I agree. It will be a net gain for Trump, but I just don't think a significant gain to really matter much. RFK is not making an impact in Michigan & Wisconsin. Not sure about Pennsylvania yet. I suspect that the staunch environmental people that were going to vote for RFK are furious/disgusted that he will endorse an anti-environment candidate like Trump. RFK lost it somewhere down the line here, or he is just as much as a grifter as Trump and was always on his side. RFK seemed quite proud of his record as an environmental lawyer. Something strange may have happened to him (the worm?). It’s odd for someone to accept and defend environmental and climate science and then turn around and endorse Trump, even for a bribe. Unless it was all a grift. It’s impossible to believe that RFK Jr. DOESN'T know that Trump and his Project 2025 buddies plan to remove each and every in-place protection for the environment and completely and dismantle the EPA.
There is a certain class of back to nature hippy types that love the environment but hate modern medicine believing that traditional herbal remedies are always better. So I could imagine that RFK turned into (or was always) one of those. But then it makes absolutely no sense for him to support Trump. From watching segments of different interviews is that RFK tailors his anti-vax views to the audience he’s talking to, moderating them for mainstream audiences and going all-out crackpot with others. That speaks to a certain amount of dishonesty/grift.
