A vote for Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is a vote for Trump. It truly is as simple as that.

Don't let anyone gaslight you on this.

@dangillmor
Unless of course you were going to vote for Trump and switched to RFK ?

@the5thColumnist @dangillmor The medium is the message here.

How many people here would be voting for Trump?

@dangillmor RFK is batshit crazy. Must be all that smack over the years.
Donald Trump and RFK Jr Have the Same Largest Donor

GOP mega-donor Timothy Mellon in January gave $5m to Super PACs supporting both the Republican's and independent's 2024 campaigns.

Newsweek
@dangillmor depends what state you live in and how it allocates electoral college votes. No matter who I vote for in Oregon it's a vote for Biden.
@zaron5551 @dangillmor not if enough states pass the popular vote act.
New York RFK Jr. campaign official suggests he's a spoiler who can help Trump win

"The only way that Trump can even (have a) remote possibility of taking New York is if Bobby is on the ballot," said RFK Jr. staffer Rita Palma.

CBS News
@dangillmor I don’t know. I think someone who would vote for Kennedy would vote for trump over Biden anyways so that actually helps Biden.
@dangillmor A vote for Trump is a vote for Trump. Democrats keep deluding themselves that their losses were due to 3rd party candidates, rather than voter suppression, mediocre candidates, and failing to address core voter concerns.

@dangillmor I always chuckle at post like this because the math is clearly wrong.

At most it's a half vote for Trump. πŸ˜†

@dangillmor - I think RFK Jr. is a terrible candidate myself, but this post makes a false assumption that everyone that might vote for him would choose Biden if RFK Jr. wasn't on their ballot - whereas the reality is some percentage of them (perhaps even the majority) would vote for Trump, another 3rd party or independent candidate, or not vote at all. In fact some analyses of the crowd that RFK Jr. is attracting have come to the conclusion that he pulls from potential Trump voters a tiny more.

@dangillmor

I'm a mathematician who has studied voting systems.

Your claim is absolutely false and you don't need a math degree to see it. Try it with poker chips!

Every single election for decades now this obviously false claim is made, and only by Democrats.

Lying to the populace in order to cause fear is what Republicans do. It's embarrassing when Democrats do it. Please desist.

EDIT: Insulting and then blocking me is not an argument. If you have a refutation, let's see it.
