MAGA Turns on Joe Rogan as He Endorses RFK Jr. and Not Trump
Right-wingers on X are not impressed that the popular podcaster is throwing his weight behind RFK Jr.
You're viewing a single thread.
Bizarre. I thought RFK Jr was being bank rolled by a repub to split the vote on the dem side. Last poll has him at 6% in Michigan. Remember, split votes gave MI to Trump in 2016, assuming the Stein and Harambe votes would’ve been Hillary instead.
RFK is a conspiracy nut too. Strange guy. I’ve never listened to Rogan. But if this splits the vote the other way, great.
To be fair, if my uncle and dad were murdered by the CIA I'd be a conspiracy nut too. Although Republicans will probably regret elevating him now, as he seems to be peeling more people off Trump than democrats.
He’s not peeling any democrats off. Only libertarians and conservative conspiracy theorists. Aka Rogan fans. The idea that dems would just vote for a Kennedy is exactly the kind of strategy I expect from trump and his ilk.
I thought the idea was that his policies on the environment and affordable home ownership look good to liberal voters at first glance.
If anyone gets passed the brain worms and the crazy conspiracies then maybe he’s earned it. But I doubt there’s any statistical chance he’s going to negatively impact the dem ticket.
And his name.
ETA: That's the thought process, not how I feel. Last year there were literally conservatives saying "the left will vote for a Kennedy"
I agree for the most part, but he's also influential to dudebros, who could also be convinced to vote blue for drug legalization.
The problem being those dude bros are too caught up in toxic masculinity and inceldom to ever be able to vote for a dem.
He is a staunch anti vaxx guy.
assuming the Stein and Harambe votes would’ve been Hillary instead.
Ah, yes, because Stein and Harambe had very similar platforms to Hillary.
Maybe, maybe not. Had a couple friends who were Tulsi fans when she was running that went full bore irate at the two part system after Hillary was selected. Bernie people as well. Felt the DNC forced Hillary down our throats and then went and voted Stein out of spite. Or didn’t vote. Moderates who didn’t want either didn’t vote.
I don’t think it had anything to do with platform, more spite than anything.
