Helped kill 83 foreign kids in American Samoa by denying them measles vaccines. Thinks the Deep State CIA is assassinating his relatives. Says guns are not the problem in gun violence. Claims vaccines cause autism. Sounds like he's going to appeal to Trump supporters a lot more than he will appeal to Biden supporters. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know that right wingers are hoping he will draw from the left by attracting those who think Biden is too old. I think the reality is that Trump supporters have a large number of crazies among them and that RFK is their kind of people. Plus he will give those true conservatives who can't bring themselves to vote for a D POTUS another place to go. Edited March 27 by gowlerk 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once again SC has shown trump loving posters here that they miss the essence of conservative thinking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing in that says they are crapping their pants. If Trump says that we cannot let Iran invade Israel, does that mean Iran is making Trump crap his pants? You say that we cannot let open borders stand. Does that mean Mexicans make you crap your pants? Do you have any concept of what a "fact" is? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you don’t think the prospect of a second Trump, in the minds of Democrats, rises to the level of pants crapping you are not as bright as I gave you credit.

I mean, everybody should have some level of worry about RFK being able to get any votes and the prospect of a second Trump presidency. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
