I keep hearing Kennedy is a spoiler candidate, but I can’t imagine a single sane person, much less a Dem, supporting him. He’s a racist nut, and yes, that’s a technical term. theguardian.com/us-news/2023/a

@Gambit_1: It isn't the sane people that vote for people like him or other candidates. There are also Democrats and others "on the Left" who are desperate to be "disaffected" and who really want to have a candidate like Trump "who speaks the truth" and "really represents me".

@Gambit_1: There are also the much-vaunted and highly-desired "undecideds" who could go to Baby Kennedy simple because of the name and because people who "seem reasonable" (like Joe Rogan) won't shut up about him and give him airtime and turn him into some kind of pretend underdog.

@thedisasterautist I hadn't realized Rogan was pumping him up. That's not surprising and, I guess most people who would just vote for him because Rogan likes him probably wouldn't have voted for Biden anyway, still anything that legitimizes him is scary.

@Gambit_1: Yeah, Rogan likes him "because he speaks his mind" and also because Baby Kennedy does roids. (I mean it. He does Old Man 'Roids. Rogan and his fans "respect" him because "for an old guy he's shredded".)

@thedisasterautist damn. I'd love to write him off, but this is exactly how Trump started. We can't make the same mistake the GOP made by ignoring him. FML
