we're great.
And he was dirt cheap. Practically free.
They now have three ultra wealthy, absurdly out of touch, despised weirdos on the ticket. Two with catastrophic mental illness and cognitive decline. One with a Handmaid's Tale (and couch) fetish. Backed by a handful of other billionaires from Musk to Thiel to Adelson to crypto lords. It's a desperate and frankly pathetic strategy. In a free and fair election, with a moderately intelligent electorate, they would be crushed...
Do you edit wiki intro paragraphs, or work in product marketing? That was the most succinct description of their tent, that I've ever seen.
RFK jr. Once told a judge that he shouldn't have to pay all that alimony because his brain worm has fucked up his mind to the point where he can't even make money or focus. But apparently still good enough to pick who runs the government.
Well he said that to ruin his ex wife's life so although that's funny he was bullshitting
It's on court records though so people should shove it in his face as fact
So perjury?
Yes precisely
Then he should eat his words
Sort of like how he ate worm eggs.
To be fair, even a wormy brain is likely to function better than Trump's.
RFK Jr's wife Cheryl Hines (from Curb Your Enthusiasm) said she'd divorce him if he took a position under Trump. I guess that's not too much of a concern for him.
Let’s consider this AFTER she follows through.
Sounds more like she was blowing smoke and talking shit. If she actually divorces anyone I’ll eat crow but let’s be clear… SHE MARRIED THAT FUCKING WEIRDO.
I doubt her logic or particulars add up to normal behavior…
Eating crow sounds like a one way ticket to brain worms
Probably because he knew it was an empty threat.
Cheryl is about 87 steps beyond redemption already. She hasn't done shit so far and she won't do shit now. She's complicit in his horseshit
Wait, I thought I read that she urged him to meet Trump?
Isn't that worm scared of being around all of that ivermectin circulating in MAGA circles? Maybe that's its goal, infiltrate and destroy all the ivermectin. I'm just asking questions.
I think you're on to something here.
I thought the ivermectin crowd all died out?
They told us to fear the lizard people. Turns out that was a false flag by the worm people.
Lizards eat worms. Checkmate … someone?
/s
Honestly I think I'd rather have the brain worm choosing people via Ratatouille since the alternative is competent white supremacist fascists from the Federalist Society.
And if the worm is a Nazi, we haven't really lost much ground.
Arent you excited by the idea of a Chief of Staff Brainworm?
We can all have brain worms!
Impossible, brainworms need food and theres nothing up there in RFKs head
Shit, BrainDead was a documentary.
See this actually makes sense: Woke is a liberal mind virus right? So if Wormy Holehead here is chosen then he's sure to not be infected by the mind virus because the worms ate all of it! Perfect Woke Free™ cabinet!

In reality though I'd wager this is a lie to further distance himself from project 2025. He'll get to say "see, it's Kennedy picking people not the heritage foundation!" But it will still be all project 2025 rubber stamp heritage chucklefucks
I get Republican ads in the mail (hey, let them waste their money) and the latest commits a large chunk to desperately trying to distance Donnie from Project 2025 lol.
I have been getting these too. Any chance your in or near PA? Wondering how big that campaign is.
No but another battleground state, so yeah... It must be a pretty consistent message.
Well, Trump knows that RFK Jr. has some help in the ol' thinkin' machine.
The brain worm that's Controlling his mind?
Hey if it worked for Fry, it can work for him!
We all know well that Trump will use the Heritage Foundation to choose his people, not some rando who nobody cares about.
Why even write an article about that?
I'm pretty sure it's the other way around. Heritage Foundation will be picking FOR him.
Trump is just a useful idiot that they can manipulate because he wants the power to stay out of prison. They put whoever they want in place, they'll drop a binder of things for him to sign on his desk on day one, and in return, they'll help him steal the election so he can make all his legal troubles go away.
That's why he has no idea on actual issues or policy. Because he doesn't care. It's useless information to him since other people are in charge of that while he gets to pretend he's important.
Enough people care about RFK Jr. to possibly swing the election in states where it's close. I hope not, but don't discount it.
I missread that as "ruining".
To a Republican they are litterally the same thing. Make the government less efficient, use the inefficiency you created to argue that government should be cut because isn't inefficient. Rinse and repeat.
Sounds like you read it correctly.
Can someone please convince him that Trump is a whale?
First pick: brain worm
Cabinet of the Brain Worm
The time of the brain worms has come.
They Live nightmares begin to intensify again.
I think it would be a good idea to keep this person far from any position of power.
smart move by trump getting someone who makes jd vance less weird by comparison.
Logan act? Nah, that's for chumps obviously.
It’s simple, just ask his worm
That's frightening. Good thing he's a lying liar and might be making this up. And the orange man is also a lying liar, so even if he made promises, they aren't locked in.
He also told tucker that jd vance was in the meeting and asked him how long he haf been in the room they were in.
I'm just kidding. Neither of them could talk with one of putin's balls in each of their mouths.
Y'all do realize that the President is the head of the Executive branch, and in that role picks people who will be running the government?
If it were, say, Beto advising Harris and we had the exact same headline, we'd be talking about whether Beto might give good advice.
And yes, I get the obvious; A fresh Trump administration would unleash a bloodbath across the Executive.
