“What do you think of AOC’s Green New Deal? What do you think about that?” the reporter asked RFK Jr. RFK responded that he wanted market-based solutions like TAXATION.

“I, you know, I agree new deal; I think the Green Deal is, all that stuff is important, it’s good. We ought to be something, but my approach is more market-based than kind of top-down dictates, you know? I believe that we should use market mechanisms like carbon taxes and, you know, and the elimination of subsidies, and I think that those things outward transition our economy.”

We’re taxed enough, and he can keep the transition.

I will give this guy credit, he doesn’t try and obfuscate his positions to attract the middle.

This should KILL any support for him here.

Only liberal idiots think taxes are a market solution.

This is one of the stupidest comments by him I’ve heard.

He’s quite a lunatic.

Has taken some good positions.

This will draw more votes from D than Trump, so good for him.

This position alone ensures Trump’s success if RFK goes third party.

I don’t understand how anyone who calls themselves a Conservative, could even consider voting for this guy.

I knew he was a climate nut. I didn’t understand why so many conservatives were willing to support him.

I do hope he runs as an independent, because I believe it will hurt Joe Stolen more than Trump.

Thank you, RFK.

Your potential political threat to peel off Independent Trump voters just drove into a ditch.

Those darn electric cars!

The organizers of CPAC completely discredited themselves when they invited this rabid leftist to speak at their annual conference.
