In reply to the discussion: Democrats Shouldn't Fear RFK Jr. [View all]ALBliberal

Switching to RFKjr. And I find it encouraging if former Trump voters switch to RFKjr. Yes he probably was and maybe still is MAGA. But hes fundraising for RFKjr on FB and recently went to meet him. Again, if people like him and his family switch from Trump to RFKjr it helps us. And of course I know Texas wont go for Biden.
I find him supporting RFKjr appalling. I knew he was a Trump supporter which is just as horrible.

That is not really true. Clinton won in 92 thanks to Ross Perot. He was a third party candidate.

And it has been debunked time and time again that Perot propelled Clinton to win.

Kennedy will not cause us to lose. In fact the rumors are that he will be a unity VP for Trump.
