He’s a CT nut so will appeal more to righties than Dems. What is CT? Conspiracy Theory.

You mean he doesn't trust the pharma industry. That was once a truly leftist position. Nowadays "left-wingers" want government goon squads going door to door checking vax passports and administering vaccines. This might be what Nogbad was talking about, but I doubt it.

Republican RFK? Have you ever listened to RFK Jr. on the economy? The guy is left of Biden. You should do research before you make such a moronic statement.
I like this move only because he has the best chance to get into the debates, probably since Perot. I'm sure the two party system will do everything they can to block him, but another voice on that debate stage would be worth it. I believe he was polling around 20 percent at best against Biden. Which means he stood no chance. If he can poll around 20 percent in the general election, sure he won't win(not that he has a chance anyway), but he will get into the debates.

He's also seen what the DNC will do to anyone........despite their polling and popularity.

He is actually further left than most Democrats, but he differs slightly on the "conspiracy theory" about vaccines, he thinks it's a profit making scam. That was once a leftist position. And then they call us a cult.

I actually think RFK running will help Joe more than Trump, because I think he has more appeal amongst Trump voters than Biden voters. I was listening to the radio this morning - some show I don't normally listen to - and a caller said the same thing. This will hurt Trump. That's great, but I don't want Biden to win either. Cost of living and quality of life is easily the worst of my adult life since he's been President.

It would have been rigged against him anyway if he stayed. Smart move.
Apparently he raised $11mil in a few hours

If he starts huring the GOP more than he hurts Biden he's going to lose his financial backers.

Do you honestly think CoL would have been better post covid (given a global recession) with someone else as president? What indicators of "quality of life" are you looking at/for?

I highly doubt his supporters would have voted for Biden so it really doesn't matter.... If the Democratic party was even half as devious as MAGA thinks they are this could have been the plan all along. Get RFK Jr. to appeal to the members of the GOP that are anti-vax/Southern border hawks. Trick the GOP into thinking that promoting RFK Jr. would cause Biden to lose some of the early primaries. And once enough Republicans started to like RFK Jr. have him announce a 3rd party run which appears to hurt Trump more than Biden. That would be some brilliantly devious political machinations. Unfortunately for the GOP, the Democratic party is too incompetent for such a ploy. Dems struggle to win even though the majority of the population supports most of their political positions. The Democratic party isn't sly enough to even cook up such a scheme let alone enact it. So it goes. The Kari Lake version of the Democratic Party is pretty scary, though.
