Anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is expected to announce Monday that he will drop his Democratic bid for president and run as an independent or third-party candidate, adding a new wrinkle to a 2024 race currently heading toward a rematch between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump.
Kennedy’s campaign has teased the announcement in the days leading up to a Monday afternoon speech in Philadelphia. In a recent video, Kennedy said there is corruption “in the leadership of both political parties” and said he wants to “rewrite the assumptions and change the habits of American politics.”
The video came shortly after Mediaite reported he planned to launch an independent bid.
So you are mistrustful of him because you don’t think hes qualified to be president. That is a reasonable rationale for distrust.
No one always knows what they are doing, that is part of being an imperfect human. That he admits it to some degree just means he is being honest about his skills and abilities and is willing to learn.
Anyway you are entitled to think someone is not qualified for president if you want. However, that does not disqualify that he is at least trying to do exactly what you think should be done.
He’s surrounding himself with people so fundamentally untrustworthy that it absolutely needs to be called out no matter what he says his goals are
So why should I trust you when you call someone untrustworthy? You keep calling people names and that doesn’t exactly lead me to trust you. Trust is in the eye of the beholder and your cussing doesn’t exactly lead me to trust your viewpoint.
Objectively Yang and everyone on the list of 20+ notable member are more trustable to the general public than you simply because they are important enough to be mentioned by a Wikipedia entry. There are 14 democrats and 13 republicans listed on the notable member chart.
You don’t have to trust everyone in an organization to trust that organization. I would rather support an organization that might be lying over 2 organizations that I know are lying.
Anyway, I understand your viewpoint and can respect it even if I happen to see it differently. Thanks for explaining your view.
