Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said Wednesday he believes Russia acted in “good faith” amid the Kremlin’s invasion of Ukraine, adding the U.S., in fact, bore heavy responsibility for the ongoing war.
What the cinnamon toast fuck.
Cripes this guy is next dumpster fire.
I’ve read a couple of things about this guy since joining lemmy, and none of it is quite news worthy. Beside his pedigree he’s just an idiot with a lot of misguided ideas who shouldn’t be given a platform.
Dude’s an antivaxxer and now clearly a Russian pawn. I don’t want to vote for Biden again but its beginning look like I don’t have a choice… again. Love this two party system. /s
Asshat is opening antivax institutes ffs
You could vote third party, but at that point you might as well not show up at all. /s
Seriously, which part of this is sarcasm?
This is why I hate the 2-party system. If you’re not voting for one of those 2, it really doesn’t matter.
Hopefully there’s more movement on our electoral system like the ranked choice voting in a few states. It doesn’t fix the problem, but it’s a large step in the right direction.\
worse than that, you might as well vote for the other party at that point. yay two party system.
Even without a two party system, lots of people will still end up voting for someone that is not their preferred candidate. At least you could vote in a way that might change future races, however!
Exactly. Imagine what this guy will do with a little power.
Reduce war and not try to force mass vaccinations? (Scary)
As much as I’d love another choice, Biden has at least done good this presidency and navigated the Russian crisis masterfully. Do I want someone younger, yes (dear god yes). Has he surprised me with how stable his presidency has been and the recovery of our standing in the international community? Yes.
I’m going to vote for him again because we don’t have a choice. A vote for a 3rd party will be as destructive as it was in 2016. I bought into the narrative from Russia that Hillary was awful and that I should vote for anyone else. Look what they brought us? I, like many I know, voted for Bernie to send a message to the DNC. I threw away my vote for Hilary and then Trump won.
Someone you just need a stable, sane candidate. We will get an exciting candidate again in the future. Let’s just keep steering the ship in the right direction for now.
This guy has to be funded by the GOP and hoping everyone looks at his name and not anything he says.
As if it wasn’t obvious from the beginning he’s basically Russia’s pawn…
He wants people to distrust the mainstream media and listen to his own words. That almost sounds reasonable, but I wonder how clearly he’ll be able to enunciate with Putin’s dick in his mouth.
How in the fuck is this guy a democratic candidate?
What is it with the Kennedys? Look back over the generations and they’re either corrupt, philanderers or nut jobs. Or any combination thereof.
This witless cunt is a literal traitor to our country, and so is anybody who lends him even a modicum of support. The FBI really needs to start doing their fucking job and pry into him and the weasels funding his traitorous ass.
As he finished saying this and exited the room did some shady guy hand him a burlap sack filled with money?
Told ya that guy was a Russian stooge. Wonder if he’ll change his tune when Papa Vlad is swinging from a minaret.
Dude’s a crazy antivaxxer, but this title skips over the meat of his statements, which are actually pretty reasonable:
“I abhor Russia’s brutal and bloody invasion of that nation,” Kennedy said during a speech in New Hampshire on Tuesday. “But we must understand that our government has also contributed to its circumstances through repeated deliberate provocations of Russia going back to the 1990s.”
the host pointed out Putin has so far rejected those calls unless Russia keeps the territory it’s already claimed.
“No, no. Putin has repeatedly said yes,” Kennedy said. “In fact, he negotiated — two times he agreed to agreements. He agreed to the Minsk Accord, and then he agreed in 2022 to an agreement that would’ve left Ukraine completely intact.”
“It was us who forced Zelensky to sabotage that agreement. It was already signed,” he continued. “So, you know, the Russians were acting in good faith."
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is also a buffoon
Don’t let this betrayal be forgotten when you vote in the primaries next year. Or his anti-vax conspiracy promotion.
