Showing Original Post only (View all)I wonder how many on left know what RFK jr position is on Israel? [View all]
https://www.timesofisrael.com/2024-dark-horse-rfk-jr-questions-gaza-ceasefire-defends-israeli-offensive/amp/ LOS ANGELES, California (Reuters)- Independent US presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. offered staunch support for Israel in a Reuters interview, calling it a moral nation that was justly responding to Hamas provocations with its attacks on Gaza and questioning the need for a six-week ceasefire backed by President Joe Biden.
Biden has also been a vocal defender of Israel since the October 7 attack by Hamas, but he has recently pressured the country to stem the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and accelerate a six-week ceasefire for hostage releases and aid delivery.
Asked if he supported a temporary ceasefire in Gaza, Kennedy told Reuters: I dont even know what that means right now.
Kennedy said that each previous ceasefire has been used by Hamas to rearm, to rebuild and then launch another surprise attack. So what would be different this time? he said.

In all likelihood those that plan to vote for him did not vote for Biden in 2020.

It's ridiculous to think that there will be anyone even close to the top of the ballot...
Think. Again.

RFK's support comes mostly from disaffected Trumpies who are having doubts about the orange buffoon.

I said in another post they need to drop the anti-vax stuff and focus on this.
