On Friday, another potential long shot Democratic hopeful, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., appeared at the New Hampshire National Politics Institute for their "Politics and Eggs" speaker series, an event that historically draws notable political figures, including potential presidential hopefuls.

Kennedy, an activist, attorney and self-described "lifelong Democrat" and son of one of America's most famous families, has in recent years stirred controversy for his support of conspiracies about the COVID-19 vaccines, garnering support from some unlikely bedfellows on the right.

At Friday's event, Kennedy said, "I'm thinking about it," when asked about his 2024 aspirations, according to WMUR's Adam Sexton.


"RFK Jr. could jump into the Republican primary for president, and only DeSantis and Trump, I think, would do better," former Trump adviser Steve Bannon recently said on MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell's streaming program, Lindell TV.

Is he LGBTQIA2SWTF? Does he identify as African-American? Has he had a stroke? What exactly qualifies him for federal office?

He going to run against his cousin?

America’s #1 anti-vax kook…no thanks.

Proponent of the debunked “theory” (pre Covid) that vaccines cause autism.

 

[clarkgriswold]

He's an effing kook.

But - but - Camelot!

He's an effing kook.

You probably won’t get a comment on this guy for a few days from the “usual suspects” around here. A Kennedy…an anti-Vaxxer…Steve Bannon says something about him that could be construed as a compliment…”what am I to think”?

He does have an attractive wife. I'll give him that.
