Political assassination in inherently irrational. Suggesting that Nikki Haley, Lindsey Graham, or Mike Pompeo were involved is "we didn't go to the moon" level delusion, my friend.


They got 99% of the way to killing him. Trump’s survival is nothing short of a miracle, and who benefits most from Trump’s death? It’s not Joe Biden or Kamala Harris, it’s Nikki Haley, as well as the weapons manufacturers and the intelligence agencies.

Plus under Trump, their ultimate fear of RFK is likely to be a member of his administration, several positions of which he can frick them over. So it’s as much to prevent Trump from sniffing the White House as it is RFK sniffing a cabinet position.

Damn… these speeches are gut wrenching. DEMs are turning to dust.

This lady is far more genuine. She's reading a script, but not holding it together.

She is and I don't hate her as much as others. I just said I would stop complaining about it so I didn't want to comment.

To be fair, she was probably terrified, too

My younger cousin died of fetanyl overdose a couple years ago. Went through depression after his girlfriend died where she was hit by a drunk driver. The drug war is real for millions of people. This stuff holds weight.

These are regular folks, not professional politicians and speakers. Give them a level of respect in how they speak.

Her emotion was real, and I felt for her at parts of that.

These testimonials are a bit too stage managed and exploitative for my personal taste, but I don't fault any of these people for doing them. They aren't professional speakers and likely have never done anything like this before. I would bet that almost none of us could get up there and look polished in this type of environment, much less if we were talking about a deeply personal tragedy.

Man, there is a strong bench behind Trump…Vivek, Desantis, Vance, etc….question…if they all get cabinet seats, anyone concerned with who would follow in their current positions?

Ok, now I get why these 2 are speaking. I'm going to guess, without looking it up, that the next speaker is also a family member of a victim of an illegal immigrant murder or other violent crime.

You want to win over the white woman vote? This is how you do it. She did a fine job getting her emotional point across.
