If you assume he’s legit(which maybe? I’ve heard rumors the leaks about him working with Trump were fake because the Republicans are panicking and fear he’ll siphon votes, some people blame the Dems, some people say it’s true, honestly all 3 are possible at this point though I lean to the first one) getting the Libertarians and whatever is left of the Reform Party with him is probably the best possible call for RFK.
There’s been a bit of a Libertarian revolt internally, the Colorado branch defected to Kennedy and the party’s been a bit directionless since Chase Oliver turned the party leftward and broke with the old Gary Johnson clique. And the Reform Party died when they lost Nader in 2005, they haven’t been relevant in years. There’s also a couple small state level parties joining RFK’s coalition who used to work with the Constitution Party so who knows what they’ll do. Every third party who isn’t the Green Party or PSL has some degree of interest in RFK Jr
His own song posted a video of him palling around on the phone with Trump about anti-vaxx bullshit. You come in here suggesting he’s NOT in league with Trump to siphon votes?
Yeah, everyone knows that libertarians are way into big controlling governments, certainly libertarians will take away dem votes.
Seriously though, it’s so weird having so many vocal people who haven’t the slightest idea what they are talking about. I honestly wouldn’t be surprsomething. a few years there are a bunch of people going on about how the vp is and has always been the top office, certainly way above pres, that’s like 5th.
If you don’t know what you’re talking about, take some time to read. It will literally change your life if you leave teach mode when you are brand new to something.
Like if you support third parties in general aiming for the center(which RFK is given that both sides have accused him of being a spoiler) is the best bet, and getting the other 3rd parties in line helps. Interested to see if he can break the 5 percent funding margin to get on debates and get national funding. 2000 was the last election that was at play for anyone.
I’d much rather we had some more extreme third parties and a voting system that allowed them to exist.
The last fucking thing I want is someone trying to be “centrist” in the modern US political spectrum. I’m pretty sure if you looked at historical candidates you’d find Ronald Reagan would be defined as a centrist in the modern world.
We need to shift this broken ass Overton window back to the left.
Not if we managed to drop FPTP - but until then I agree that third parties are unfortunately spoilers. It gave us Woodrow Wilson a man generally considered our worst president before fucking Trump showed up.

Problem is that weakens the dems, see Ralph Nader
