RFK Jr. Says Democrats Oppose Him Because ANYTHING Trump Decides Has to Be Vilified
As Twitchy has been reporting, President Donald Trump’s nominee for Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., has faced down a lot of hysterical Democratic senators at his confirmation hearing Wednesday. Sen. Elizabeth Warren had a full-blown meltdown, while Sen. Bernie Sanders demanded repeatedly, “ARE YOU SUPPORTIVE OF THESE ONSIES?”
Democrats are really loaded for bear, but it was just a couple of years ago that Kennedy announced he was running for the Democratic nomination for president. The Dems drummed him out of their party, and he instead ran as an independent before endorsing Trump.
Kennedy theorized that most of the resistance to his confirmation came from Democrats who just can’t abide anything Trump does. Trump is nominating a former Democrat, and the Democrats are not having it.
RFK JR: “There’s no such thing as Republican children or Democratic children. These are our kids. 66% of them are damaged … And all these Democrats are opposed to me for partisan issues. They used to be my friends, agreed with me on all the environmental issues I’ve been… pic.twitter.com/CDyOlzjmDN

… on all the environmental issues I’ve been working on for my whole career. Now they’re against me because anything that President Trump does, any decision he makes, has to be lampooned, derided, discredited, marginalized, vilified.”
Kennedy nailed it. Despite being a lifelong Democrat, he crossed the line by working with Trump, which means that he must be destroyed. Democratic senators would have grilled anyone Trump had nominated for the position, but as Kennedy says, they used to be his friends.

There was absolutely nothing incorrect in that statement

Partisanship is a large part of their resistance, so also is the political capture due to contributions. We Republicans didn’t side with @RobertKennedyJr because we agree with him politically. We sided with him because on health issues, he’s right.

Best synopsis of the situation ever given.

Some are afraid to leave the cult of the left because of how they will be treated.

Isn’t that the truth? As we said above, Democrats would have gone into hysterics no matter who Trump had nominated because, as Kennedy said, anything Trump does “has to be lampooned, derided, discredited, marginalized, vilified.”
