The stance puts Kennedy — who’s mounting long shot bid to unseat President Joe Biden as the Democratic standard bearer in 2024 — out of step with most of his party.

      Gonna sound a bit conspiracy-laden but bear with me. His rhetoric is entirely republican from top to bottom and his demographics are nearly identical to trump’s. He may be attempting to poach citizen citrus’s audience without earning his ire. Desantis has run afoul of trump by running against him and has been disparaged heavily by trump as a result, but running as a democrat defuses RFKjr in trump’s eyes. The worst Kennedy released a book full of crazy and made a fair sum of money off of it, and he may just want to continue his grift on a bigger crowd. Regardless, his choice to run as a democrat is bad for Biden.
