Legal Eagle was tolerable when he was watching tv and commenting. The very first time he mentioned Trump was the end.Legal Eagle used to be a fun channel, he's really gone off the deep end.
Sooooo in other word "I only ran to take voter away from democrat". That's pretty low, he'll fit right in with the GOP.RFK Jr. suspends his presidential bid and backs Donald Trump before appearing with him at his rally
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. suspended his independent campaign for president Friday and endorsed Donald Trump.apnews.com
Kennedy said his internal polls had shown that his presence in the race would hurt Trump and help Democratic nominee Kamala Harris, though recent public polls don’t provide a clear indication that he is having an outsize impact on support for either major-party candidate.
Kennedy cited free speech, the war in Ukraine and “a war on our children” as among the reasons he would try to remove his name from the ballot in battleground states.

Has Kennedy ever revealed why he's so enamored by Trump and why the Democrats are worse then the guy who tried to overthrow democracy last time he didn't win the election? Because that's a belief that requires some serious explanation.Kennedy said his internal polls had shown that his presence in the race would hurt Trump and help Democratic nominee Kamala Harris, though recent public polls don’t provide a clear indication that he is having an outsize impact on support for either major-party candidate.

He has part of a brain, and it's been found that you only need about 10% to live a normal life.He has a brain?
I'm pretty sure the decade plus of heavy drug use from his mid-teens onwards won't have helped, either. Whilst someone can seemingly recover in the health and flexibility of youth, the damage may catches up with them in old age.Because a worm ate his brain.
Given that Kennedy's big schtick for decades was supposed to be environmentalism, it seems odd for Kennedy to throw his lot in behind the candidate who wants to burn fossil fuels to the max, can environmental regulations and would burn down a rainforest if it made him enough profit to gold plate his pen.Has Kennedy ever revealed why he's so enamored by Trump and why the Democrats are worse then the guy who tried to overthrow democracy last time he didn't win the election?

Maybe it's ego. Maybe he just wants a taste of power. Maybe he's angry the Democrats didn't give him something he thought he should have had and wanted revenge.
A fair possibility is that he got sucked into conspiracy theory and other forms of unorthodox or extreme beliefs - he's gone on about vaccines causing autism, Covid-19 stuff, etc. Such a person given a choice between a normality candidate or a fellow semi-outsider crank who also puts out anti-establishment rhetoric might think the crank looks like the more attractive option.
Good news.I watched a bit of Kennedy's concession speech and far more grotesque then I could imagine. I just expected a weird ''woe is me! the Democrats are so mean and they're killing everyone with vaxines!'' nonsense, but its so much worse. To start with you can't boast about the Kennedy family's devotion to democracy and the free world, and vowing to follow those traits while endorsing Trump, someone who tried to overthrow democracy last time he lost and who's a fierce opponent of the free world in favor of Russia.
But that's not the important part. Far more reprehensible was Kennedy spending significant time spreading direct Kremlin propaganda. You could have send Lavrov and get a less Russophilic speech. Absolute nonsense about how the west saying Ukraine is an independent country ''forced'' Russia to wage a genocidal war, and how surrendering Ukraine to the Russians is the best way forward. Not even TRUMP is as psychotically pro Putin as this. And least he cloaks those claims while scheming to betray us. No presidential candidate or anyone even vaguely loyal to their own country should behave that way on national television.
The one aspect of this I actually will...*shudder*...somewhat agree with Trump is that it is kind of a baby coup (though certainly not a violent one and there's probably a better word than Coup here but I'm not sure what it would be).Trump keeps screaming about how Harris's nomination is a "violent coup" and that Biden was "overthrown". Except... Biden is still President. He voluntarily stepped down as the nominee for the next election (despite Republican claims that he was "violently coerced"). Trump was all geared up to take on "sleepy Joe" and he doesn't have the mental capacity to adjust to taking on Harris.
And wasn't Trump demanding that Biden be impeached, anyway? Is this another situation where he wanted to get the "win" and is angry it was "stolen" from him?

It's not a coup in any meaningful sense at all.somewhat agree with Trump is that it is kind of a baby coup
Nobody has received any votes to become president: the election hasn't happened yet.Harris has received zero votes to become President.
Neither was January 6th.It's not a coup in any meaningful sense at all.
In a vacuum, you are correct. After years of Democrats saying they are fighting to save democracy from Republicans. and Republicans saying Democrats only think it's democracy when they win, pressuring out your elected candidate because it looks like he'll lose in the general feels like quite the validation of the Republican perspective.This idea that Harris is somehow illegitimate because she wasn't selected as candidate through normal procedure is more a weird fabrication of a complaint than a good one.
