In his speech on Friday, Mr. Kennedy implied that Mr. Trump had offered him a role in his second administration, dealing with health care and food and drug policy. “We’re going to reform the entire food system,” he said.

It’s worth noting that Kennedy’s health care policy is to bring back measles, that he eats roadkill, and had part of his brain eaten by a worm as a result.

    Uh…no…he was very pro gun. He was liberal on like one or two issues, but most of his policies were straight up Republican.

    I wanted to like the guy as a viable alternative to Biden, but he was hard right on too many issues.

      Just gonna point out damned near every lefty Redneck ive met is violently pro gun, but they all would happily mutilate someone for improper use of a firearm. The NRA and Republicans aint pro gun if they were they wouldnt throw a fit everytime a minority used one.

        ^^^^ this man gets it.
        I like firearms. I would qualify as “a redneck”.
        I also think you should need to go through a minimum 2 day safety, maintenance and storage training course to own one. They are a tool that you must prove you are safely capable of handling, maintaining in safe operation (no exploding barrels), and keeping secure.

          This and also lets not restrict weapons cause scarry. I fear a shotgun far more than an assault rifle in untrained hands, mostly cause it takes an afternoon to learn how to use a shotty while it takes a good bit more to use really any rifle.
