With the exception of RFK, Jr., I never want to have to listen to anyone in the Kennedy family ever again.
She lost me with the exception

It’s worse than that.

Because you know, RFK Jr introduces himself as Bob Smith. Only after you get to know him and he swears you to secrecy does he tell you what his real name is.

You're saying you don't think a man of his intellect wouldn't be just as well known if he wasn't RFK's son?
What are you, mad?

Saw RFK jr on the news last night. His tanned face looks like he gets too much sun. That cannot be healthy.
Other than that I doubt if he is an optimal
choice for the considered portfolio. His appointment could result in no end of distraction for Trump. -

My feed is full of “Kennedy-Warren Clash” posts. It keeps making me think of this apartment building in DC https://kennedywarren.com/

When you hear ‘my uncle’ a hundred times in a row it makes you realize what a strange word ‘uncle’ is.
His gravelly voice doesn’t help.

Of course. Bought and paid for. Who do you think is orchestrating the push-back?

Despite the fact that he’s a nanny state leftist he really fits in with maga.
A key part of maga is projection. Invent stories about election theft as cover to try to steal an election. Bogus lawfare claims to justify lawfare at scale.
He claims big politicians are harming children for money. Meanwhile his policies would kill thousands and he disclosed a huge financial stake in an antivaxx lawsuit.

Before he was bought out by Trump, most normal conservatives (as opposed to whacky conspiracy theorists) admitted he was crazy. Now, apparently he's something else.

But what about the SAD? Don’t you want that fixed Jon?
Sure. But I’m reminded of what the republicans (rightly) said to GOP primary voters about Ron Paul 20 years ago.
All the stuff that he’s says that you like? Reducing the size of government, paying off the debt, balancing the budget, etc. he can’t do that without big majorities in congress.
All the scary shit he says? Pulling back US troops from everywhere and weakening our defense posture? He can do that day one.
Same with RFK Jr. He’s mostly powerless to change big food and beverage. But he can fuck with vaccines and therapeutics at will.

You could always listen to the confirmation hearings and come to a conclusion based on your own observations, rather than sound bites from podcasts, carefully culled from his entire history, and without context. I'm really not worried about him.

No, many of us still think he’s nuts and possibly dangerous. I will say that his stuff about the food dyes and some of the preservatives deserve a serious conversation. I mean, why the heck are they using dyes in ibuprofen, Benadryl, etc?

It would be strange to consider the power of an influential public figure and their messaging to be impotent. But to the point of being authoritarian in controlling what people eat, he has explicitly denied that that is his goal. Something about how, if people want their McDonalds, they should have their McDonalds.

It’s an easy denial because he can’t takeaway their McDonald’s.

I’ve agreed with you in the past that cultural change among red state America vis a vis their atrocious diet would be a good thing. Rogan types are probably better vectors for that than a roided up old drug dealer. Hard to imagine Trump becoming a role model for being svelte and eating well.

@jon-nyc And neither will he take away their vaccines, as much fun as deploying that rhetoric may be. I know your source of truth will be soundbites from podcasts, and I know you'll never listen to his confirmation hearings, so there you will stay.
