A disappointment to his family.

Too bad. Would have loved to have him steal votes from Trump.

BassTurd@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 2y

Still might. I'm curious how many apathetic voters just won't vote if he's out rather than crawl back to team Trump. I assume most Kennedy supporters probably knew this was going to happen eventually.

About seven people care.

And 4 of them are in RFK Jr's head.

Only republican worms get that honor

One of them is Joe Rogan who also seems to suffer from brain worms.

He's still polling just under 5%, yeah he's not gonna win but that's still better then any other third party candidate in the last couple cycles and represents millions of (braindead) Americans. Even if you don't support him you should care he's endorsing trump as the race is still very tight and if a majority of his supporters follow him into the trump camp that could be it for Harris.

Yeah it's unfortunate. His family will probably be campaigning against him but you can't fix stupid.

Why the fuck did he run? Did he think he would win? I mean if you're going to be a spoiler candidate be a spoiler. Wtf?

He realized he was spoiling the wrong side

RFK write-in campaign, it's your time to shine!

Don't let the Deep Stateā„¢ force RFK off the ballot! Start fightin' with your write-in!

Oops.

Money laundering, and leverage against other candidates.

Suavevillain@lemmy.world · 18 pts · 2y

Endorsing Trump is embarrassing. I don't get any of his appeal at all even for an outsider.

I'm getting Stargate flashbacks and hoping we get to talk to his goa'uld

Hope so! He's so two faced.

The worm probably wants a break from piloting for a bit.
