    Oh no! The crazy spoiler candidate they help fund and put all over right wing media is taking voters from the right wing? Wow I am shocked. If only someone could have seen this coming.

    Bobby Kennedy will take even more votes from Trump as time goes on. The reason is simple. He’s been entirely locked out of the left wing information sphere by being labeled anti-vax. That’s a plus in the right wing sphere.

      I mean, he’s got plenty of other things going for him to get him “locked out” of the left wing information sphere

    I know it’s just my anecdotal experience but I don’t know a single Biden or Trump voter that’s been lost to rfk jr.

    Both sides just see him as a spoiler or have no idea who he is.

    I personally think he’d appeal more to the less informed conspiracy types but he’s got no where the charisma or draw Trump does to that crowd.

    On paper, he’s meant to peel the less critical-thinking voters off from the Democrats (with the Kennedy mystique and anti-vaccine rhetoric). In reality, a significant number of those would have already gone over to Trump (think QAnon yoga bunnies and such).
