In 2016, a GOP candidate came down an escalator and threw the GOP primaries into chaos. ...
"It is true that about 15 percent of Democrats say they support Kennedy, according to the RealClearPolitics average of polls, as opposed to 62 percent who favor Biden. And I get it: Many Democrats wish there were a younger alternative to the 80-year-old Biden; and Kennedy, 69, has that magical name. The problem comes when Kennedy opens his mouth — and reveals that he lives in a make-believe world of paranoid conspiracy theories."
... I keep seeing people pushing poor Bobby's candidacy. People who do not agree with him on issues, or back him seriously out of ideological kinship. It's all about creating chaos, as with a former chaos candidate we saw emerge in the 2016 GOP primaries. But I doubt the Democratic primaries would evolve into chaos as the GOP ones did in 2016. The Democrats did have an angry old man jump in, one Bernie Sanders. But Bernie never got Democrats on his side. Bernie was one who thought he was too good t be a Democrat, until he needed to be one.

Back to Bobby: He has so little support. Facts Matter.
"If Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s name were Robert F. Smith Jr., he would be written off as an anti-vaccine nutjob.

This will come as a disappointment to the right-wing media outlets, unhinged conspiracy theorists and faux-libertarian billionaires who are doing their best to pretend Kennedy’s delusionary candidacy is a viable challenge to President Biden.
