Like how do you try to win democrat votes by going on Right wing, Far Right, and conspiracy media?
It's like all RFK thought it would take to win the Presidency is to have the Kennedy last name and be antivaxx, because that's about all he has to offer other than empty promises of legalized weed.
I don't align with either party, at all. I don't like any candidates, and question if I'll even bother voting.
If I do vote, I would have to determine how much the negatives weigh down positives from any candidate, and I'm not sure yet if RFK's BS runs too deep for me to stomach, compared to the few benefits he may offer. Those few benefits, though, are among my primary interests. At this point, he seems the best option to push for environmental protections and government transparency.
Is he a loon? Yes, but I firmly believe all of our candidates are severely psychologically imbalanced.
His belief is using a free market approach on the environment.
True, and that may be the wrong approach. But from what I gather, he would be incentivizing and subsidizing tech like renewables to make them more attractive to the market. He would also push more litigation towards bad actors.
I'm not convinced that anything else we're doing or any other plans we have are going to work, so I'm ok with trying a well-managed free market route.
Wait lmao he was supposed to be running on the democrat ticket? I think he still has an issue with substance abuse if that’s true, yeeesh.
I like RFK's stance on being a neutral country (anti military industrial complex / anti war) and his environmentalism. He's the only Democrat I'd ever vote for.
Ukraine is the world capital of neo Nazism going back decades. Ultra nationalist militias worship Nazi terrorists like Stephan Bandera. Yet the DNC will call you a Nazi for not wanting to arm the genuine article of fascism. I see RFK as a breath of fresh air.
But the neo conservative warhawk DNC party is eyeballs deep in the pocket of Ratheon, General Dynamics, and Lockheed Martin. Hell even AOC voted to send the Nazis weapons.
The Republicans have the Trump problem.
I really believe RFK is the best man for the job.
