With RFK Jr. still on campaign trail, voters revisit Democrats' COVID restrictions and censorship

Presidential campaign dropout Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is not going away in the final 10 weeks of election season, and his ongoing presence could remind voters what they don't like about both major party tickets: their role in COVID-19 lockdowns.

While formally endorsing former GOP President Donald Trump and joining his 2024 presidential transition team, and RFK Jr.'s onetime running-mate Nicole Shanahan publishing a viral parody of a pharmaceutical commercial on sufferers of "Trump Derangement Syndrome," the black sheep of Camelot earlier waged high-profile fights with Trump's COVID-19 lockdown architects, especially Dr. Anthony Fauci.

But ripped Rob poses bigger problems for Democratic nominee Vice President Kamala Harris by virtue of her administration's fast and furious about-face on COVID vaccines, squelching of alternative treatments, scientifically unfounded standards for school reopening, and executive orders mandating masks on interstate travel and vaccines on 100 million workers.

"And what’s happening is [that] because of this fake news and fake science, the true scientific efforts are being harmed."

Founder Mark Zuckerberg belatedly admitted the administration "repeatedly pressured" it to censor COVID posts "including humor and satire."

Harris when running in 2020 for vice president with then-Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden trashed the integrity of Operation Warp Speed, and even suggested they wouldn't take a COVID vaccine, because it was under incumbent Trump's aegis.

Kennedy's support for Trump's election is "one of the most remarkable things" politically in recent years and a hopeful sign that a national conversation on the consequences of COVID policy can prevail over censorship, Risch said.
