Frightening especially in light of the anti trans legislation presented by Pence and others during the last debate. It included restrictions for children AND adults. It was never about the children.

RFK Jr. said he was a Democrat a couple months ago. It’s obvious that was a lie. I agree with Honeyman that this is a PR stunt for a book. I cannot support someone who would ruin the chances of a Democrat being elected.

Between Jr. and the No Labels ticket, things look dire for Biden. Plus, there are the polls.

This.

And as a general comment to the righties: imagine too that my rights and freedom aren't based on whose in office. I would love to be in the early 90's again in elections having little influence over me. Imagine only caring about elections for 50 minutes a week when you flip past Fox News/CSPAN etc. instead of 24/7. When are people going to stop being assholes about politics?

Not in our lifetime. I see it getting even worse than it is now.

You're being overly dramatic.

Like Matt said, calm down a notch. It's great that yourself and others have a passion for politics. But pay no mind to the media. Most Americans are lukewarm about all of it.
As long as it don't affect them personally, Que Sera, Sera.
Life is not a dress rehearsal. This is it. There's no going back, and we can only go forward before we run out of runway.

This will be a setback for Kennedy... Not to discount the brilliance of having family run your campaign or anything.
Dennis J. Kucinich left his post as the presidential campaign manager for Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and was replaced by Mr. Kennedy’s daughter-in-law, a political neophyte best known for a memoir about her tenure in the C.I.A.

The campaign shake-up comes at a moment of renewed scrutiny on Mr. Kennedy’s campaign. The political scion of one of the most influential families in contemporary American politics announced on Monday that he was ending his Democratic primary challenge to President Biden and would continue his campaign as an independent candidate.

Mr. Kucinich’s departure came a surprise even to Mr. Kennedy’s press secretary, who was informed of it on Friday afternoon by a New York Times reporter. In a subsequent news release, Mr. Kennedy said his campaign had “benefited enormously from the political experience of Dennis Kucinich.” Mr. Kucinich was not quoted in the release.
