Democrats Worst Nightmare Comes To Pass
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s recent running mate announcement has caused a stir. Experts are saying that the Democratic Party is having a major freak out over it, considering it to be the party’s worst nightmare, Fox News reported.
Two weeks ago, when Kennedy revealed that internet entrepreneur Nicole Shanahan would be his running mate, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) organized a teleconference that many saw as a sign the party was in a panic.
According to reports, Shanahan, 38, is a California lawyer and philanthropist. Shanahan is the leader of the Bia-Echo Foundation.
She founded the organization to direct money toward women’s reproductive science, criminal justice reform, and environmental causes.
Marc Lotter, former special assistant to the president and former director of strategic communications for Trump’s 2020 campaign, said the Democrats’ effort to keep Kennedy out of the Democratic primary and off the ballot as a third-party candidate is at odds with the party’s claim of protecting democracy.
“So much for the party that says it is defending democracy,” Lotter said. “What Democrats are doing to FK is no different than what they are doing through the courts and radical election officials to target Donald Trump.”
David Avella, GOP strategist and GOPAC chairman, said in a statement that part of the reason Democrats are worried about Kennedy is that demographics within the Democratic Party that have been turning away from Biden are moving towards Kennedy’s positions.
Mark Keelen, a Republican strategist and The Vogel Group principal pointed out how the Biden administration’s denial of Secret Service protection to RFK Jr. is seen as another sign of how the Democratic Party is distancing itself from him.
“RFK jr was run out of the party by the DNC that rigged yet another primary election – see 2016 – for Hillary, 2020 for Joe, 2024 for Joe again,” Keelen said. “President Biden and his team have also acted shamefully in not granting Secret Service protection to Kennedy despite growing threats and the fact that madmen slew both of his relatives. Unbelievable.”
