...second in the imaginary media primary to RFK Jr., and Jill Stein following close behind.

Interesting that he revealed himself this early as a Trump defender. Of course we can't just ignore that he's been used as a foil against Pres. Biden to relate all sorts of opposition garbage like 'age' issues, and is most notable today for trying to make hay out of year-out polls and appeal to fellow kids like any other normal 50-something.

But, yeah, reminding that he's a nobody is the best response to this Trump-defending upstart.
