MAGAt's think this is huge for trump

[RJ_MacReady]

I saw one of them on my FB excited and saying christmas came early. They seem to think this will somehow get him millions of extra votes.

[lame54]

1. RFK was the Trump alternative...

Now what?

[Happy Hoosier]

6. He'll get some Kamala will get some.

Some will stay home.

[RJ_MacReady]

2. Now

Harris shrugs and beats trump.

[tanyev]

3. They're going to be disappointed.

[Xavier Breath]

35. A bunch of blockheads.

[bucolic_frolic]

4. millions of extra worms. MAGAts and maggots, perfect together

[proud patriot]

5. Maggats are broken people who need a hug

I feel so bad for them to have been soo broken . to see goodness as weakness
to see love and kindness and think it's a sham. Something really broke them ..
I wish I could just hug them all so they could actually feel
genuine feelings again . I want to make them cry .

[LuvLoogie]

15. .Vote for Kamala. That'll make them cry.

[proud patriot]

18. Not only that

I'm asking every single person I talk to in the real world to register to vote .

I'm making sure every post office on the Big Island has voter
registration forms out like is required by law .

I even just changed my voicemail so every call I get hears
my joyous voice asking them to registter to vote .

7. Trump doesn't need millions.

If just 100k RFK Jr voters swing Tump in PA, WI, NC, AZ, NV and MI... he can win.

The good news is... Harris stacking great polls and even the extra voters might not be enough for Trump.

[lees1975]

14. You're talking in terms of numbers RFK Jr. would never get.

He didn't have close to that kind of support in any of those states, and it's more likely they'll drop out and not vote at all, they will not be a block of votes for Trump, the ones that do show up will be split. At best, if they're 60-40 for Trump, that wouldn't be nearly enough. And they're not that much for Trump.

[WarGamer]

17. the latest WI poll shows Jr at 4%

With 3.3 million voters in 2020... 4% is 132,000 votes.

trump lost by 20k in 2020

[RJ_MacReady]

19. no

He lost by hundreds of thousands. And this isn't going to hurt Harris. That's an absurd notion.

[Sky Jewels]

20. Your numbers are wrong. The difference in votes in WI in 2020 WAS about 20,000 votes.

[WarGamer]

29. 20k in WI. Look it up

[obamanut2012]

22. He is not getting 4%

[WarGamer]

30. if Trump gets a portion of those votes it's still more than zero.

[newdayneeded]

31. Not a chance!

[obamanut2012]

21. He is on the ballot in some of those states

[ibegurpard]

8. It WILL get him votes

But only from disaffected Republicans and Libertarians who were looking for a possible Trump alternative. They were never going to vote for a Democrat.
It could be a negative for us in that it removes the spoiler for Trump from the race.

[RJ_MacReady]

11. I think

Any gain would be negligible.

[Klarkashton]

9. How long before Kennedy retracts his endorsement

Because trump refuses to publicly buy into his shit. Kennedy is unstable and brittle. It's pretty clear that trump isn't going to disavow the Covid Vax program and condemn big agriculture and the rest of his shit.

[tanyev]

10. I guess Kennedy is the latest in a long line

who thought they could guide and manage Trump. They all resign or get fired eventually.

[moonscape]

26. Wasn't it his VP who wanted that? I

don’t think Kennedy cares, I mean he doesn’t seem to care enough about his wife not to do this. He wants a job, some excitement, cameras …

[CoopersDad]

12. There is no reason to think that Trump would attract more than 50% of RFKs base.

Here on the Central Coast we've got a few RFK supporters who've been showing up at pride parades and democratic party events.

Their values don't align with MAGA, but I can't speak for other regions.

RFK is bitter with his party, I don't think he was ever a Conservative. He needs to get over his butt-hurt self.

[617Blue]

13. Wouldn't it have had more impact if Kennedy had done this later?

[obamanut2012]

24. Yes

[jimfields33]

34. I heard he did it today to impact Sunday shows.

Jerk!

[GoodRaisin]

16. It won't make a blip in the outcome of the election.

Combing a tiny bag of shit into a bigger bag of shit. Still the same smelling shit. It’s really not even news worthy except for the good family Kennedy name will get associated with the worst American in history.

[BannonsLiver]

23. A fart in the wind

But pseudo experts and doomies are going to make more of it than what it is, apparently.

[RJ_MacReady]

25. yup

A hint of "concern" already about it.

[BannonsLiver]

27. Yes, the games people play.

I expect there will be quite a lot of concern moving forward.

[C_U_L8R]

28. What a joke.

It's a desperate and obvious ploy to quash our post-convention joy. It won't work. It may even backfire.

[RJ_MacReady]

36. it already fizzled

Nobody is talking about it and nobody cares lol.

[D_Master81]

32. Forgetting 1 thing

Just because RFK says to vote for Trump will his supporters do it. I’m sure some will but it’s not like people thought he had a chance at winning. RFK was the protest vote when you didn’t support either candidate. Trump has been around for 9 years. If someone wasn’t won over already is an RFK endorsement what does it?

[RidinWithHarris]

33. Meh. I think RFK Jr. dropping out and endorsing Trump *slightly* benefits Trump...

...but if the MAGAt's think they're getting the full benefit of all would-be RFK Jr. votes, they're nuts.

Oh, sorry, that's a given anyway.

A fair portion of these loons will find some other no-chance candidate, write in Mickey Mouse, even vote for Harris, etc. And, of course, many won't vote at all.
