Now that he has the endorsement of the man with the brain worm, this is a good time to reflect on what DonOLD really thinks of RFK Jr (who he's now calling "phenomenal" and "brilliant") and what he said about him just a few months ago.
TRUMP: “Junior’ is totally Anti-Gun, an Extreme Environmentalist who makes the Green New Scammers look Conservative, a Big Time Taxer and Open Border Advocate, and Anti-Military/Vet. ... I’d even take Biden over Junior’, because our Country would last a year or two longer prior to collapse – But it would be dead either way. His Views on Vaccines are FAKE, as is everything else about his Candidacy. Let the Democrats have RFK Jr. They deserve him!”
And RFK Jr had a lot to say about Trump in May of this year.
RFK Jr: “We had the worst rioting and looting this country had seen since the 60s under President Trump. He inflamed racial tensions and didn’t keep us safe. Instead of using federal law enforcement to stop the rioting, Trump thought it was good optics to let Democrat-run cities burn.
President Trump bragged about arming Ukraine more than Obama did. He also walked away unilaterally from the intermediate range nuclear missile treaty with Russia, destabilizing our relationship. He also exacerbated tensions between Ukraine and Russia that ultimately caused a war.
President Trump did nothing to solve the opioid crisis. It got far worse under his tenure while his appointees running HHS were in the pocket of big pharma.
If you think a second Trump term would be any different, you are engaging in wishful thinking.”
These two pieces of sh1t deserve each other.

RFK is small potatoes. Sure, he's the son of one of the Kennedy wunderkinde (Joe, John, Robert). So what.
I saw a documentary on him recently (either Frontline or VICE, most likely...don't remember which now), and he is duplicitous. When he addresses one audience, he says one thing. A different audience (or TV/podcast interview), he says the exact opposite. Not just trying to "fudge", but two completely incompatible positions. He can't have both positions.
He lost me the first time he railed against vaccines. That tells me he is illiterate about many things, even while he claims that he will change his mind if you give him evidence. There's lots of evidence for vaccines (e.g. polio is almost non-existent in the US, as is smallpox). Just as one example.
Basically, he's an idiot. I suspect his followers will split between Harris and the convict. The anti-vaxxers and conspiracy nuts will gravitate towards the convict, and the ones who believed Jr regarding some of his other policies will go towards Harris. He already has a tiny minority (~5%), so if that splits relatively evenly, then the numbers are within statistical error for the two main candidates. Big deal.

" These two pieces of sh1t deserve each other."
good morning common, how are the interviews with fair and balanced msnbc going? Have they offered you an hour show yet? Level with us, if Bobby dropped out and backed team Obama, I mean Harris, would you be citing Bobbys fine work on environment issues, racial equality, free speech, public health etc? Come on man, once a quarter level with us. Thank you, your pal, hc.

No need for guessing. RFK Jr approached the Harris campaign first to sell his endorsement.
They refused to return his call.

RFK Jr approached the Harris campaign first to sell his endorsement.
They refused to return his call. Did anybody on this board hear/see the video of Trump's beautiful call to RFK Jr.? Kennedy had his cellphone on speaker as someone videoed the event in which Trump dangled a vague carrot for RFK's cooperation.
"Robert F. Kennedy Jr. issued an apology Tuesday morning on social media after his son shared a video of the longshot independent candidate on the phone with former President Donald Trump, who tried to persuade Kennedy to endorse him.
"When President Trump called me I was taping with an in-house videographer," Kennedy wrote. "I should have ordered the videographer to stop recording immediately. I am mortified that this was posted."
"I would love you to do something. And I think it'll be so good for you and so big for you," Trump said over the phone.It was copied for posterity before rfk's kid deleted it.

Terry Alvin Doughty is the Chief United States district judge of the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana. Nominated by President Donald Trump...He has issued controversial rulings on COVID-19 vaccine mandates, social media censorship, and abortion rightsThis crazy emmer effer has just ruled that RFK Jr can sue the Biden admin for it's attempts to squash lies in the media that endangered the public health in the midst of a pandemic.

RFK, Jr. must be dumber than I thought if that is all he got from Trump. A vague promise of something 'big'. LMAO.
Trump always sounds like a junior high punk when he talks: And I think it'll be so good for you and so big for you. So effing childish.
