Americans must be fed up with his whining, hopefully they will not put up with a repeat bad loser clown as much as 2020. Does anybody know the protocol of confirming the results? It was VP Pence last time, will it be VP Harris this time confirming her own victory?

"The Vice President of the United States is the Presiding Officer of the Senate. In the Vice President's absence, the duties are taken over by a President pro tempore, elected by that body, or someone designated by the President pro tempore."
Based on this if Harris wins she will probably step back and let senate elect a President ro tempore

I am disappointed with Walz as the vice president pick. He seems like a buffoon. Dancing and raising his arms dancing with Kamala like an idiot. That and his state governing record is pretty sad.

During Biden's speech, the camera panned over to Tim many times. On almost every shot of him, Tim looked ready to burst into tears. A blubbering crybaby as V.P. is not what is needed for the position. On the other hand, he is a superior alternative to what the other side has to offer.

Does seem the way of USA politics nowadays.
Overexuberance, placard waving, cheering insanely every sentence etc etc.
Sadly the politico's and their election managers in the UK and elsewhere seem to think this is the way forwards as well. :(

Reminder: Robert F Kennedy Jr recently called Donald Trump “a terrible human being”, the “worse [sic] president ever” and “barely human” and “he is probably a sociopath,” in texts to an unnamed person. This leak was not denied by RFK.

But at least his opinion of low-energy Drumpf (real name) is more favorable than JD Vance's true assessment of the prolific crybaby sore loser-in-chief.

The endorsement is the only way for him to stay barely relevant. He tried the same arrangement with Harris and she understandably rejected him.

Yes, it's horrible what Trump and RFK, Jr want to do.

- Safe food and ending the chronic disease epidemic.
- Releasing all documents involving the JFK Assassination.
- Government regulatory agencies free from corporate corruption.
- End the Neocon grip on US foreign policy.
- No more forever wars in other countries.
- Rebuild the Industrial base and the American middle class.
- End government censorship and promote the free flow of information.
- Protect American's Freedoms against totalitarianism.

Such horrible ideas.

Strong men put aside personal differences and unite for a stronger and better America.

Five of Kennedy’s siblings put out a joint statement that in part read, "Our brother Bobby’s decision to endorse Trump today is a betrayal of the values that our father and our family hold most dear. It is a sad ending to a sad story.”

And RFK Jr. himself knows that is father and uncle are rolling over in their graves right now. He knows he made a deal with the devil. It is fitting and humiliating at the same time that until today Trump never uttered the words "chronic disease" publicly in all these years. Instead Trump is known for regularly eating fast food and doing no exercise whatsoever. He is morbidly obese and has to wear to girdle and huge shoulder pads to hide it. And let's not forget felon Trump is the guy who took credit for the Covid vaccines!! lol

The Kennedys
Despite their family's checkered past and the horrible behavior of so many of the male Kennedys, Americans stood by them out of loyalty, sentimentality and even grief.

Despite the questionable way in which the family achieved their wealth, how they treated Marilyn Monroe, the womanizing, the rape allegations, and how Mary Jo Kopechne was abandoned in death, the Kennedys remained loyal and protective of all of their family members who have taken part in some of these most heinous and appalling behaviors.

But here, as RFK, Jr acts on his conscience for his country and gives up his campaign, the Kennedys throw him under the bus and condemn him publicly. Cognitive dissonance is a Kennedy affliction, and the world is seeing it in real time.

Never a word from the Kennedys about the trail of abused and abandoned women, but they gang up on RFK, Jr because he supports Trump and seeks to make the lives of Americans better. He tried to meet with Kamala. She refused. Democrats filed suit against RFK, Jr at every turn to keep him off the ballot in many states. Biden denied him Secret Service protection until after the Trump assassination attempt.

The economic destruction of American families is something the Kennedys don't seem to understand. They are not worried about having enough necessities to get by each day. The Kennedys are all about their "civil rights" work and public service virtue signaling.

The current condition of the United States should shock everyone; and it shocked RFK, Jr enough to seek a remedy through Trump -- since Democrats wouldn't allow his support.

Americans who love America are happy to see RFK, Jr join forces with them.

His backing Trump tells us what a miserable choice Kamala would be. Trump appears to be the best of the two choices.

His backing Trump tells me that Trump has promised him a job.

Good luck with that.

Whereas Harris quite responsibly told him to go beg elsewhere (or something along those lines).

His backing of Trump is true to form. A well documented conspiracy theorists, full of very silly viewpoints about a wide range of subjects including vaccinations. An erstwhile, voluable critic of Trump, now this backflip.

The guy is an erratic outlier in the political landscape and could never be seriously listened to.

Despite the questionable way in which the Trumps achieved their wealth, how they treated (plug in numerous female names here), the womanizing, the rape allegations, and how Fred Trump III was encouraged to abandon his son quoting Trump "you should just let him die", the Declans of the world remained loyal and protective in all the heinous and appalling behaviors.

It is astounding that a Trump supporter would want to talk about womanizing and heinous and appalling behaviors. That is how disconnected from reality those in the cult truly are!

Hat tip to the original contributor of his image. It describes the Katholic Kennedys perfectly. Protected family members from crime. Attacked a family member for wanting to improve his country.
