Three-Way?

Guest Post by Jim Kunstler

“Intents have been overtaken by events.”Jacob Dreizin

You have to wonder what took Bobby Kennedy, Jr. so long to recognize that the Democratic Party was a home that he had long ago been turned out of, like a dog that has peed on the carpet too many times. At the end of last week, Mr. Kennedy intimated that he might run for president on an independent line. If he manages to get that line on the state ballots — and you can easily imagine New York and California trying to thwart him — it will change all the current calculations about the 2024 election.

As of right now, the Party of Chaos is living up to its name. They continue to present an obviously false and ridiculous consensus among themselves that “Joe Biden” is running for reelection. In fact, “the Big Guy” is about to get run through a wringer of the most abject public disgrace as his already-well-known crimes of bribery and treason get conscientiously laid out for all to see with cold and implacable decorum. Even the mind-fucked spawn of the Ivy League, toiling away on their CIA-owned newspapers and cable news networks, might find themselves forced to spin their narrative in a new direction.

“Joe Biden” is now a monumental embarrassment and a liability to our country, let alone to the degenerate party that owns him. Sub rosa efforts must be in motion to persuade him to resign before the impeachment inquiry spotlights all those telltale bank records, but they will fail to overcome his demented pride. He’ll ride this thing out to the bitter end, when he can use the last tool at his disposal to officially pardon everyone involved in his family’s racketeering operation. The longer the party pretends to support him, the closer the party itself skates toward self-destruction. Also consider: if allowed to play out, the impeachment inquiry will implicate the DOJ and the FBI in obstruction of justice — exposing many Deep State blob players to danger of prosecution.

Gov Gavin Newsom dangles himself above the fray as the deus ex machina who can touch down in DC and make all the Democrat’s problems go away. Such an attractive fellow! Great teeth and hair! Tall as a sequoia! And such a smooth talker! The woked-up suburban ladies who comprise the party’s main voting bloc grow moist in anticipation of Gov. Newsome landing on-stage like a demigod out of a Mozart opera. But how do you think he’ll make out in an election when the airwaves are filled with oppo ads showing his toothy and hairy visage inset against scenes of homeless junkies and looting flash mobs? Try blaming that on climate change. What else does he stand for? Censorship? Forced vaccinations? Child sex mutilations? Open borders? News-flash: these are increasingly unpopular, except among an easily-identified depraved elite.

Indeed, the whole Left-Right demon-driven psychodrama is proving impossible to live in as it throbs and pulsates toward something like civil war. And it has obscured the truly potent idea that the nation might actually be capable of solving its problems by facing up to them and changing how we act. That potent idea might be what voters will see in Bobby Kennedy if he can get their attention. Mr. Kennedy would dismantle the heinous partnerships between private corporations and the US government that loosed the Covid-19 op on the world and asset-strips the middle-class. He favors closing the border and a reevalution of immigration policy. He aims to negotiate an end to the ignoble Ukraine war project. He’s determined to disassemble the security state apparatus that’s destroying the US Constitution and citizens natural rights with it.

Mr. Kennedy says he can bring divided Americans together on these dire matters. It’s conceivable that his message might go over with enough rancor-weary voters to pull off a tour-de-force plurality in a three-way race, where nobody wins enough electoral votes to settle the contest, which then moves to the House, like in the old days of Jefferson and Burr. The rest is election mechanics, some of it very sinister when you consider all the election-rigging booby-traps already in-place such as mass mail-in ballot harvesting, no voter ID requirements, and the still-mysterious hookups of vote-counting machines to the Internet. But, at least, Mr. Kennedy running on an independent line will be a hard whap upside the Democratic Party’s thick skull, maybe even a death-blow to the party. They made a big mistake trying to un-person him. He’s on a hero’s journey at a moment in history when America dearly needs one.

As an Independent candidate, Mr Kennedy will only make one significant contribution to American political theater. He will convince the entire world, after he siphons off a major portion of the Donkeycrat vote, that 5 Eyes ‘installed’ Big Mike as POTUS.

Nothing says, “We control You!” better than Bathhouse Barry as America’s 2nd First Faggot.

Deep down, he is still a liberal Kennedy democrat and his main source of income for many years was the environment. I also believe he is not a supporter of the 2A and sees too many guns as the problem, rather than too many hoodlums.

Three-way indeed. I can definitely see a no majority votes election ( IF there is one ) no matter who is running and then it goes into a room of evil cigar smokers and THEY will decide. I am presently under the impression that it doesn’t really matter who the next Director of Public Relations is.
Either way we are all screwed.
It was fun while it lasted.

Jim’s had a slobbery man-crush on RFK Jr. since day one.
He also thinks that all those that deserve to be punished for the shit show going on now will be brought to justice and….punished. Not gonna’ happen Jim. He also predicted the end of the world because of Y2K.
Other than these things I like Kunstler and have been reading his blog since 1998 and listening to his pod casts, which are way more interesting and informative.

I have often wondered how people can believe that a candidate could do what he promised once he is elected. A president is only allowed to rule by executive order if the actual controllers of the federal government approve. The things that Bobby jr would do if elected are being listed by JHKuntsler as things we can expect of him, when all we can expect of any president is more talk.

Talk: that’s really all a president is allowed by the PTB to do, and that is limited as well. We can watch the TV news medium to learn “what it is” as the mafia says according to the author of “The Irishman” screenplay. It’s as though the American people are going to be told by TV news outlets what it is.

“Joe Biden is now a monumental embarrassment and a liability to our country . . .”

That is the main reason he was selected to win in 2020. The NWO isn’t content with just destroying the U.S. as part of its plan to bring in their One World Government, they want to make a mockery of it also. But Biden won’t be selected again in 2024. They are moving on to the next phase of their Agenda 2030 plan which requires Trump to be in office again.

Nope. It will be Big Mike for the victory and Barry Soetoro will have succeeded in “fundamentally transforming” America to a communist state.

I think you’re right. It’s the “conservatives” that need fed.gov attention next time around. TLPTB will let lose the dems of war to rape, burn and pillage their way through middle America while Trump instructs his followers to not retaliate. The fundamental transformation will continue apace.

Kennedy will get the “what do I have to lose” vote, which is an increasingly large segment of the electorate. If he ever debates Newsom, Kennedy will win going away. Kennedy has the advantage of being smart, and Newsom is dumb as a post.

Trump is the designated winner for 2024. RFK Jr is running as an independent to draw votes away from Biden, which will make it easier to steal the election for Trump. (Although RFK Jr himself probably doesn’t realize that, but his handlers/advisors do.)

They can use RFK to plausibly throw the election either way. I think you are correct, but TLPTB never invite me to their meetings.

Still awaiting a meaningful article that clearly proves another Obama is willing to depart the lavish lifestyle to occupy the White House.
Jr’s being on a “Hero’s moment” bodes very poorly in regards to the populace once again awaiting a “Savior”.
That will make a trifecta of Saviors starting with o Bama to Trump to Kennedy.
NOT a good sign.
I pine for Kennedy’s election ( hardly realistic in so far as who counts the votes) at least for the good swift kick in the nuts to the “other Saviors” and their partys as Knustler implies.
Better to pine for a good old fashioned lesson in Civics 101 for the country.

Don’t trust any Democrat, even if reborn as an Independent. Unfortunately JHK has switched sides, again, and is placing his hopes on a Kennedy who supports the environmental and climate change agenda of left wing zealots. Not good for America or the world. Vote Trump. He deserves it.

I have said before, if he doesn’t commit to running as an independent, nobody should send one penny for his campaign. The Democrats will screw him out of the nomination and he would have to be a complete idiot to not know that. Especially after seeing what they are doing to keep Trump off of the ballot.

Q “What happens when a single party system pretending to be a two party system adds a third party?”

A “All the dupes vote for the system’s rare “option C” not realizing they are still choosing the broken system.”
