The Atlantic has an article on RFK Jr. titled “The First MAGA Democrat” - which he is, right down to the pledges to clean up Washington and “end forever wars”, echoing Trump campaign promises.
His campaign manager, Dennis Kucinich resented the reporter’s mention of RFK Jr. as antivax, calling that term a ploy of “adherents” of Big Pharma. But when asked what vaccines RFK Jr. supports, Kucinich stammered and wouldn’t provide any examples.
Different strokes. He’s a pretty sharp comic, and he often has guests on his show I like. Most times, it just gets my blood pressure up.\ but on certain topics he has some keen insights.
I was five when he was assassinated. I was twelve when Bobby was. My dad was one of his delegates to the convention. I will never forget coming home from something and he was just sitting in the dark in the living room. Totally unlike him.
Bobby was a real American hero. This son of his is a disgrace to his legacy. Just a shame.
Just when you think RFK Jr. can’t stoop any lower, he confounds expectations. Now he’s suggesting that Covid-19 was formulated to spare Jews.
“COVID-19. There is an argument that it is ethnically targeted. COVID-19 attacks certain races disproportionately,” Kennedy said. “COVID-19 is targeted to attack Caucasians and black people. The people who are most immune are Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese.”
“We don’t know whether it was deliberately targeted or not but there are papers out there that show the racial or ethnic differential and impact,” Kennedy hedged."
What a slimeball.
Those who support him will find a way to overlook stuff like this, just as Trump’s supporters happily overlooked his abusive behavior and crazy-ass statements.
