It looks like RFK is on the point of dropping out and abandoning his candidacy.

Three guesses as to who he will endorse when he does ?

RFK was supposed to be there to take votes off of Biden, so it’ll be interesting to see if this backfires - the people voting for him aren’t necessarily Trump fans and may not take the bait and switch well at all.

Apparently, it's pronounced KAAm'la.

I've been saying K'mAAla.

I didn’t think it mattered that much but it will be interesting, I read an interesting article about the Kennedy name and its mythology.

People vote for that kind of rubbish.

Yeah, that tactic calling the MAGAs weird was an absolute masterstroke. Because they are *so* fucking weird.

Apparently RFKs wife is none too pleased either.

I have a suspicion this is going to hurt Trump, not help. RFKs supporters feel betrayed, and it smacks of desperation that’s going to play into the narrative of Trump’s campaign being on the skids.

Plus Trump will leave him out to dry at some point and then there’ll be the exposure of whatever dubious deal was done. So there’s that too.

I only found out recently that RFK’s missus is the actor Cheryl Hines, known for playing Larry David’s partner in Curb Your Enthusiasm.

You might have formed the impression from that that here was a very intelligent, attractive woman with a progressive outlook (I did), and wondered why the buggering fuck she actually married an anti-vaxxer crank like Kennedy. I still do.

Larry helps out his ex to be America’s Carla Bruni. With hilarious consequences

If you have the time to spare, Behind The Bastards have just finished a four part series on RFKJR, and from that I learned the real mystery might be why she's still with him

Meanwhile, Trump is going to be incandescent at this polling…

I should point out that RFK Jr has said that a worm eat part of his brain.

Foo Fighters have reacted after Donald Trump used one of their songs during his presidential election campaign

This article details a substantial amount of acts who have objected to Trump using their stuff. I've always thought it amusing MAGA types belt out Springsteen's Born In The USA, stupidly ignorant to its meaning.

Doesn't he also sometimes walk on (doing that fucking idiotic little "dad dance") to "YMCA" by Village People? Can he really be unaware of the song's gay anthem status or meaning?
