Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Says That Donald Trump Could Be The Greatest President In History
POLITICUS ^ | February 23, 2017 | R. M.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the son of the late-Robert Francis "Bobby" Kennedy probably made the most shocking statement during his interview for CNN. Well, liberals will definitely be shocked, that's a sure bet.

"Donald Trump could be the greatest president in history if he wanted to, he could easily be the next Teddy Roosevelt."

Is this a clear sign of admiration or what?

"Well, I think Donald Trump can be, you know, any kind of president he wants. He’s actually — he has this extraordinary opportunity because he's coming into office less burdened by obligation than probably any president in our history with the possible exception of Andrew Jackson," Kennedy continued.

"And you know, both of them, Jackson and Trump came in, they were — people were sickened, they were outraged when Jackson came in and they thought it was the end of the world and he became a — unless you were an American-Indian, he became a very good president in defending the country against corporate power and really democratizing America in many ways."

"Trump does not have obligations, he could really be an extraordinary president."

It’s just getting better.

"You know, I think he can do anything he wants because he is not — he is not bound by ideology. He is less bound by ideology than any president probably that we've had this century."

"He said to Leonardo DiCaprio the other day that he wanted to be the next Teddy Roosevelt, and he can easily do that."

"I think he can be any kind of president he wants. I think he could be the greatest president in history if he wanted to."

This is probably the most amazing statement so far, and it's pleasing to see that it comes from such an important person.

Agreed. Washington gave up power during a time of Kings. He could have been President for life, but wanted to go back to his beloved Mount Vernon. As for President Trump, I think he’ll finish a VERY close second.

I liked her reactions to Trump speech while he was giving it. Never standing up, even when he mentioned jobs, and scowling, it’s was beautiful. It showed the American people clearly and completely that Democraps do not give one rats ass about them.

Trump, like Kennedy was, is tremendously wealthy. That means, unlike so many politicians, he cannot really be bought.

Some get extremely rich being bought out by others.

Failed logic

To not be "bought out" you have to be morally sound.

Money and wealth do not have one iota of a impact upon whether you would be bought out by another.

Morals is what matters and that is what is lacking inside the beltway and with elected officials.

But only if he bans vaccinations, right?

Kennedy is seeking attention and has his own agenda. If you want to know who he is, look at his voting record.

They’re not listening. They see a Kennedy and hear a Democrat.

The left likes powerful leaders regardless of their ideology. It is a fetish thing with them. Even if Trump is looked at as a right winger they dig his style.

The liberals will be looking to give Bobby J a new set of cement shoes shortly.

“......Donald Trump Could Be The Greatest President In History”.........

The key word is “could”, the unfortunate part is that the media and liberals are hell bent on keeping him from achieving any such thing. I vision the media and liberals as “obstructionists”, pure and simple.

It's not about vaccination. That's a false flag. The issue is about the specific formulation of vaccines, particularly multi-vaccines, as well as the immunization schedule, which has expanded enormously since it was first introduced in 1948.

Infancy and early childhood is a period of critical and massive neurological development. The wisdom of bombarding children's bodies with ever-increasing numbers of vaccines and their associated adjuvants during this critical development window is the issue.

The autism/vaccine issue..I am very happy to see this discussed. I think Kennedy means what he says.

So am I. We have a son with autism, high functioning, but just out of the blue. As a health care provider, I’ve just never seen so many kids with neuro and behavioral disorders ever.

Yep.

Our older daughter, now 29, had 11 vaccines before the age of 5. Now they get 22, or some such number. And they keep adding more!

I don’t see why people are bashing this. Seems like an accurate analysis to me.

I agree.

“I don’t see why people are bashing this. Seems like an accurate analysis to me.”

Maybe because “If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is”.

The left is always trying something slick. A Kennedy interview for CNN? It’s a double whammy in the questionable department.

This morning Fox News played a medley of CNN and MSNBC financial “so called experts” predicting a huge stock market crash in the unlikely event that Trump was elected president!!!!

Loved it...

RFK, Jr. is a dangerous leftist nut. Don’t trust anything he says or does. In this case he is just sucking up to Pres. Trump to try to win influence for his pet causes.

“They all hate trump. They are attemping to build him up so they can destroy him”

Yeah, something is definitely up with these libs doing a 360 all of a sudden. I am very uncomfortable with accolades coming from a leftist a-hole like RFKjr. I don’t trust these people as far as I can throw Sotomayor!
