Every time I gently send the warning signal about Donald Trump Jr, I get blasted with hate mail that essentially says Trump Jr must not be criticized because he is the heir apparent to the MAGA empire – or something similar. The anger generally comes from the grifting enterprises who make money from Donald Trump’s political gravity.
To those voices, let me be as clear as I can be. If you want me to hide the reality of how insanely naive Donald Trump Jr is about politics, then write him letters telling him to shut up, and don’t waste your typeset energy on me. As long as Donald Trump Jr continues doing and saying stupid stuff because he believes he is politically smart (insert Fredo comparison here), I am going to continue sending warning flares about his naiveté.
I have been gentle and considerate of the ego and familial relationships.
I have avoided direct criticism around his gullibility taking Natalia Vladimirovna Veselnitskaya into Trump Tower in 2016 as part of the Fusion GPS operation to frame the Trump-Russia narrative. I have avoided open criticism of his gullibility with Peter Thiel, Palantir Technologies (who, by the way, just had their CEO endorse Kamala Harris) and the JD Vance promotion.
I was kind and diplomatic in my attempts to point out that Donald “Fredo” Trump Jr, might just not possess the correct assembly of brain matter needed to see through counterintelligence operations. After all, there is a reason why Eric was picked to run the Trump organization. However, if those voices are going to paint me into a corner with stuff like this:…
… Then you are going to discover, I have no more tongue to bite.
Putting RFK Jr in any position inside the IC network is akin to giving Mary McCord and Andrew Weissman control of President Donald Trump’s teleprompter. The Intelligence Community would relish, absolutely relish the opportunity to work with RFK Jr as the CIA director.
Amaryllis Fox is a former CIA undercover officer who transitioned into the political realm as the campaign manager for Robert F. Kennedy Jr after she met his son, Robert F Kennedy III at the ‘Burning Man’ event. Do you remember the guy who leaked the recording of Donald Trump and RFK Jr speaking just before the RNC Convention? Yeah, that was RFK III who leaked it (Amaryllis’s husband).
As the story is being told, Donald “Fredo” Trump Jr, is now negotiating the terms and conditions for the RFK JR endorsement of his father, possibly later this week. If Fredo’s commentary about putting RFK Jr in charge of the CIA is accurate, and given the fact Fredo is part of the official transition team, and given the fact that Fredo was a big impetus for the JD Vance selection, and given the fact that everyone in the close orbit of Donald Trump keeps saying that Fredo wants to make federal politics his life and career after Dad; well, you can see where this is going.
I support Donald Trump because there is no alternative – no other viable option. It’s the same reason I supported him in 2015 and every moment from then through now. I have never regretted my support of Donald Trump, ever, not for a moment.
However, that said, I do not support anything that undermines the likelihood of success.
I do not care if Alex Jones or anyone else is the advocate in support of this stupid idea.
There is no way that Robert F Kennedy Jr should have any significant role in the Trump administration outside of Health and Human Services Director or Food and Drug Commissioner…. and even that is a stretch considering that RFK JR might proclaim firearms as a national health crisis and institute regulations.

You nailed that one Sundance. He is a blooming idiot putting Kennedy redo over CIA
This isn’t definite!
Outstanding as usual Sundance. I agree with your assessment 100%.
MAGA
Ambassador to Ireland.
Wow. That was subtle.
Its a brilliant idea!
perfect…..
Doesn’t Ireland have enough trouble already ?!?!?!
LOL!
Yes, they don’t need any more of that . . . thank you very much! As a matter of fact, the Protestants and the Catholics have been seen to be uniting against a common enemy, the British “New World Order” types that have been injecting chaos and destruction into their fair land for generations.
When you think about it (it occurred to me, recently, as I watched news of the old enemies joining together and I am very keen to ponder, as many of our family’s people were there, from both sides) . . . what if it has really been all along that the British “New World Order” people from the old days who engendered and ramped up the strife in order to take over the riches of Eire? The British did that in other places they aimed to put into the Empire, why not the people right there? IMHO, the British NWO of the 18th and 19th century were the spiritual parents of our present-day NWO, striving to absorb the wealth and the land of countries not able to resist their predations. Serbia, for example. What they did to Serbia, they would like very much to do to Russia. And so forth. Libya – “the Libyan model”.
With the manifold talents of the CIA personnel over the years along with others from the US State Department, for example.
So please do not put RFK, Jr., anywhere NEAR any levers of power in the Trump #47 administration – whether in the CIA or as Ambassador to Ireland or Federal Dogcatcher for the National Institutes of Health . . . he has all the qualities of a tool.
Thank you again, Sundance!
Ambassador to Martha’s Vineyard.
Chancellor of Chappaquiddic Community College.
Send him to Diego Garcia?
Djibouti.
Ambassador to Guam. (He can keep it from tipping over).
Ukraine
Spot on Sundance.
Sundance
I totally agree. There is something wrong with RFK, do not like him at all
Tea
Could be that dead worm he has in his brain!!!
I spent 6-8 hours, early on listening to Jr. interviews, and yes I felt “something was off” but couldn’t put my finger on it for a long time.
Many here were noting, other than the Vax, and his views on CIA, in all other policy areas, he remains a looney leftie.
Even his view on Ukraine is the common to the leftist base anti-war position, so not really MAGA at all.
Just recently, it “clicked”; we have MANY former Dems and leftists in our MAGA movement.
Neil Oliver, Tucker Carlson, Dr. Malone, Dr. Naomi Wolfe, Jimmy Dore, Dr. Drew, etc. and most have talked about their conversion from “woke” to “awakened”.
They all describe a process of overcoming ‘Denial’ and often they say it was ONE THING, initially which was the “bridge too far” the “straw that” which caused them to wake up.
For many, it was the plandemic, for others the stolen election, for some the mutilation of children,…but they all say the same thing.
That once they woke up, and realised the Gummint, MSM, etc. were lieing to them, they thought “What ELSE are they lieing to me about?”
Hence, while it started with say, Covid it quickly extended to reevaluating their views on Ukraine, Trans foolishness, Climate Change, Gun Control, Abortion etc. as the walls if denial come tumbling down, and the splinters fall away from their eyes.
And thereun lies the problem (the “tell”?) with Jr.
I have seen NO such re-evaluation of his leftist positions, which SHOULD have naturally occured as he went through the transition from “Woke” to “Awakened”.
“One you see the strings,…” he obviously has NEVER seen the strings, if he had his views on gun control would change, as Dr. Wolfe says hers have, his views on Climate change, etc. would have changed.
And they haven’t. And thats why we can say he has NOT experienced a genuine ‘conversion’.
Like so much today, ITS NOT REAL.
Perhaps as RFK Jr. grows older, and the clock is ticking, he decided to go all in and work for a cause dear to him, from a possition of power, independenly of which party gives him the opportunity.
The nature of the position he ultimately accepts will be a clue.
And you’re sure he will be offered a position?
Excellent observations!
The one elephant in the room that no one is talking about yet is RFK Jrs self-professed sex addiction based on his diary that surfaced — not to mention his recovery (I assume) from his drug addiction and the unmentionable act of his wife hanging herself in their barn.
There is something drastically off emotionally about this guy.
By the very nature of his various emotional issues, he is going to drag this administration down. He will grab the limelight and it will not be in a good way.
He is a Kennedy, the defects are in his genes!
He so wants to come across as smart. He reminds me of Sean Hannity.
You are brilliant ElGato!
AGREED RE FREDO AND RE RFK JR FOR CIA WHICH I THINK IS FAKE RUMOR COUNTER PROGRAMMING.
BUT I LIKE RFK JR FOR HHS TO OVERSEE BIG PHARMA. HE KNOWS THE LANDSCAPE WELL. COULD SAVE MONEY FOR TAXPAYERS.
I would rather keep someone well away from a position with any authority to declare gun ownership as an actionable public health crisis.
He may present as being against big harma with respect to their vaccinations, but do not forget he still is very much a leftist and a Kennedy.
And he is lacking good judgement as evidenced by his choice of female companionship. JMHO
I think ya’ll are being just a little harsh to Jr. Maybe he is just trying to persuade some democrats to cross over. And as far as Kimberly goes, take a good look at some older pictures of Ivana. There is a slight resemblance of Kimberly to her. IMHO. : )
Maybe when the time came to select, it wouldn’t ever truly happen. It was all just talk to get votes.
The only problem with giving someone the rope is, they eventually hang you, with it!
Dixie, I think you’re meaning Don Jr, while they’re speaking of Bobby.
It’s very confusing when commenters use just ‘Jr’ speaking of one or the other, when Sundance is addressing both of the two Juniors in this post’s subject.
“Big Harma”
I’m stealing that!
Feel free to share, I have no claim to originating it.
Hopefully he’s not endorsing RFK Jr for C-I-A because” there’s something in it for me”…
HaHa!
Another possible reason:
‘He’s smart…and he wants respect’
Who better to dig for JFK and RFK killing info.
Thank you Sundance! I have received the angry replies here in the CTH community as well. There is still a lot of denial and pretending going on.
I don’t know what Jr’s IQ is but I can say with certainty that he has the wisdom of a herd of sheep. Over and over again he demonstrates to the world, through his words and his actions, that he is an exceedingly foolish man-child. Touting RFK Jr for CIA Director just might be the dumbest thing he’s ever done-and that’s saying something!
“There is still a lot of denial and pretending going on.”
In a nutshell. I feel like we need Jack Nicholson to scream in some faces.
I’m not a huge fan of Jr. and I think the Fredo analogy is apt. Donald Trump Jr. is not his father, he has no acumen for the job.
But, how many others were elected President, that were NOT?
agree wholeheartedly.
He’s a leftist kook straight up. So use him and if he steps outa line give him the canoe ride on the lake or take him to the train station.. He’s an idiot if you ask me and irredemeable liberal nutcase. But heck draw him in close and warn him once and only once. Give him no chance to do harm. Instead get him to harm his own… General Sun Tzu…….
No
At least 75 million other Americans would be a better choice
Anyone who dumps their wife and hooks up with the ex-wife of Gavin Newsome is not too smart in my book
Your statement Gives new meaning to the useful idiot commentary and keeping your enemies close R/t, DJT, Jr. His decisions n choice to marry don’t add up to a sustainable IQ
Actually he is the one who got dumped. Vanessa initiated the divorce, and no he was nit seeing Kimberly at the time of the divorce. You don’t have to like him to speak the truth.
Say what you will but Vanessa must have had a serious reason. There are 5 children involved.
She didn’t want Trump Sr running for president as republican no less, as it made her an outcast from NYC social circles. And Don Jr supported his father and was public about it. Plus Don Jr cheated on her a few times.
IIRC, I think Vanessa freaked out about the white powder being sent to them. She couldn’t take the spotlight and life in the fish bowl and the endless attacks.
Right. I agree with you.
I have also read those facts.
There are two sides to a story. Vanessa is included in everything that the Trump family does.
Give it up for the late Great John Cazale!
The Godfather I & II never get old. Cazale’s portrayal as Fredo Corleone is the most dynamic acting within the franchise.
You are 100% correct, Sundance. ONE HUNDRED PERCENT. Don and his girlfriend are, in my opinion, well meaning, but for some reason don’t get it.
RFK Jr is a Dem, and believes in gun grabbing and global warming, just for starters. Give him some title and let him poke holes in the monstrosity called Big Pharma.
CIA Director? Absolutely NOT!
Put him in charge of some federal agency that oversees chemical addictions…and no where near my second amendment.
I hear he has some insight into chemicals.
OUCH!!!
And true….
RFK Jr. shoudn’t have any position other than pursuant to his professional experience representing victims of forced vaccination, Big Pharma malpractices, WHO corruption and overreach, Bill Gates dirty vaccine business, gain-of-function feeding frenzy research, environment protections, etc.
Somebody has to say it out loud. It is good Sundance has the personal courage to say it.
As I remember in Jan. or Feb., Sundance in his blog did suggest putting RFK, Jr in as CIA director among other people he was suggesting be part of Trump’s cabinet.
Yes, I am curious. How do you reconcile that?
I grew to dislike him as the “author” of 5 fundraising emails a day going back to 2020, pitching all kinds of swag. He’s foul mouthed and the mate of Newsom’s ex wife. I think he’s an opportunist and dad needs to take his keys.
Agreed, particularly on the firearms –> health care emergency, although I figured it would be “climate change is a healthcare emergency” first and “we must lockdown forever”.
That being said… any CIA Director is going to be surrounded by operatives. TBH, I think it’s not really a position that can ever even do anything positive. Seems to me like it’s just a pageant crown, and follows the orders of whoever the nasty people in the depths of the organization really are. I could be wrong. But I haven’t seen any evidence to the contrary.
But what if… just what if… you put someone in there who has a legit personal gripe with the agency? Anyone is going to be surrounded by operatives, and probably whoever gets put in there will have some in-law co-opted and married off, etc. That’s just standard OP, right?
But maybe… and I’m being overly optimistic which is against my nature… probably out of desperation… but what if you throw a guy in there who’s had a personal vendetta against that agency since he was a child?
I don’t even know if RFK fits that description. I’m just guessing. But a lot of people want to rein in and/or shut down the organization. But a lot of people will also cower in fear once the threats start coming in.
Maybe only one type of person could withstand that. One that has a lifetime of personal righteous anger directed at them.
I’m probably wrong.
how about defunding the cia? period.
see: “a lot of people want to rein in and/or shut down the organization. But a lot of people will also cower in fear once the threats start coming in.“
Pussy whipped by bimbo Kimberly G. who is a deep mole, and plans to cash in on a tell all book.
I’ll chalk up this “news” to pre-Labor Day looniness.
My first thought to this rumor was ugh and no way. The Kennedy clan will never turn their backs to their elite New England roots.
Trouble is that Eric is needed to run a business.
What would you do with Jr? Can’t quite kick him out. Maybe a Moe Greene character can kick some sense into him.
Capisce?
So far Trump has been a very unique character. I think Perot had the right ideas but lacked the internal fortitude of DJT and he folded when the IC got to him. Sure, he surely doesn’t come through slick, like a politician, but that’s what good about him.
Oh well, Ambassador to Ireland would be good for RFK Jr.
CIA? No Way In He##
What would you do with Jr?
Advise him to run for Congress.
Correction (and I hate to correct Sundance):
former CIA should always be written as “former” CIA.
Carry on.
We need to win in November and the RFK2 endorsement will definitely make it possible. Without the endorsement it’s more than likely that President Trump will lose and possibly spend the rest of his life in federal prison at the behest of a Jamaican immigrant judge in Washington DC!
I don’t care what position RFK2 is promised as long as President Trump wins! That’s what Don Jr is dealing with and most folks here miss! If RFK2 turns into a backstabber, as unlikely as that is, he can be fired. Give him a chance to prove himself at the CIA, FDA or CDC. I think he’s sincere.
How much worse would he be than Mike Pompeo, Gina Haspel, Bill Barr, Chris Wray, James Comey or Jeff Sessions?
I agree with you! He’s not my favorite, but how pivotal would that be to get his backing. This could be a complete turning point in the election. Honestly, I can’t imagine RFK being a huge fan of the CIA, given all the history there.
That’s an assuming all his supporters will jump to Trump. I don’t think that’s likely. Lots of Never Trumpers, Libertarians, and anti-vaxxers among his supporters.
Many traditional democrat older voters aren’t happy with the current iteration of the Democrat Party . Yet vitue signaling reigns supreme…what to do, what to do. An endorsment by RFK Jr. gives them “permission” to vote Republican without becoming a horrible person or a bigot.
I might have just flagged you. Did not mean to.
–“Without the endorsement it’s more than likely that President Trump will lose and possibly spend the rest of his life in federal prison at the behest of a Jamaican immigrant judge in Washington DC!”–
Me thunks you’re reaching just a wee bit here and entering the status of hyperbole, Joe.
–“How much worse would he be than Mike Pompeo, Gina Haspel, Bill Barr, Chris Wray, James Comey or Jeff Sessions?”–
That’s a very low ‘Barr’ you’ve set for a position that is important to cleaning the swamp stables. <grins>
President Trump is going to do whatever gets him in the White House next January. If that means RFK2 is the new CIA Director then I’m good with it!
Cart before the horse?
Nepotism is generally not a good idea.
For one thing, it’s hard to fire them.
I still can’t figure out why Eric Trump did this.
Within the past 4 months, he was at the microphone and Don Jr. was coming onto the stage.
Eric asked the audience to show which of the two was their favorite Trump son.
The clapping was way more for Don Jr.
That told me we have an electorate who need a severe amount of education.
I know so many Republican voters who don’t have a clue what’s going on.
That’s bc Eric has a lower profile than Don Jr. Eric has to work for a living. Don Jr + Kimberley love hanging out with celebrities and being on the social scene. Don Jr also tweets a lot and has a podcast.
🎯
Honestly, I don’t give a hoot where they stick him honestly, I just want to win. Deal with the fall out later. You all are all into governing, that is phase II. Kennedy endorsement is huge, discount it if you must, but it will instantly dampen the DNC show, and unless you tell me there are going to be bombs dropping from Russia (a strong possibility) to remove Harris from the headlines, I’ll take the RFK endorsement as a close second.
Keep these discussions private, make a phone call, but to punch down at Vance or RFK is not a winning tactic, sorry. Love Sundance, but can we pls learn to win. Maybe we need to read “art of war”
#war
Exactly! I couldn’t have said it better myself.
Absolutely! We have people here willing to throw away the “GOOD” in hopes of finding the “PERFECT!”
We need to win! Whatever the cost is doesn’t matter. President Kamala Harris for the next eight years will be a lot uglier than giving RFK2 a job!!!
Rejecting RFK Jr is not throwing away the good in pursuit of perfect, RGK Jr is not “good.” He’s not “adequate” or “average.” He’s not even “kind of bad.” He’s a train wreck. He’s a “disaster movie” bigger than “Towering Inferno” and “Airport” put together. We certainly can reject “disastrous” in favor of “something better.”
What percentage of Kennedy supporters are never-Trumpers, anti-vaxxers (who blame Trump for operation warpspeed), and old school Demons hanging onto the Camelot fairytale?
Then, how many of those voters that make up his 4% support will actually vote for Trump just because of a Kennedy endorsement?
If you are voting for someone based off of an endorsement by another politician you are a low information voter with no critical thinking skills.
I bet most of his 4% of supporters decide not to vote if he endorces Trump. The trade off for those votes versus a Kennedy in a critical position isn’t worth it. You’re overplaying the pull his endorsement will have over his voters.
If he endorses Harris that would help her out immensely. Endorsing Trump doesn’t convince me his voters follow. I would ask for his endorsement but not promise him anything in return.
Rasmussen polling (who is the only polling agency who got 2016 right) doesn’t have Kennedy as a real factor hurting Trump. Harris’s honeymoon is waning and after the debate she’ll probably end up in the dustbin of history where she belongs. The more people see her and Walz the worse it gets for them.
.
Yes.
I can hear her ad now about how these two men had to align because she is so much ahead of each of them and that this is a desperation move.
Better that both PDJT and RFK, Jr. mount eligibility disqualification positions in the interest of protecting our Constitution — countering the ridiculous ‘save our democracy’ drivel . . .
I’m with you,SD.
PDJT’s biggest weakness is his children. In that he’s very much like all parents.
It’s unfortunate that he (& thus we) has to learn the lesson that loving his children doesn’t qualify them for anything except being his beloved children.
There’s far too much at stake for Fredo or RFK Jr to be anywhere in PDJT’s political orbit. I’m praying he can love Fredo from a professional distance.
How to destroy your administration before it even begins………
Kennedy to CIA or AG sounds like a McConnell move.
Who knows, last time we had the son in law maybe this time it’s the son?
Or maybe just maybe, PT is his one worst enemy and truly doesn’t understand the 4th branch of government?
If Kennedy is made AG or CIA Director it would go down as the single reason for the survival of the DS and nothing changes.
So, tell us what a President Kamala Harris for the next eight years will do for the survival of the deep state?
Appointments aren’t made until after an inauguration.
“To those voices, let me be as clear as I can be. If you want me to hide the reality of how insanely naive Donald Trump Jr is about politics, then write him letters telling him to shut up, and don’t waste your typeset energy on me.”
I would conclude that Donald Trump Jr. is insanely naive if I were to find out that he actually urged his father to not choose JD Vance as his running mate AND he is now advising his father to tell RFK Jr. to take any endorsement and shove it.
Maybe it’s time for you to go support the professionally republican websites.
Sundance, regardless how we feel, now is not the time to splinter us. We all respect your analysis immensely and share your wits with others.
I’m busting my ass trying to get people focused on Clyburn, AME church and ballot counters because that’s what matters.
respect
I respectfully disagree. Sundance is providing wise analysis based up the deepest level of investigation I’ve ever seen. His analysis turns out to be right approximately 99% of the time.
You have the right to disagree-loudly. Give your reasons why. You don’t have to listen to Sundance. You can even bet money against his predictions but I promise you’ll go broke if you do.
What you don’t have the right to do is to tell Sundance that he can’t share his analysis because it “splinters” us or “causes division” or some other ridiculous UniParty nonsense. That’s the mindset we are fighting against.
I support Donald J. Trump.
Jr. is in it for himself.
Maybe, Don Jr doesn’t want his father to spend the next 10 years in Federal Prison at the direction of a Jamaican Federal Judge in Washington DC?
Do you think that’s why he wants the RFK2 endorsement!
What would Junior K have to do with that?
CIA does not need a new director, It needs to go away forever.
UncleGrumpy: Keep the black helicopters. They could be useful.
<chuckles>
Don Jr has some issues…
I often wonder about that rapid speaking…
Anyway, let’s hope someone will give him a slap upside the head to knock some sense into him with regard to RFK Jr’s eventual position – which should NOT be anywhere near CIA. Perhaps he could head up a commission to revamp the childhood vaccine schedule such that kids are not getting 5,000 shots the minute they pop into the world!
My favorite line about Fredo: “He was banging cocktail waitresses two at a time! Players couldn’t get a drink at the table!”
Don Jr. has always struck me as a caffeine-driven fast-talking loose cannon. His judgement about any topic of political significance is automatically open to question — simply because he is so frenetic so much of the time, he could not have taken the time needed to examine the important judgement calls in the kind of depth which is often required. Assuming PDJT becomes President again, what is to be done with Don Jr.?
Sundance –
What’s your take on Nicole Shanahan?
She’s not giving me the greatest vibes – she’s an attorney from silicon valley – she’s the ex of silicon valley Sergey Brin (co-founder of Google) – and she supposedly approached Bobby the K and asked to be his running mate.
If what you say is true–and I have no objective reasons to doubt you–then does not some of the responsibility for this if it happens fall on Trump for making another poor personnel decision? Don’t get me wrong, I’m voting for Trump no matter what. But I’ve never been one to deify the man as if he had no areas of weakness, no blind spots.
Nailed it Sundance for me with:
“After all, there is a reason why Eric was picked to run the Trump organization.”
I too don’t want RFK Jr in Intel, Nicole Shanahan pretty much indicated HHS, which would be fine, as would FDA…
You have to blame Trump. He has to know Don Jr. is a moron. Send him on a hunting expedition for like the next 4 years.
No, I don’t have to blame Trump, nor do I think Don Jr. is a moron–just politically immature and caught up in the lime light of being on the national stage.
I agree wholeheartedly Sundance! Thank you very much for shedding the light of truth at this intense moment in time.
It would be wonderful if a certain Lady noticed this also and shared with a certain Gentleman, while dining and dancing at a family dinner.
Just sayin’, pillow talk and all that jazz does come in handy at time.
Masterclass in acting.
Both Trump and RFK Jr. in AZ on Friday where Kennedy will announce.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/08/breaking-update-robert-f-kennedy-jr-will-address/
Thank you, Sundance!
Junior is no Senior.
Fredo’s a bit harsh. Maybe just “Junior”, with all that implies.
Eric is a little closer to the Big Tree here, as acorns go.
And it appears RFKJ will be endorsing PDJT on Friday, free and clear. And that ain’t no IC psyop.
Sure, promise RFK the CIA directorship.
But on Trump Day One, order troops and armor to block the road to Langley, and reduce CIA directorship to overseeing CIA Headquarters janitorial and maintenance staff.
Wasn’t he also the one (of many) who destroyed the Pebble Mine up in Alaska? (Buying into almost completely bogus allegations of harm to salmon.)
Before his pet issue was vaccines or the IC, he was a global warming fanatic. He got far less traction with that and doesn’t focus on it as much anymore.
