For me, I don't think he has a chance (because basically only regime-approved candidates do), but I'd be happy in the impossible case that he defeated Biden, because he seems like a decent fellow if a bit naive sometimes.

I respect RFK Jr for fighting hard against the COVID vaxxes.
I don't agree with him on his positions on climate change and gun control.
In a hypothetical general election between RFK Jr. and the GOP nominee, I will vote for the GOP nominee.
What if it were Mitt Romney or Nikki Haley?
In your crackpipe universe where it was RFK Jr. as the Dem nominee vs Romney/Haley as the GOP nominee, I would vote for RFK Jr. while voting downballot GOP.
The Dems won't let RFK Jr. get their nomination.
In reality, the GOP ticket in 2024 will be either DeSantis/Reynolds or Trump/? versus incumbent Biden.
I would vote for DeSantis/Reynolds enthusiastically if he is the nominee and I would hold my nose and begrudgingly still vote for Trump/? if he is the nominee as long as he has a few braincells remaining and he picks anyone else as VP besides Kari Lake or MTG.
Trump would guaranteed lose both North Carolina and Texas with either one of these two psychotic grifters(Lake/MTG) on the ticket,
If we are unlucky enough that Trump becomes the nominee, I pray he is smart enough to pick ANYONE else besides Kari Lake or MTG.
Obviously, it's not going to happen, but I was just wondering.
There are a lot of people who will go GOP because Sean Hannity told them, but you are anti-neocon enough to not do that.
Yes, that's very unfortunate. But I'm at least glad he's the runner-up at the moment, just like I'm glad that Trump and RDS are the top candidates in the GOP.
Trump will win if the economy is bad, he will lose if it is good. All the rest is noise.
Trump might well die because he's old and fat. Or be killed by a whackjob/the deep state. He needs someone who is solid. Not Tim Scott or Nikki Haley. Not MTG either, I agree.
In the sad timeline where Trump becomes the nominee again, objectively Trump's best choice for VP would be Lee Zeldin.
Zeldin has decent optics and he is solid on the issues. He has sucked up to Trump a lot recently so that makes me wonder.
Trump always gets horny over New York so Zeldin being from there is a major plus.
Trump's advisors claim that Trump is considering mainly women for VP.
Sadly all of the women that Trump is considering for VP are dogshit.
He is considering Kari Lake, MTG, Kristi Noem and Elise Stefanik.
Noem and Stefanik suck ass on the issues. Noem is a corporate shill and Stefanik supports mass immigration.
Meanwhile MTG and Kari Lake are so toxic that they would absolutely harm his icket significantly.
We saw from 2022, that the election is not just a referendum on the economy. If it was so, the GOP would have won the Senate.
Candidate quality doesn't matter for the Dems but it absolutely does matter for the GOP.
The Dems control the institutions so they can win with even braindead Fetterman.
GOP cannot do the same.
Lake and MTG are vastly more poisonous in suburbs and with independents than even Trump himself.
