They have brainwashed the right into being pro-Putin and even Sean Hannity can’t stop him. I’m too tired to go into why he’s wrong about everything so I’ll just let Evan at Wonkette explain: Legitimate Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was feeling like ending the polarization, so last night he visited Sean Hannity, where the polarization ends, for an exclusive town hall. That’s what he literally said at the end of the interview when Hannity asked him why he was running for president. He said he would end the polarization by telling the truth. SPOILER: When somebody asks you why you’re running for president, and the beginning of your answer is “I mean …” and then a long pause, you’re definitely about to tell the truth. That’s how the interview ended, so now we’ll backtrack. The meat of the interview didn’t do much to end the polarization or spread the truth, unless you’re one of the fluffers in King Putin’s court, in which case the message was exactly what you instructed your propagandists to disseminate to the useful idiots.

This is just par for the course these days. As I Xitted earlier:
