'Nuts And Clearly Disturbed': New RFK Jr. Spot Has Absolutely Bonkers Opening

[Tom of Temecula]

Critics are wondering how and why this new video from the independent presidential candidate ever got released. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. spends the first minute and change of his new promotional video trashing an unexpected candidate: himself. The new 30-minute spot features the independent presidential candidate reading attacks on himself, almost like a Jimmy Kimmel “Mean Tweets” segment. But instead criticism from randos on social media, Kennedy reads attacks from analysts, pundits and media critics.

“He’s nuts and clearly disturbed, The Standard,” Kennedy reads. “Kennedy is a humorless bully living in a paranoid fantasy, Vanity Fair. What the fuck is wrong with Bobby Kennedy?” Kennedy reads critics slamming him as a crank and conspiracy theorist. “I wouldn’t vote for that guy, either,” says Kennedy.

Much of the rest of the video is narrated by actor Woody Harrelson, who attempts to reintroduce the candidate by painting him as an environmentalist and outdoorsman ready to take on corporate interests. “He was kinda like Erin Brockovich,” Harrelson says, referring to the environmental activist. “But a Kennedy.”

Most of Kennedy’s own family has endorsed President Joe Biden, as have a number of his environmentalist colleagues. An ad from the Natural Resources Defense Council says Kennedy has been “spinning anti-vaccination conspiracy theories, denying science” and urges him to drop out of the race. But it’s the wild opening minute of his new video that has people talking on social media:

1. His "I am not a witch" moment.

[ArkansasDemocrat1]

5. Quiet! Quiet! Quiet! Quiet! There are ways of telling whether he is a witch n/t

[Doc Sportello]

2. There's a lot of nutty, disturbed people out there

Who believe in the conspiracy theories and hate the elite media. When an ad tells them he is ok and is going up against the "establishment" they will buy it. Mostly dump voters I think but some of the woo crowd will also go for him.

3. Ok, thanks Froggy ...

you can go back to being a POS now

[MorbidButterflyTat]

6. "Froggy"

[DoBW]

9. Froggy went a courtin'

Froggy went a-courtin', and he did ride, Uh-huh
Froggy went a-courtin', and he did ride, Uh-huh
With a vaccine conspiracy by his side, Uh-huh

[NoRethugFriends]

15. And

And
I will still run for president
Without my mom Ethel's consent.
Uh-huh, uh-huh

16. Kennedy has a neurological condition called

spasmodic dysphonia. There is no cure for it. Laughing and joking about how he talks is no better than the MAGAts mocking Biden for his stutter.

Not a pretty look.

[Rebl2]

18. Agree

I believe one of his sisters speaks the same way, but maybe not as pronounced. It’s really not nice to make jokes about it. He cannot help it.

4. WTH is wrong with his voice?

7. He has a disease

spasmodic dysphonia.

10. Thanks. Had to look that up...

Spasmodic dysphonia is thought to be caused by abnormal functioning in an area of the brain called the basal ganglia. The basal ganglia help coordinate the movements of muscles throughout the body. Recent research has found abnormalities in other regions of the brain associated with spasmodic dysphonia, including areas of the cerebral cortex that control commands to muscles and coordinate these commands with incoming sensory information.

Perhaps it's time for him to seek medical attention; it appears a considerable part of his brain has abnormalities.

12. Caused by being a long term heroin addict?

[womanofthehills]

17. Have you checked out Kerry Kennedy's voice?

I think it can be hereditary.

[eggplant]

8. Didn't you listen? It's the crack pipe.

[LiberalLovinLug]

11. The most disturbing part of that story is that Woody Harrelson is a supporter

I mean WTF?

I've always respected Woody. Mostly from his fight to legalize pot. But he's been on the front lines for a lot of good causes. Just sad.

[lindysalsagal]

13. I think the moniker "woody" might have been aimed at his brain....

[IronLionZion]

14. He's a disgrace to his father's name

his policies are loony. His voice is not the problem.

For people who don't know, he has spasmodic dysphonia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spasmodic_dysphonia
