      The Maintenance Phase podcast had a good ep on how he deliberately misconstrues studies to support his antivax positions. It’s on their free feed for anyone who’s curious. Charlatan all the way down.

    I mean the good news is he’ll get the dumbass vote. The Qs, bleach drinkers, horse medicine consumers which for the most part vote for Rs.

    I think it’s good for Biden.

    He’s correct about Blackrock though, wanting to buy up housing and artificially inflate rents. It’s a goddamn shame Biden won’t step in and fix the housing crisis by stopping corporations from owning single family houses.

    In general if you belong to one party and you switch to independent and you pull more voters from the opposite party, you’re out of touch.

    Do we think he is going to take votes away from anyone? I think the USA will need all the help it can get to keep Trump out of the white house. Trumps people look like they will never turn on him

      I think the theory is that he’ll siphon votes away from Democrats using the name Kennedy. I’m sure there will be a few. But not many.

    I said this somewhere else too, but this guy reminds me of my 70 year old aunts who get all their news from clickbait articles on Facebook and who think sharing those articles with you will change your mind

    He’s nothing more than yet another long-respected brand name that’s currently going down the shitter.

    Honestly, he’s an idiot and he certainly won’t get my vote, but I can’t even be mad about him running. I’m just glad to see a ballot with more than two relevant people on it. Sick and tired of choosing between “dumbass with a D next to his name” and “more dangerous dumbass with an R next to his name”.

      For fuck sake… Ralph Nader was not that long ago. In our first past the post system, a third option will always be a spoiler.
