      Except he’s a democrat. Democrats aren’t immune to weirdo conservatives

        He didn’t run in the Democratic primary because while Democrats can be weird, Democratic voters, including the rest of the Kennedy family, tend to reject this kind of weird.

              All cats are theocrats, but they are also each the god of the ruling religion. Keeps everything simple. No voting, no polling, just endless worship.

            Your cat is probably secretly accepting tuna juice from the communists down the street.

          That’s true, but only as of like a year ago. He was a Democrat for like 50 years. Doesn’t make this (or him) any less reprehensible and bat-shit crazy. I, for one, am glad he changed to an independent party affiliation.

            Well, when he was a private citizen he was free to identify with whatever party he chose. But once he starting putting forward his candidacy it became quite clear that his form of politics was not in line with the party in several important ways. So it’s not as if he was a normal democrat for that period and abruptly changed. His differences became clear as soon as he was subject to public scrutiny.

            But I would agree that he’s more a part of the political left than the right.

        Which is why he wants a spot in Trump’s cabinet in exchange for an endorsement?
