“TRUMP HAS ‘NO PROBLEM’ WITH RFK JR JOINING DEBATE. Smerconish on CNN This Morning with Kasie Hunt”

From Michael Smerconish

As I wrote about Robert F. Kennedy JR. back in March:

“As an at best Independent Democrat at this point, whose not in love with the Democratic Party politically, or really anything else, for that matter, I would love to see Robert F. Kennedy JR. run for President as a Libertarian. Why? Because it would just confirm what I, what this blog, and what a lot of other Democrats believe about RFK JR. that he’s simply a MAGA man, who at the very least doesn’t want Joe Biden to be reelected and perhaps even wants Donald Trump back in The White House, where all their MAGA conspiracy theories and avenues to financially profit for them, would open up.”

As I wrote about Robert F. Kennedy JR. back in April:

“As far as RFK JR. telling CNN anchor Erin Burnett, who I’m a fan of and think she does a great job and is an excellent interviewer and really doesn’t take any junk (to put it mildly) from her guests, once again Bob JR. is just trying to blame President Biden for something that he can’t even try to defend.”

As my colleague Kire Schneider wrote about Robert F. Kennedy JR. last week: 

“As far as Robert F. Kennedy JR: The New Democrat has been pretty clear about him from the beginning. He’s a better looking, more intelligent, perhaps healthier, younger (even though he’s 70 years old) Donald Trump. But now we know he also has brain damage, which explains his braindead presidential campaign. (Pun intended) And maybe he’s looking for a way to get out of this election, because he’s now seeing polling that his campaign is hurting Donald Trump. Which he doesn’t want and is looking for a way to get out of this, before he hurts Trump even more. “

I just want to respond to a point that Michael Smerconish made to Kasie Hunt first.

Michael Smerconish: “Donald Trump feeds off an audience. There won’t be an audience for these debates.”

How did that work for then President Trump in 2020? He was down even in the Electoral College polling going into the first presidential debate against Joe Biden and didn’t get beat in those debates, because he was too busy beating himself. Joe Biden won both debates simply by not being Donald Trump and coming off as a normal presidential candidate. You could argue that Joe was going to win the election anyway. But those debates might have cost him Georgia, Arizona, maybe even Wisconsin as well.

As far as the Tom Brady celebrity roast: Kasie Hunt had the perfect point there: “I think he made a lot of money off it.” Which is what this really about.

Brady is probably a bored celebrity, narcissistic billionaire, whose under 50 (who’l hopefully never run for President because of that) and he can just tell his kids: “Celebrity events like this and my football career, is what’s putting you through college and giving you hefty trust funds. So grow up and take it like a man.”

If you are Joe Biden, the only thing you want to do, is beat Donald J. Trump. Who’ll hopefully be Convict Don before the conventions, not just the election. The last thing you want to do is to be screwing around with Donald Trump’s younger, better looking, hipper, smarter, physically stronger, little political brother, Robert F. Kennedy JR. Whose simply running for President as Donald Trump’s political wingman or blocker, whose simply trying to keep Joe Biden from winning reelection. I mean Bob Kennedy isn’t even qualified for the debates right now and isn’t on enough state ballots to win the election. Don’t give him a bigger platform than he deserves.
