In his own words two weeks ago, RFK Jr. admitted, “if he ran as an independent, he would hurt Trump more than Biden,” therefore he announced today he is running as an independent. Stopping Donald Trump is the priority. Despite the pontifications to the contrary, RFK Jr’s status in the race is secondary.
The best thing anyone can do to disrupt his effort is simply to share his leftist, big government, policy proposals.
(Associated Press) – Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced he is dropping his Democratic bid for president and re-entering the 2024 race for the White House as an independent.
Kennedy, an heir to the storied political family, said Monday he would no longer be running as a Democratic candidate, instead opting to leave the party to pursue an independent bid for president.
“I’m here to declare myself an independent candidate for president of the United States,” he told a crowd of supporters in Philadelphia. “But that’s not all − I’m here to join you in making a new Declaration of Independence for our entire nation.”
[…] When Kennedy was running as a Democratic candidate, skeptics said his platform crossed the political spectrum, ranging from that of a “Kennedy Democrat” to issues that resonate with the right and could potentially pull voters away from Trump.
The now-independent candidate struggled to label himself when USA TODAY asked him where he falls on the political spectrum earlier this year.
“I think the party definitions are so topsy-turvy right now, I wouldn’t know how to describe myself,” he told USA TODAY. “I would describe myself as a liberal Democrat, which means I’m for civil liberties, I’m against war, I’m against corporate domination, I’m against censorship. But I don’t know now − those are kind of Republican issues now, strangely.”
And Kennedy has made an effort to reach to the right. He is scheduled to speak at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Las Vegas later this month, alongside other Republican figures.
Kennedy told USA TODAY earlier this year part of his campaign strategy is to reach all supporters − even those registered to the opposite party. He found endorsements and airtime with celebrities including Comedian Rob Schneider, NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers, actress Alicia Silverstone, former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and the ultra-conservative InfoWars host Alex Jones.
Joe Rogan, a talk show host who has been critical of the government’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and vaccines and hosted Kennedy on his show to discuss vaccines. Kennedy in June participated with Elon Musk in a Twitter Space. (read more)
I listened to this and Kennedy’s talking points were based on emotions so he is going after the female votes.
The Camelot dynasty is over Bob J
In other words… time to dust off that ole’ classic…”Reimagined Camelot”. I suppose we’ll get a lot of shirtless Kennedy’s playing football, sailing, jumping off a cliff….or something….
That horse raspy voice will not wooo anyone, Kennedy better show up with a monkey that can juggle plates while smoking a cigar alongside Monica Lewinsky.
His voice doesn’t project strength/confidence – which the world needs/wants.
…….and it will work.
No it won’t work with me. Trump is my President. I will be voting a third time for Trump.And he will win a third time. I am MAGA and proud of it!
Well, yes. All of us here will vote for Trump.
It’s the huge number of independents, blue colar workers, traditional liberals and the anti-COVID vax voters that Trump needs and had before, a lot of them.
Bobby speaking at CPAC has me very nervous too.
We desperately need him to steal away votes from Biden, not Trump.
Newsome, rather than O’Biden.
No,it won’t work with the women. Imagine you are a woman home alone at night or being attacked by a car full of hoodlums who would you rather see coming to your rescue Bobby Kennedy or Donald Trump? ( Imagine they both have the same weapon appropriate in the circumstances)
I just unsubscribed to everything Kennedy. I was deluding myself hoping he was sincere about reforming the USA and thought he could be a cabinet level position in the Trump administration.
But I guess he’s a Democrat first and an American second or third after being in with the liberal Democrats. My husband was right again, darn!
The fact that you admit that you WERE subscribed to “everything Kennedy” says a lot more than the rest of your post.
I’m sure that was just rhetoric and “Jazzbogie” wasn’t subscribed to “everything Kennedy”.
Why are you knocking Jazzbogie for learning the truth and changing her mind?
Hey, I’ve listened to RFK Jr speak quite a few times.
Bobby is very good, very specific (about most things), very knowledgeable and pleasant.
There is a reason he is invited to CPAC which, to me, is a very scary thing as a Trump supporter.
Sundance is right– this is the establishment using Bobby to attempt to defeat Trump. It’s an overt move by the Rinos… and its alarming.
Bobby is not ripping his competition to shreds. He’s not a politician either. He’s an outsider like Trump.
WILL Trump go after Bobby hard? I don’t think he should.
It might “play” better with the public IF Trump treats Bobby nicely. It will throw off the dems/rinos too, big time bc it’s out of character for Trump to do that. Keep them confused!
Trump should say he likes and respects Bobby. They agree on a lot of things
BUT… Bobby can’t do this brutal job. He’s not prepared… and that’s the TRUTH too… and Americans fed up with Biden WILL realize because we ARE smart, not stupid.
Bobby cannot take-on the DS. They will destroy him OR he will be forced to comply with their demands which are destroying our country.
The nation is in danger…
and Bobby will require a huge learning curve … both domestically and globally.
He has some good ideas and gpod intentions… but he will be met with the SAME interior bureacratic force that attacked me for 4 years … and still doing it.
I, Trump, am not blackmailable… obviously.
We dont just know what is in Bobby’s past and to what degree he is vulnerable and blackmailable.
The DS will simply do the same thing to Bobby they did to Trump… and we do not have TIME for that maniacal GAME anymore. The world is moving toward global war.
Trump is ready… to take them on and he knows WHO the evil players are. Bobby does not.
Trump has a lot of executive experience, in life, but now also as POTUS. He knows how to deal with Congress too. Bobby doesnt. I like Bobby. Maybe he can be President in the future but not now. I know he can’t do the job NOW.
Trump should call him Bobby too. His friends and supporters call him Bobby.
Trump knows the global leaders… and Bobby does not… and that matters, especially now. A LOT if damage has been done by Biden… and Bobby will not know where to begin to correct it and he won’t know what players he needs to help him INSTEAD OF stab him in the back.
The nation is in decline.
The world is in danger. We TRULY don’t have time for Bobby to “train on the job.”
And, Bobby will end up hiring most of the same people Biden hired– leftists/globalists fascists Marxists… and they will work around him, keep him in the dark… and they will likely succeed… and continue running our govt from behind the curtain, unelected. We just don’t have time for this.
IF Bobby refuses to insult Trump, but tries to keep things on a high, intellectual playing plain, and Trump doesn’t… then
Bobby can “best” Trump with a lot of Americans, enough to put Biden back in the WH.
Trump should go for the jugular with Biden… but not with Bobby. Be nice and FATHERLY to Bobby. Say I loved his dad and uncle and John Jr….and I like and respect him. It’s not personal but I Trump KNOW he can’t do this job at this dire time in US history.
See what Bobby does… but I think Bobby will continue to try to keep things on an intellectual level which Americans DO appreciate. WE are smart, not stupid, and want to be spoken to with respect.
IMO, Trump should say that he admired Bobby for taking the “hits” as Trump has… but mention that he/ Trump has ALREADY been hit with everything possible. Bobby hasn’t.
And I/Trump would seriously consider appointing Bobby to an important post in my administration because he has a lot of knowledge, some good ideas and the guts to take attacks.
Trump should say: most likely Bobby will reject what I (Trump) just said because, after all, he’s running for President too. And that’s OK. I get it. I have no beef with Bobby. I think gets a good man. I just KNOW can’t do this job… at least not in 2025.
The most critical problem for Bobby, an outsider like I was, is that no matter what lofty ideals he comes into the presidency with, he will be cut off at the knees. He will either do what he’s told to do or they will go after him like they did me when I refused to obey. They will appoint special counsels to investigate Bobby too amd impeach him… and set him up AND put spies inside the WH.
The DSers WILL do ANYTHING and I don’t know IF Bobby can withstand the attacks he will face. It will be 1000x worse than anything he has experienced in his life.
Kare508, I love your post. Its exactly how I think and feel about Bobby and Trump.
Someone has to point out to the sheeple who are not firmly founded in MAGA what Bobby’s true positions have been and are.
He is for the climate change agenda.
He thought people standing against the covid hoax should be forced into submission.
His family, all his children have been vaccinated.
His wife had a party and all attendees had to be covid vaccinated.
He is for extreme gun control measures.
I also seem to recall reading that when heavily criticized for questioning the covid vaccinations, RFKJr backtracked on his stance about vaccines saying something along the lines of he didn’t want people to stop getting vaccines, but that he just wanted testing data released and analyzed to see what it shows. I will see if I kept a link to what he said.
Well I gave him a small amount of money when they wouldn’t provide him Secret Service Protection and that somehow subscribed me to Team Kennedy requests for donations and The Kennedy Beacon- a daily newsletter about him. My donation got me “on the list.”
This seems to happen with all candidates even if you give them $5, they get your email and/or text and hound you repeatedly.
And with the Republicans, I get solicitations from candidates I’ve never heard of.
With Kennedy I was 15 years old when JFK was shot and 19 with Bobby Kennedy. Those memories are burned in my brain and I remember the good things about both of them. I was nostalgic a bit about RFK Jr. Also I read the Anthony Fauci book which was very powerful and well-researched and took Fauci to the woodshed which I think is necessary.
Maybe. He was bad to his 2nd wife, the one who hung herself.
But ….I’m worried. I have family that voted for Trump but love Bobby… so they will vote for him. I’ll have to see IF I can convince them not to. Will be a real slog. 🙄
I’m a female.
I vote.
Clueless politicians who think they will get my vote by appealing to emotions are badly mistaken.
I guess with that kind of generalizing, I can claim that Nikki will go after the male vote by showing cleavage???? Yeah. That’s it. For sure.
Nooooo! Ick.
Nikki Haley is very attractive. How is that up for debate?
😳
Well when she is standing next to Chris Crispie.
I disagree but I support your right to a bad opinion!
She’s 2 a.m. lovely if you are drunk and looking for a roll in the hay.
That would backfire for sure!
She’ll show lower if she thinks it will help her.
The tail just north of her hooker boots.
She has none to speak of.
Well, yeah, I know that….I wasn’t commenting about cleavage quality but about Snellville’s political logic.
It did not require an election to determine the 2020 President.
That’s true. It’s why Newscasters these day tend to be babes.
I ‘m pretty certain that there are some men who would vote for cleavage…..
Nikki has cleavage?
He’s a green dreaming conman set to destroy the last of American jobs!
He’s a Kennedy afterall.
Has anybody here
Seen little Bobby
Can you tell me where he’s go-ooo-one?
He scammed a lot of people
He was good for nothing
Unlike Abraham, Martin, and John.
If he pulls the female dem voters, that should leave Trump at the top. They don’t vote for Trump anyway.
Kennedy is slick. He has the polished demeanor of his upper crust background and his legal expertise.
Yet, even when I compare the two men and their wild youth — the difference is glaring.
Trump always worked. He did not/does not do drugs or drink. He has always been employed from a young age. He achieved and his businesses grew. As they grew, he enriched and supported those who worked with and for him. He is loyal. He is a builder who is pro country
As president, I watched him assert the same drive toward strengthening and enriching our country after surviving 8 years of the communist-in-chief.
Now we have the communist-in-chief’s third term with his 80 year old, developmentally delayed son, Joe.
Sorry, Bobby ain’t gonna fix this sewer we are about to drown in. Trump, the negotiator/ builder has already proven he knows construction. The country needs to be rebuilt.
Bobby is basically a one- issue entitled liberal. He has been very destructive during his lifetime (even though he has turned it around). I don’t trust him.I don’t care what he says. I have observed how he has lived his life. He is not the person to lead us out of this mess.
I’m voting trump.
Same!!
Third time is the charm
Me too.
Me, too. But my dem-voting female relatives will vote for Bob. This won’t help PedoJoe.
Retired Magistrate here: Never trust a Democrat or in this case a newly minted “Independent” who is still a Democrat attempting to steal votes from our real President Donald John Trump.
Can’t believe he thinks doing this as awake as most of us are, and there’s nothing wrong with this. Like we are not going to check his past……
He just shot hos political career goodbye! Once a Kennedy, always a Kennedy! Now, just another Democrat puke!
Narcissistic Opportunistic Parasitic Entity.
NOPE.
All the cool kids are dooming it.
Amen Marcia! 👍
Marcia, as I stated above, compare how these two men have lived their lives. Donald Trump has been productive his entire life, and many people profited from it. There are numerous testimonials from employees who rave about him.
Kennedy is a one-hit wonder, basically. I do agree with his research on vaccines. Yet, when I compare how he has lived his life and the number of people he has impacted positively — the polish isn’t so shiny.
Donald Trump has proven who he is and what he will withstand for his country .
God bless him. I will never withdraw my support. He deserves every medal that we the people can bestow on him. He has earned it a thousand fold. 🇺🇲🙏💕🛡️
“I’m here to join you in making a new Declaration of Independence for our entire nation.”
Im perfectly happy with the Original Declaration of Independence.
Yes, I will be sharing his far left policies far and wide. Just another Democrat hellbent on destroying this country. He too has declared a war on fossil fuels even though EV’s are far worse for the environment l
Ron DeSantis. But a Kennedy.
That’s really good. 😉
TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP.
2024 is going to be wild y’all.
His daughter works for the C-A?
So just like every other Kennedy this creep will do anything to further his pursuit of the good life at all cost.
They are the most immoral clan of the lowest of the low.
How can a man who’s had close family members eliminated by the deep state knowingly position him self to undermine the only candidate who is actually fighting the deep state Thus helping the deep state to prevail.
I have no words for this type of treachery .
One good thing though.
I will never have to be in his company .
Thank God.
He is a Kennedy, there is no moral compass.
I believe it’s his daughter-in-law.
Kennedy Family Hero Che Guevara Captured and Killed 56 Years Ago This Week
“My mom loves Che Guevara. Her dog is named Che,” (U.S. Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr, New York Post, April, 15, 2020.)
“Well, have you seen or heard anywhere from this media that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. might be unfit for presidential office because his mother (with whom he is reportedly extremely close) worships – to the point of naming her dog after, and decorating her home with pictures of – a war-mongering, mass-murdering terrorist whose lifelong craving was to
exterminate Americans? “
https://townhall.com/columnists/humbertofontova/2023/10/07/kennedy-family-hero-che-guevara-captured-and-killed-56-years-ago-this-week-n2629464
A lot of Democrats love Che. An awful lot of them. And they see nothing wrong with that. A really sick bunch of people.
They love being bloody edgy.
No Cuban American votes for you.
RFK Jr is just taking a cue from the Western PA Rep Conor Lamb’s campaign in 2018 … he ran on President Trump’s Platform, that he is a “nice guy” and that he would not be a lackey of Nancy Peloisi.
Just like Conor Lamb … RFK will draw a few Democrats and allot of Independent’s and Republicans who think “President Trump is just too mean”.
Do not under estimate the number of terminally stupid people, too dumb to even bother looking at President Trump’s record vs believing the too mean hype.
Most people have never even seen President Trump’s record. All they see is the 24 hours a day 365 days a year lies and attacks on President Trump by the fake news media for the last 8 years.
They don’t need to see anything about his record in the media.
Everybody experienced his record in real life.
Trump or die
Can we have all the Jr fans go first …
I had no use for the Kennedys in the 1960s and I’ve got no use for them now.
Just another corrupt, rich bitch political dynasty trying to keep themselves in the game.
Unfortunately, they will appeal to the large segment of Americans who worship the celebrity status above all else. the same people who keep the tabloid magazines in business.
“I had no use for the Kennedys in the 1960s and I’ve got no use for them now.”
Thank you. I’m standing right next to you.
RFK Jr. – Climate Control and Gun Change.
You beat me to it. That’s it in a nutshell.
And he wants to ban all plastics and fracking. A global warming scam proponent. We are a constitutional republic not a monarchy. If his name was Jones or Patel no one would give him the time of day. No to all siblings, relatives et al of current or past politicians. He and his wife are also fans of Castro. As recent as 2015 they went to Cuba specifically to get a meeting with Castro.
Now, just another “Charmin”!
For all my disagreements with Trump. If he was in the White House the current foreign policy disaster would not be upon us. RFKjr is just another Demoncrat. Looks and see who got the US into all the wars, Bush II was an exception but the dems gave no real opposition to that one.
Bush is Uniparty, so mostly a Democrat. He called Bill Clinton his brother from another mother.
Its a wonder he didn’t call Obama his sister from another mother……….
No such thing as an ‘independent’ if uttered from the mouth of a demoncrat.
Just shut the hell up, Mr. Kennedy.
Since their cheating techniques are being countered and exposed and all eyes are on that, ‘they’ has to come up with a new (actually old) strategy – the Splitter, just as many have surmised.
DS/IC / Elite ‘op.’
Why?
The need for control is a reaction to fear (of Trump and what he will do)!
What exactly are RFK, jr’s leftist, big government policy proposals?
He is, among other things, as intensely committed to Green New Deal policies as any hard-left Dem is. RFK Jr. worships at the altar of climate change being the root of all evil.
THAT ALONE is a dealbreaker.
He wanted to lock up Climate Crisis Deniers.
Arent you being obtuse by asking an obvious question?
At this point. it really doesn;’t matter!
Firearm Confiscation, in addition to CRT, “Green Energy,” technology communication controls, etc.
I do not buy it, the 75 million who voted Trump will vote Trump again, The Dems can’t win without cheating anyway.
R’EFFN’K makes that cheat much easier by making it a three way scheme.
sorry guys, I’m not buying into him hurting Trump more than China Joe. Trump supporters are not gonna move. Democrats and Biden supporters are getting restless and antsy.
You discount the number of Independents and Republicans on the fence, who are very luke warm supporters of President Trump … looking for a candidate who claims “to have the same values” but who is not “as mean as President Trump”.
RFK Jr can draw allot of these voters away, especially among the group 50+ years old.
What is this “mean” you speak of? Booming economy compared to now? Trump tells the truth? Uses quite the cute and appropriate nicknames?
The quote marks indicated he didn’t take ownership of such sentiments.
“Mean” is one of the Left’s BS assaults on President Trump.
Childish, but there are a lot of childish Americans out there.
You need a lot of names to get on the ballot in every state.
Voter records = fake signatures on a petition, kind of like ballots.
Finally. Someone else who gets it.
Just to add an interesting note to Sundance’s article:
ALL the INDEPENDENTS in Congress are listed as Independent who “Caucus with the Democrats”.
Just sayin’.
Disagree with Sundance. Conservative/Independent Ross Perot didn’t help Bush when he ran as an Independent. It helped Clinton win the election. Kennedy will hurt Biden even worse than Perot hurt Bush.
It’s the wrong argument. It assumes legitimate counting of the votes. You know we don’t have that anymore. A 3rd candidate is just a place to assign votes and pretend Trump didn’t win again.
Genau!
Yeah but that’s only one way brother.
I know this being a Jets fan….
More likely Newsome, not O’Biden.
Nothing sandwich. God is setting up the devil biglie and Good shall triumph!!
Watch him channel Teddy
And we’ll remember to stay out of his car!
The more he talks, the less I listen. He really should have stayed with CHD, assisting the innocents, who are maimed, plus dying for profits. A much greater, honorable Godly calling, then fixing the Biden disaster.
Mr. Donald J. Trump, all the way.
If POTUS Trump ran as an independent as well would that make for a good competition? And, simultaneously make both political parties less relevant? Dunno.
If you close your eyes and listen to him with glasses over your ears, you’d swear it was Katharine Hepburn. 😁
I wonder if Spencer Tracy’s children ever did that?
“Declare YOUR Independence” 🤣 🤣 🤣 🥱 🥱 🥱 😂 😂 😂
is more of that
“Yes WE Can”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
WE can and WE will
>~~~> Make America Great Again ~~~~~~> VOTE for President Donald Trump ❣
This whole thing about Kennedy announcing he is going to run as an “independent” is complete bull crap. Please don’t waste your time getting upset about this latest distraction.
This is why I am not worried that RFK Jr. is going to take votes away from our President Trump. (or even his DemonRat opponent).
There is no such thing as the “independent” party. If you know anything about elections, then you’d know that what people call “independent” is actually blank, that is NO party affiliation. Someone please tell me the name of this new “independent” party that he is going to run on.
In NY for example, If you are a registered voter, you are either Democrat, Republican, Conservative or maybe Working Families and not too long ago, Libertarian. If you are not registered to an actual party, you are a BLANK. You are NOT an “independent.”
Example: The Libertarians had a ballot line until recently when the Dems and the Repubs decided they were getting too dangerous and they changed the requirements such that they no longer had a valid line on the ballot. Apparently they do have a ballot line in some states, but certainly not all 50.
Now the Libertarians are dying for RFK Jr. to say he is going to run as one of them. That means that they would have to have a ballot line ALL 50 states in order for him to even have a chance at succeeding. The Libertarians do have infrastructure in many states but not actual ballot line.
They are hoping that if RFK Jr. signs up as a Libertarian, it will bring them money and a bit of clout.
Does he have a chance in hell of winning on a third party line? Ain’t never gonna happen.
There is no other party that I know of that has ballot access in all 50 states. If any of you know different-please let us know!
As it stands now, RFK will not be on the ballot in all 50 states and it remains to be seen how he’s going to create a new party or revitalize an old one.
It is impossible to start from scratch at this late juncture, just a bit more than a year out.
Every state has different requirements to get on the ballot and none of them are easy. The petition process can require hundreds of thousands of signatures. Every state will have to have its campaign set up just like the Dems and the Repubs.
RFK Jr. is a coward and a phony in my estimation. If he really was sincere he would do what our great President Trump did with the GOP- TAKE OVER THE DAMN DEMONRAT PARTY!
But no- he is just another phony liberal Commie. Screw RFK Jr. and the lyin’ dog face pony he rode in on.
This.
Also, he helps Trump in that his efforts to get on all 50 state ballots will mean the states can’t exclude Trump, as many are quietly working to do.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think that the efforts to exclude President Trump from the ballots in various states have nothing to do with party affiliation.
From what I’ve read, they are trying to force him off the ballot for his various “crimes” and the phony Fedsurrection.
I doubt they care how Trump is excluded, only that he is. Lawfare will invent a means if they have to. A criminal conviction somewhere might help them, but they will fabricate a means in any case.
President Trump and “Seneca the Elder” … two great NY patriots!
Wow- What a great compliment! Thank you.
Thanks seneca, that’s an angle that had not occurred to me.
I immediately wondered whether or not the Libertarian Party is on the ballot in the swing states (which is probably where RFKJr support would be expected to make a difference, if it is anywhere).
I found this article that claimed it was on the ballot everywhere in 2020 for Jorgenson:
https://www.lp.org/lp-presidential-nominee-on-the-ballot-in-all-50-states-plus-dc/
If true – I guess the next procedural question is, does RFKJr have to do this ballot access exercise all over for 2024? Was it considered to apply only to Jorgenson, or will it carry over?
It seems to me that the “modern” Libertarian party has been co-opted entirely by the UniParty – with nothing left of the “pox on both their houses” attitude that attracted me to it 30 years ago. And that means, it also seems to me, that the UniParty would be fine with that particular fly in the ointment…
Thanks for sending me the link, but this sentence is false:
“Provisions vary considerably among states, but none require the nominees of the Democratic or Republican parties to petition for ballot access.”
I can tell you for a fact that NY absolutely requires signed petitions to get on the ballots for Dems, Repubs and Libertarians when they run. In fact, that’s how the Libertarians got screwed in my state when the powers that be in both parties decided to kick them off the ballot by changing the signature requirements.
Be that as it may- and I don’t understand why I am the only one pointing this out- if you are not set up already in ALL 50 states, and will be on the ballot, you have a snowball’s chance in hell of getting elected.
Look at the MONEY that’s being spent by the DemonRats, Repubicans and our President Trump! We are talking BILLIONS of dollars to run these campaigns and these are smooth running, experienced organizations.
Does anyone seriously think that Kennedy has this kind of back up?? He is gaslighting us.. He is not a serious person.
Tried to watch RFK but his gasping is too much, shame but just looks like he struggles to get points across, looks starched. Old school Dem they need to be pull more to center.
Ross Perot? He ain’t!
Ross Perot was the best candidate in the 1992 election.
He is the only Candidate to stand against Vax and CIA/FBI. I CARE about that. But then i remember he is still a Democrat. Also speaks about Hunter and Joe/Ukraine. But hes still a Democrat
I am afraid tho he will pull the Voters from Trump, some including me are tired of his name calling . Yes i know what i have to do so dont yell. 🙂
for got to say tho i dont think the Demoncrats will let us have an Election.
I think of Trump like The Magnificent Seven- the old movie with Yul Brynner and Steve McQueen and we are the innocent peasant/farmers. We need to hire a gunslinger to help us rid the town of the bad people who threaten us. Then we can return to our peaceful ways. Sort of like returning to the Shire. I apologize for mixing my metaphors and movies.
You should watch the original movie from which The Magnificent Seven was bootlegged – Seven Samurai. It’s far superior.
Seen them both and disagree. The 1960 version of “The Magnificent Seven” is word for word almost a re-booting of the Japanese classic and every bit it’s equal.
The director of “The Seven Samurai” , Akira Kurosawa, gifted “The Magnificent Seven’s” director, John Sturges, a samarai sword in admiration.
“The Magnificent Seven” was a flop in America upon initial release but a world wide hit. 89,000,000 tickets were sold overseas, including 67,000,000 in the Soviet Union.

And this is his signature issue!
Yikes. And I even bought his book – but did not actually read it because it seemed afterwards I already knew what was in it, simply from reading here.
The dark days of CoupVID-19(84) led to many acts of desperation – for me I guess buying that book was one.
This is the same CIA and Deep State that likely killed his uncle, and then his own father.
He may be unwittingly furthering their objectives, but I would be surprised if he was collaborating with them considering the family history.
In any event, who politically attacks him hardest will tell you who he is hurting more.
I don’t think he is going to dent PDJT’s base. But a lot of liberal soccer moms might peel off the Dem reservation for him. The pressure is now on to retire the potato for a fresh new face on the DNC box of bad soap. We’ll see.
I won’t elaborate deeper today why the Deep State won’t give him SS protection.
I’ve felt that he probably does have SS protection and the narrative is just another part of the game they play.
I would not be at all surprised. Hope one of our citizen journalists unearths that tidbit soon.
So can we freaking stop, for once and for all, the fan-fiction comments about how Trump should choose RFK Jr. as his running mate because that would make them unbeatable?
I saw so many of these comments here the last few months, and I categorized them with the 2016 comments that “Trump should choose Paul Manafort has his running mate” and “Corey Lewandowski would make a great running mate for Trump.”
RFKjr carries the most important qualification of a Trump VP… the Uniparty won’t dare impeach Trump for fear his VP will screw them worse. Trump will need that qualification filled in his VP, even if it’s not this guy.
Ummm . . . yeah . . . one more time: Trump had a traitor for a VP last time, and that didn’t work too well. Not just NO, but HELL NO!
You make my point. The VP has to be a poison pill, and RFKjr is likely that, although I’d rather a Rand Paul type.
Mark Robinson, about whom sundance wrote an article, fits that bill very well.
and there are enough stupid republicans who will vote for him
every day I say to myself, please spare us from dumbasses!
Kennedy is leaving the Democrat Party to run as a Democrat. Got it.
🤣 👍🏻
He’s a Kennedy. They’re all snakes.
And it seems, all sex addicts. We don’t need that in the White House again!
other than Covid and Fauci there is almost zero difference in him and Biden – he is anti-second amendment, pro-abortion, very much against fossil fuels and pro green new deal. He was the first one to jimp on Maui fire to blame Global Climate Change.
Robert Kennedy Jr – Internal Polling Revealed in a 3-Wqy Race, Robert Kennedy Jr Takes Away the Trump Lead Over Biden
by our Sundance
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2023/10/02/rfk-jr-internal-polling-revealed-in-a-3-way-race-robert-kennedy-jr-takes-away-the-trump-lead-over-biden/
I don’t fear this at all. How things will go: There will be an initial bump in the polls and it will look as if Camelot is reborn for one bright shining moment. But then, Sundance and others will post deep dives into RFKjr’s background, allegiances and general leftism. After that, Laura Loomer will get ahold of him like one of Biden’s crazy German Shepherds and tear him to bits culturally, socially, economically and politically…this is the template that destroyed DeSantis, and is likely to work again.
The online meme army stands prepared to destroy another pretender to the Oval.
Thanks, Maquis, already started on one…
Your scenario is possible among never Trump RINOs who avail themselves of right wing media but RFK Jr. is more likely courting main stream non-progressive Democrats and the undecided voters who get their news from the legacy media, also known as Democratic Activists. But I could be wrong!
That group (DementoRat
ActivistsBrainwashed Useful Idiots) will be all cognitively dissonant when RFKJr comes a-callin’.In their heads: “But…but… I thought vaccines were GOOD!”
It won’t be like “We have always been at war with EastAsia.” Pfizer will see to that.
The next step will be RFKJr forced to very publicly denounce his own previous apostasy on the jabs…and probably on Ukraine as well…
…thus harming his seeming appeal to “independents.”
Quite a rabbit hole of tricky attempted psyops for the UniParty.
Laura Loomer is the bomb!
As in his full support of the slaughter of unborn human beings up to 3 months, Trump impeachments OK, same sex marriage ok, government support of Planned Parenthood, supports climate change actions, ok with CRT, ok with born citizenship, supports mail in ballots, illegal aliens should have access to government healthcare, path to citizenship for illegals, no drilling in Anwar, government subsidies for solar/wind power, guaranteed healthcare for all, and the list of archaic, liberal/progressive policies that have never worked goes on. Other than this he’s straight up MAGA! https://www.isidewith.com/candidates/robert-kennedy-jr-2/policies
not to mention that he was downright brutal to his wife. Mary..he literally drove her to hang her self during their divorce proceedings. this is no Mr. Nice Guy…he is only right on a couple of issues..on the rest…no way…
Oooh, such a great list! Thank you!
Strange that he would align himself with the same evil cabal that murdered his father and uncle.
Stockholm syndrome
I still cannot reconcile that. Can’t wrap my head around it. Maybe unknown information will come out to clarify that.
“In his own words two weeks ago, RFK Jr. admitted, “if he ran as an independent, he would hurt Trump more than Biden,””
He claimed. That is not the same thing as admitted. Not even close.
Regardless of how we think about who RFK jr will hurt most, we all better hope it’s not Trump, not by very much at all anyway, or else combined with all the cheating the Demofascists will do, Trump won’t have a chance.
Unless RFK Jr. can get on the ballot in all 50 states, he’s not going to hurt anyone!
RFK jr to speak at the Conservative Political Action Conference, (CPAC) later this month. Another power move by the corrupt GOPe.
Given the choice, Kennedy would rather see the current destructive policies and events continue under Biden or his next approved installment, rather than PT.
Yeah, Kennedy really cares about the country and middle class! (sarc)
Another strike against Charlie Kirk.
That’s Matt Schlapp, not Charlie Kirk.
Touché. I stand corrected
You don’t want to be touched by Matt Schfap!
whatever
I picture a really good public hallway conversation between Junior and Steve Bannon.
(Junior is my idea for what PDJT could call him.)
I noticed quite a few “Vote Independent” signs today
This female is voting Trump and only Trump. They can put him in prison and take him off the ballot…I will vote for him via write in. To hell with anyone else.
same here……
Me as well.
By this time next year our economy could be in shambles and the crisis in the Middle East will not be abated in any way.
With all that chaos people won’t turn to a slick haired, snake oil salesman from California like Gavin Gruesom, who I believe will be the Democrat nominee nor will they turn to a craggly voiced, ultra-liberal who is just camouflaging his extremism.
The American people will be looking for a man of strength and that will be Trump. Vote fraud is the only thing that will prevent him from being re-elected and everybody knows it.
seems like the entirety of so-called conservative media has jumped on the rfkjr bandwagon. How in the world people can embrace this guy given his lifelong positions on major issues is beyond me. He’s a super-liberal. He’s certainly not a centrist unless Mao is now centrist in the democrat party. Even sites like TGWP are pimping him.
The conservative right is always so very anxious to tongue-kiss these lefties. I have no idea why. We need to pulverize them, not embrace them….. Jiminy Cricket.
Best thing we can do is broadcast over and over what rfkjr and that hindu huckster are really up to….splitting votes away from Trump. I could see the hindu teaming-up with kennedy.
Well , there’s a glue , I mean clue …’Conservative “ Foxers are now the canaries in the coal mine for the next uniparty play ( not hard to figure -low $$$ whores bought by the anti Trump Uniparty pimps …)
You mean neverTrumper media.
Please don’t call those phonies conservative. Thank you.
Has anyone noticed that all these vote splitters have picked apart 47’s 47 Agenda and focus on a few aspects of it? Or is it just me being cynical?
Good point, they know Trump’s agenda is a winner, and they want to mouth it even though it’s just words to them. See: Meatball.
I’m still not convinced.
I think there are a lot of tree-hugging loony toon leftist slackers out there who are disenchanted with the democrat party in general and Dopey Joe in particular who would NEVER vote for Trump and would be wooed by Bobby, Jr. and his idealistic balloon juice. . . . . I’m thinking Bernie Bot types and their ilk.
Biden’s handlers have screwed up so badly with policy that I don’t see anyone supporting a candidate who doesn’t seriously commit to closing the border & fixing the economy which Bobby, Jr. can’t convincingly pull off . . . . . . . . even with his not very bright target audience.
The question will be whether Junior The Shiny Thing shines more brightly for NeverTrumpers and normie Independents than PDJT.
I think definitely so for a while for the normies (but hopefully not in the end). The neverTrumpers will embrace Junior like a drowning man.
That’s why an early education campaign on Junior’s actual policy beliefs is critical. Thanks to Sundance for getting us lined up at the gate now.
My vote will go to Trump and that will not change, but will an election decide who becomes our next President? With the test of the Emergency Broadcast System last week we are getting prepped for some form of national emergency, remember these are the same people that planted an explosive device alongside the capitol on J6.
What could be next????
“The best thing anyone can do to disrupt his effort is simply to share his leftist, big government, policy proposals.”
It’s not going to be easy to convince a lot of people that RFK jr. is part of the deep state when he comes across as the most anti-deep state candidate of them all … … … except for Trump, of course
We need another plan or we will sink our own ship.
