A reminder that RFK Jr was always a GOP Op

A reminder that RFK Jr was always a GOP Op, built around the disastrously stupid idea that Democrats would vote for anyone named Kennedy. When he instead started to draw in Right Wing influencers as Trump began visibly melting before our eyes, it was time to reel him in.

A truly stupid gambit.— C. Robert Cargill (@crobertcargill.bsky.social) Aug 23, 2024 at 3:57 PM

- He ran in the Democractic primary to weaken Biden
- When that plan didn't work, he switched to independent to be a spoiler for Trump
- When his numbers were going down and he was actually pulling support from trump, he dropped out and endorsed trump
