Look man, I hate the 2 party system but dude has brain worms. And acts like it.
He is an independent candidate. There is, by definition no independent party.
The lumping together of all independants is disingenuous.
Not voting for RFKjr but technically he was nominated by the American independent party
Edit
Right, which is not a party that is representative of all independants. In fact, by labeling it a party, they are no longer independent, they are, you know, a party.
By that logic, the Green party is an "independent" party.
Think of it from this perspective. Bernie Sanders is an independent. Here is how Wikipedia defines it: it:
"An independent, non-partisan politician or non-affiliated politician is a politician not affiliated with any political party or bureaucratic association."
I'm not supporting brain worms man.
I'm highlighting that the independents we seem to get have brain worms.
RFK Jr. He literally had brain worms apparently. This is not a figure of speech.
Your ignorance of current events does not make it a bad political cartoon.
