I am hesitant to Google because of all the absolute garbage that will come up, I don't want to sift through. Can anyone give me a little sparks notes on the shit he stands for? What has everyone whipped up into a frenzy?

RFK Jr

There was a conspiracy years ago that he was still alive and endorsed Trump or something like that. Or do you mean RFK Jr, who is running for president?

Edit: more info on the conspiracy if you’re thinking about JFK Jr: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/qanon-jfk-jr-alive-trump-b1995594.html

They still think he’s coming back to run with Trump in ‘24

Wait I thought he was supposed to have come back and usurped Joe Biden while riding a pony nude by now

Bruh it’s like a doomsday cult where the keep changing the date

Ahem. You left out the ponies. Don't forget the ponies.

yeah? someone told me a year or two ago they thought jfk AND jfk jr (& his wife) were coming back. or were already back. or something/somewhere. and how they were supposed to support him and all. no one ever got back to me about whether they were allegedly together lo these many years, or if each being alive was a surprise to the other.

you only say that because he smashed into the side of a mountain.. but haven't you seen buckaroo bonzai?

You make an excellent point. Or perhaps the plane crash was a ruse and he walks among us like a real life Jason Bourne.

Did you mean Robert Francis Kennedy Jr., the democrat running for president for 2024?
