Before COVID being an anti-vaxxer was a luxury belief system for Hollywood elites like Bill Maher and Woody Harrelson. RFK's core fan base is people who made being against something that happened four years ago a core part of their identity.
In every single way besides being against muh clot shot he's a 2003 shit lib.

Powerleveling here, but prior to the chink virus and its fuckery, literally the ONLY vocal anti-vaxxers I knew IRL were leftoid hippie conspiritards who did drugs. Think of degenerate stoners who enjoyed shit like Loose Change and Michael Moore movies, bands like Rage Against the Machine, and had Bush Derangement Syndrome in the 2000's. They believed in bogus conspiracy theories and thought western medicine was a scam. Seeing the mainstream shiblibs rebranding the anti-vax movement as "right wing" is astounding.

Vance is definitely a far more obvious "loyalist" pick (assuming he is genuine in his political beliefs) then Pence was when he was chosen and there is a very good chance should Trump win the election, he will effectively his political successor and be the one to shape the Republican Party in the future.

That's the big thing. Even if Trump wins... this is it. Picking a youthful VP that can prove himself in the next four years as the rightful heir is the smartest choice. It's why he didn't choose anyone with a 5 in front of their age. America needs new growth after Trump. I think you're onto something more than you realize.

Can the DNC get the golem back on its leash after Saturday?

Well let's put this into the perspective of someone who is only recently understanding how things work.

In the debate, their grip was loosened and the mask started coming off.

After Saturday, the mask has fully fallen off and their hands are frantically trying to type out why the golem isn't theirs. Don't do violence, haha, please don't kill me. Let's be civil here.

Coward shit.

lol maybe the protestors outside the DNC are going to be fine, this turnout is grim and they don’t normally do wild things unless they have numbers to back things up.

Not to flex my own dick, but I've organized larger protests. Now whether that's something to be proud of is a different argument completely. Protests are gay and do nothing.

Thats the kind of facts that make me feel better about the people I’m voting for. Anyone who was against us sending more money to Ukraine and at the same time helping Trump is good in my book. Don’t really care if he was against Trump in 2016, a lot of people who like Trump now were against him back then. Trump was a basically a tv show host in the minds of most people, thinking he was running a legitimate campaign at the beginning was a crazy thought. Fuck I didn’t think Trump was a good vote at the start either but obviously now I’m glad I’m wrong.

Hell, I voted for Trump as a joke because I despise Clinton. I actually had a teacher once when I was younger who warned us because we were at that age where we were about to start voting. Clinton wasn't running for anything at the time but he went out of his way to say "Whatever you do, do not vote for Hillary Clinton. She is most insane power hungry woman on the planet." He was absolutely right. I never forgot what he said and I sure as hell was never voting for Clinton as long as I lived.

However, I'm telling you all this story to remind you all this is the power teachers have over your kids. Just because this one was right and based AF, doesn't mean you should trust them. On a side note, anyone else have more things that Vance said or did? I could swear he was on podcasts before.

Normies have the memories of goldfish and the people they look up lie/lie by omission with an agenda.

I know this ain't the place to complain about life, but my fucking God. It's terrible when you learn just how many people close to you are completely deranged. A personal friend of mine argued that it would be best if Trump died, and I said that it would probably cause a civil war or some serious conflict, and he had no problem with that.

In fact, he wanted it to happen, because in his words: It would help us get rid of extremists.

We always talk about Accelerationist-fags, but I think my eyes just opened to the fact that there are people on the left who also want this powder keg to explode, just so they can kill people they disagree with. It's honestly depressing.

Let's all be happy that the bullet missed.

They still think they’re the main characters of their heckin marvel movies. In reality they’d all be slaughtered because republicans have the guns and know how to use them

This. There needs to be more back benchers. Part of what is wrecking the Democrats right now is the Clinton Machine did everything they could to insure nobody could get uppity and threaten the Queens rise to power. Obama was an anomaly to be sure, but by and large the Democrats literally have nobody that could realistically replace Biden. The party brass are all fucking old, and the younglings are servile boot lickers and/or crazy like AOC.

His age is the big thing for me. A big problem with current politics (as can be seen with Biden) is the overwhelming amount of geriatrics.

Yeah, this is a big problem for the Dems, and the gerontocrats have held onto power so tightly that there's little viable "new blood" that isn't joined to the hip with them via blood ties or just plain isn't ready for prime time (or both). The Rs have somehow managed to be not as terrible about having rising generations that aren't laughable media creations like The Squad.

I'm honestly curious what Vance would look like without Trump being above him anymore. His entire political identity right now mostly seems dedicated to agreeing with whatever Trump supports. Hope he has some form of vision for the right-wing in America should he become the successor of Trump.
