SD has been a doubter on RKJr. His posting of this indicates that he is open to a different opinion. A good thing.

Kudlow is right. If RFK Jr. can help Trump win then we’ll take it. But everything comes with a price and Kennedy has plenty of red flags around him. Proceed with caution.

Trump should FIRE half of DC and delete Dept of Ed. Then give Kennedy his head and plenty of workers. Find the TRUTH abt VACINNES and covid shots. Then we can execute Fauci. Kennedy will be a hero and Trump will have the credentials to claim victory.

I expect that Trump has the moves ready when the checkmate happens in November.

Yes, OP, Sundance has been very doubtful about RFK, Jr, as have most of TCT posters. I’m with Mr. Kudlow on this. We conservatives have been so battered by deception, corruption and betrayal in our own ranks, that it is natural that we now distrust everyone, especially someone who comes “from the other side.” I’m choosing to believe this is a positive thing for President Trump, for conservatives and especially for the country.

The dems did much to hurt Bobby. PDT did not. Bobby's concerns are vaccines, children's health (fake foods and drugs). I think PDT knows something about the JFK assassination that needs to see the light of day. If PDT creates a position for Bobby, no Senate approval is necessary. Bobby can roam thru the FDA etc.

So #6, do you know him personally? Or are you listening to the media? I ask that question because that is one of the things that RFK Jr. is stating about the media. Since he started the campaign, the media has jumped in and painted him as a nutcase. I guess I would like you to elaborate some more. . .

Whenever we post something as a fact rather than our opinion, it should be backed up with sources, links. If it cannot besourced, it is clearly just our opinion - but based upon what?

There few, but important and substantive areas where Trump and RFK are in agreement. Tthis is good thinking for RFK, some of his issues will get support in a Trump administration. A perfect example of "politics is the art of the possible". It is possible for RFK to get a few of his policies included by Trump, but ALL of his policies were impossible with Harris.

The bodies of a British tech tycoon, a Morgan Stanley executive, and five others, including a teenager, have been recovered after the superyacht Bayesian sank off the coast of Sicily on Aug. 19. What happened, and how could such a huge vessel suddenly go down within sight of the shore? Who Was on Board and Why? When a storm struck the superyacht Bayesian, off Porticello, near Palermo, around 5 a.m. on Aug. 19, there were 22 people on board: 12 passengers and a crew of 10. The passengers included Mike Lynch, the founder and former CEO of software firm Autonomy, his wife Angela Bacares—who was the Bayesian’s legal owner—and their 18-year-old daughter Hannah.

According to the Trump campaign, there will now be a special guest attending the Glendale, Arizona MAGA rally tomorrow (7:00pm ET). A lot of speculation has centered around Robert F Kennedy Jr, likely endorsing President Trump. Many people within the MAGA community, mostly those associated with the financial benefits of the movement, have been advocating for RFK Jr to be placed in a prominent Trump administration position. I am taking a wait-and-see approach; however, I do not see any benefit from any RFK endorsement. The same Republicans who voted for Evan McMullin, are the same Republicans currently supporting RFK Jr. That group will not change their anti-Trump position

The Department of Justice (DOJ) continues to hound pro-life activists who go to abortion businesses and try to convince pregnant women not to kill their babies. A Detroit, Michigan, jury found seven pro-lifers guilty Tuesday of engaging in a civil rights conspiracy and violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act for standing and sitting in front of the door of the Northland Family Planning Clinic in Sterling Heights, Michigan, Aug. 27, 2020. The 1994 Clinton-era FACE Act makes it a federal crime to intimidate or interfere with someone getting an abortion. Combined with the conspiracy charge the DOJ has added to recent FACE charges, the combined convictions

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has unveiled a new rule that the government estimates will protect about 550,000 illegal immigrants from being deported.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. gave an epic speech on Friday, during which he suspended his campaign and endorsed Donald Trump. And he destroyed the Democratic Party at the same time. "I attended my first Democratic convention at the age of 6 in 1960, and back then, the Democrats were the champions of the Constitution, of civil rights," Kennedy said. "The Democrats stood against authoritarianism, against censorship, against colonialism, imperialism, and unjust wars. We were the party of labor, of the working class.
