You remaining "Republicans" see any problem with this?

It’s very clearly a chaos move. Knowing Bannon is behind it makes a lot more sense. He has zero chance of winning. He is only being inserted to create an “attack dog” against Biden and a platform for negative ads and debate chaos.

Anyone who thinks that an RFK Jr. candidacy will cause havoc among the Democrats is delusional. The Kennedy name will get him nowhere, and his attraction will be limited to the lunatic fringe of anti-vaxxers. Take a hike, RFK Jr.

Take a hike, RFK Jr. I’m not suggesting he is a viable candidate to democratic voters, I am suggesting he is a Manchurian candidate funded by China via Bannon to say befuddling things to try to trip Biden up and create good sound bytes to broadcast on Fox News where they can pretend they support some Democrat candidates and are not solely a propaganda arm of the Republican Party.

For the sake of the nation, one can only hope Frum is correct. It’s early in the election cycle, of course, but not too early to wonder: Are we watching a Republican electoral disaster in the making? Biden’s poll numbers are only so-so. But a presidential election offers a stark and binary choice: This or that? Biden may fall short of some voters’ imagined ideal of a president, but in 2024, voters won’t be comparing the Democrat with that ideal. They will be comparing him with the Republican alternative. Republicans are doing everything wrong. They are talking to their voters about Trump’s personal grievances and about boutique culture-war issues that their own base does not much care about, such as the state of Florida’s “war on Disney.” At the same time, Republican leaders are confronting Democratic voters with extremist threats on issues they care intensely about: bans on abortion medication by mail, restrictions on the freedom of young women to travel across state lines, attacks on student voting rights, proposed big cuts to Medicaid and food stamps in the GOP debt-ceiling ransom demand. Republicans offer no economic message and no affirming vision, even as they make new moves to police women’s bodies and start a land war in Mexico. They are well on their way to earning a deep, nasty defeat—and the smell of that defeat may be an additional draw to the polls for the Democratic-leaning constituencies that will inflict it. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2023/04/gop-republicans-2024-election-biden-trump/673856/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=atlantic-daily-newsletter&utm_content=20230426&utm_term=The%20Atlantic%20Daily

That’s how he got a full academic ride to Law School, visited Mandela, graduated top of his class, lost his wife to a drunk driver, etc… We should all take his word…. Countdown to but Trump lies more in 3,2,1

Didn't you get the memo on the entirety of the "Republican" worldview? That's how drag queens become a bigger issue than climate change.

And, by "boatloads," are we talking Jared Kushner "boatloads?" Again, evidence... I said “Biden family coffers”. And in my little world, millions are still boatloads. Well done getting a Trump reference in though.

Elvado: Respectfully, do you think there’s evidence of that out there that Reps haven’t found throughout of all these years? Or if Reps have found it, they haven’t use it giving Biden the win?

I believe, though Please correct me, that seven Biden family members were recipients of wire transfers from a Hunter Biden affiliate that received funds which originated from a ChiCom related energy company. Is that not correct? What those transfer mean or don’t means should be explored as Joe’s simple “that’s not true” doesn’t wash given his penchant for abject falsehoods.
