    I don’t get the hype around RFK. For all of the virtue signaling democrats do about Trump and MAGA types, they sure seem eat that shit up with a quickness when their own special brand of unhinged geriatric starts telling them what they want to hear. It’s a bit embarrassing he’s even getting this much publicity

      He’s getting attention just so we see how much worse we could get than Biden. The worst thing the democratic party wants is a progressive that will take away from their financial interests. RFK is simply getting attention so we don’t give a good politician attention.

        I think we already realized that we hit rock bottom when we chose Biden as the nominee in 2020.

      You think Democrats are eating that shit up? All the hype I see around him seems to be coming from right wing types trying to use him to damage Biden.

        There was like one poll that showed him with 20% of Democrats saying they’d vote for him in 2024-- back when the only thing people knew about him was a his name, before it became well known how insane (and how obviously a far-right plant) he was. Oh, and even then that poll was an outlier, most polls before the hype began showed him with less than 10% support-- well below the crazification factor.
