"SNIP..........
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has recently approached the N.F.L. quarterback Aaron Rodgers and the former Minnesota governor and professional wrestler Jesse Ventura about serving as his running mate on an independent presidential ticket, and both have welcomed the overtures, two people familiar with the discussions said.
Mr. Kennedy confirmed on Tuesday that the two men were at the top of his list. It is not clear if either has been formally offered the post, however, and Mr. Kennedy is still considering a shortlist of potential candidates, the people familiar with the discussions said.
Mr. Kennedy said that he had been speaking with Mr. Rodgers “pretty continuously” for the past month, and that he had been in touch with Mr. Ventura since the former governor introduced him at a campaign event last month in Arizona.
A representative for Mr. Rodgers did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Mr. Ventura could not immediately be reached for comment.

CNN:
Aaron Roger's is a Sandy Hook truther on top of being anti-vax.
= new reply since forum marked as read
... RFK Jr and the Electoral College already have a stealth running mate... Trump.
Ventura has become steadily weirder since he was governor of Minnesota (when he was also weird, but relatively harmlessly so since he had no support in the Legislature), and now he's a full-on conspiracy nut. And Aaron Rodgers is just a douchebag.
come across my feed while doing something else and I just wanted to vomit. This is a gd government, not a fraternity or a side show. Let's hope this is the nail in the coffin for that stupid pos.
