RFK Jr: “It’s ironic” that the Democratic Party lambasts Russia’s rigged election while they’re trying to do the same thing here

“Biden is gonna have $3 billion… probably double any campaign in history.

But he’s not gonna use that money to amplify his voice.

He’s gonna use it to try to get Trump off the ballot and to try to get me off the ballot.

It’s ironic, because the Democrats are all lambasting Vladimir Putin because he won 88% of the vote because he didn’t have any opponents, but that’s the situation they’re trying to engineer for us where the party picks the candidate and nobody else is allowed to run against them.”

He's delusional. It's embarrassing to watch.

Have you ever lived through an America presidential election where one party was trying to prevent multiple opponents’ names from being allowed on the ballot?

I would give him a chance, but unfortunately, he doesn’t have a chance.
It seems it’s between Biden and Trump and I absolutely hate that I’m gonna have to vote Trump. Biden has gotta go.

We’ve never lived through an American election like 2020, where the loser attempted to overturn the results in multiple ways, including pressuring state officials, putting together slates of fake electors and trying to have his VP/Congressional allies refuse to certify an election. The Colorado Supreme Court, a Maine elected official and an Illinois judge (none of whom are Biden, as RFK alleges), thought those actions fit the definition of insurrection and disqualified that candidate. The Supreme Court (appointees of both parties) disagreed with their rationale, and he’ll appear.

In terms of him, it appears the DNC made a complaint to the FEC about his signature gathering being conducted by an outside PAC, which seems very likely to be a violation of campaign finance laws. That’s not attempting to keep him off the ballot, that’s saying he should have to follow the same rules everyone else does to get on it.

And the idea that Biden isn’t using his campaign money on ads to amplify his voice is ridiculous and proven wrong by a simple Google search:

Trump is a fraud and a liar, a rapist, a scam artist. And he's clearly demented. Voting for Trump is a vote for lying evil. RFK Jr. is a pathetic ass, an anti-vaxer who supports nutty fruitcake arguments against vaccines and proven science.

The answer is no… you haven’t.


In order for any of those reasons to be valid, being held accountable in a court of law and being found guilty would need to happen first.

It didn’t.


Now the Biden campaign is trying to keep both trump and rfk’s names off the ballot, in essence, attempting to take choice away from the population. A dictator move, as they suggest the other people will be dictators if they get in…

So it shouldn’t matter who the population “wants” to vote for.


He’s not amplifying his own voice, his party is working to amplify their own voices because Biden isn’t mentally capable of holding a debate anymore… so his handlers will take care of it for him…

It’s wrong.

As you attempted to force everyone to get a Covid vaccine, knowing it was not yet safe…

Taking people’s choice away when it comes to what is injected into their bloodstream in order to take part in society. As the ones you trusted have now been proved wrong…





The attempted overreach of government control is not going to be palatable anymore…

"We’re facing an unprecedented election and we know the GOP is already working to prop up third-party candidates like Robert Kennedy Jr. to make them stalking horses for Donald Trump,” Corridoni told NBC News. “With so much on the line, we’re not taking anything for granted. We’re going to make sure voters are educated and we’re going to make sure all candidates are playing by the rules.”

“The Biden campaign” had nothing to do with the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision to remove Trump from the primary ballot, a decision that was later overturned by the Supreme Court, who didn’t find that “being held accountable in a court of law and being found guilty would need to happen first”, but rather that states cannot disqualify federal candidates. It was a novel legal question due to the unprecedented nature of Trump’s 2020 actions.

The DNC (again, not the Biden campaign) asking the FEC to weigh in on the legality of the RFK campaign’s use of a PAC to collect signatures to appear on the ballot isn’t taking a choice away from anyone. If the population wants RFK on the ballot, there’s nothing stopping his campaign from collecting signatures in an above board fashion that doesn’t violate campaign finance regulations.

RFK said “he’s not gonna use that money to amplify his voice” - the tens of millions of dollars being spent by his campaign on ads already refute that entirely. It doesn’t take millions of dollars to engage in a debate, so if that dig was supposed to imply “Biden isn’t capable of debating”, it was a pretty silly way to attempt to make that point.
