Good morning kids. Over a few months now, leading up to RFK Jr's announcement of withdrawing from the race and then his endorsement of Donald Ttrump, much has been written about what it means not just in terms of the election but what it says about a diehard Democrat and hardcore liberal (if not leftist) especially given his lineage and what the Kennedy name means to generational Democrat voters.
Had he just withdrawn, his Democrat Left bona fides would have remained intact. But to endorse Trump as well as serve as megaphone to present ideas and arguments that run contra to Democrat dogma and propaganda in their eyes is an unforgivable sin, to say the least. But does the name Kennedy still carry enough weight and momentum of history/mythology to crack the thick skulls of today's average Democrat?
Yet on top of this, remember that the Democrats have spent much time and effort in trying to sabotage the candidacies of two other notable independent candidates, Cornel West and. . . Jill Stein. And compared to RFK Jr., the both of them make him look like Barry Goldwater in comparison! It looks as if both West and Stein are going to remain on the ballots in the two crucial swing states of Michigan and Wisconsin respectively. Perhaps this is one reason why the Harris and Biden as well as the party openly cheered on the anti-Semites and now are going full Soviet takeover of the economy; to appease their insane base into not seeking alternatives like West or Stein, or RFK.
I cannot see Stein or West openly blasting the Democrat Party for attempting to derail their campaigns, and certainly not endorsing Trump. If the Democrat Party is not now openly bust-out anti-American and not just nod and a wink on the sly to fool the rubes in flyover country, it will be very soon now. And both Stein and West know it, so they are biding their time, Within our lifetimes, they may very well be mainstream Democrats.
As I've stated a few times, I cannot read RFK Jr's mind nor know what's in his heart, but to go against his own family's history and mythology to me is kind of a big deal, electorally in the short term and hopefully culturally in the long run.
And for whatever it's worth, Harris' old nemesis Tulsi Gabbard has now endorsed Trump.
But with all that said, the story that really underscores the state of play in this nation is not neessarily who endorsed Trump, but see who endorses Harris/Walz?
Hundreds of former aides who served under Republican lawmakers endorsed Democrat presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris, stating that “another four years” of a Trump administration would “hurt real, everyday” Americans.
In a letter that USA Today obtained, a group of more than 200 former aides for former President George W. Bush, Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT), and former Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) write that they are reuniting and joining with former staffers for former President George H.W. Bush to endorse Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D).
“We reunite today, joined by new George H.W. Bush alumni, to reinforce our 2020 statements and, for the first time, jointly declare that we’re voting for Vice President Kamala Harris and Gov. Tim Walz this November,” the letter states. . .
. . . Among other people who have also issued support for Harris is former Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger. Kinzinger spoke at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) and noted that the Republican Party was “no longer conservative.”
War-mongers, grifters and frauds the lot of them, who made fortunes out of pretending to oppose the dismantling of our constitutional order in service to creating a massive, centralized, oppressive all powerful bureaucracy.
Bitterly ironic that on the third anniversary of the Biden Afghanistan bug-out, which left 3,000 Americans butchered for no good reason in Afghanistan and Iraq, these same frauds who are itching to see more of our blood and treasure wasted in Ukraine, among other places have the gall to do this.
Trump warned them all that he was going to drain the swamp, and of course they were not going to allow that. In stark contrast was his paying respects at Arlington Cemetery to the 13 servicemen killed in an Islamikaze suicide bombing at the Kabul Airport. While Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants, Harris and Walz stayed away. and the usual suspects called Trump's genuine compassion a political stunt.
Warts, brian worms and all, I'll take RFK Jr. any day of the week over the likes of the human vermin from the Bush/Romney/McCain camps.
