A few notable quotes from the article follow:
“A Super Pac affiliated with Robert F Kennedy Jr, the anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist running for president as a Democrat, owes half its cash to a longtime Republican mega-donor and Trump backer, according to campaign finance reports filed on Monday.”
… and further…
“Kennedy’s campaign attracted a considerable amount of support from Republican donors in the weeks since he announced his run in April. A political watchdog found that Kennedy has a “long history” of antisemitism, racism and xenophobia.”
I’ve never actually seen a democrat or true independent who supports Kennedy. The only people treating him as anything other than a joke are republicans.
The problem isn’t people paying attention, it’s the mass number of people who know literally nothing about current political events who then try to figure it out while standing in line at the polls.
It’s a small subset of a subset of a subset, but it can be enough to top the balance when all the other electoral shenanigans are factored in as well.
The people not really paying attention, but still wanting to vote democratic, will just vote for Biden. The idiots who claim to be left leaning but hate Biden more than Trump are more likely to vote for Trump than Kennedy, but some might support him…
But not when the only news that pretends that Kennedy is a viable candidate is Fox.
