RFK Tells CNN That Biden Is ‘Completely’ A Larger Menace To Democracy Than Trump

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (RFK) stunned Erin Burnett, host of CNN’s Outnumbered, by taking a query about Donald Trump being an “evil” menace to democracy and suggesting President Biden, in actuality, is way “worse.”

“Do you actually consider that when folks discuss in regards to the menace to democracy that Trump poses, do you actually suppose that that’s an equal evil to Biden?” Burnett questions in the course of the look on Monday.

“Pay attention,” RFK replies. “I could make the argument that President Biden is a a lot worse menace to democracy.”

Burnett’s argument that ‘folks discuss in regards to the menace to democracy’? That’s virtually solely on legacy media retailers.

You’ll notice Burnett frames the query as if it’s a bygone conclusion that Trump is evil. Trump is a menace. And Kennedy probably equating Biden to him is a fringe conspiracy principle (‘Do you actually suppose?’).

Media Bias 101. Framing the argument.

RFK Argues Biden Has Used The Federal Authorities To Censor His Opponents

Whereas Burnett’s head most likely got here near popping clear off her physique on the notion that RFK may argue Biden is the larger menace to democracy, he rigorously defined his reasoning for the assertion.

The President, he states, has weaponized the federal authorities towards his political opponents. And he’s finished so within the type of censorship of opposing viewpoints.

“And the rationale for that’s President Biden is the primary candidate in historical past, the primary president in historical past that has used the federal businesses to censor political speech or censor his opponent,” RFK elucidates.

RFK went on to inform the CNN host that censorship is much worse than questioning the legitimacy of an election.

“The best menace to democracy shouldn’t be anyone who questions election returns however a president of the USA who will use the facility of his workplace to power the social media firms Fb, Instagram, Twitter, to open a portal and provides entry to that portal to the FBI, CIA, the IRS, the NIH, to censor his political critics,” he mentioned.

‘Completely’ A Larger Menace

Burnett is seemingly beside herself that RFK would recommend such a factor. So she asks for clarification.

As a result of it’s simply so exhausting for her to consider.

“To be clear, you’re saying you may make an argument that President Biden is worse for our democracy than Donald Trump?” she questions.

With out hesitation, RFK fires again, “Completely.”

Say what you’ll about him, Kennedy’s interview with Burnett is a masterclass in find out how to deal with a biased media supply. He takes the narrative given to him and turns it on its head.

Burnett repeatedly pushes RFK on the matter. She should persuade him that Trump is the larger menace. It doesn’t work.

This proper right here is why Kennedy is constantly portrayed as an unhinged conspiracy theorist. The media wants you to consider Trump is the menace, however RFK says in any other case. When it got here to compelled COVID vaccines, the media wanted you to consider them, anyone else was deemed a lunatic.

Each Trump and Biden have been attempting to distance themselves from RFK for numerous causes. Trump has repeatedly identified that whereas he has moments of readability, Kennedy remains to be a far-left Democrat by any commonplace.

Polls are displaying the Kennedy identify is having a adverse impact on Biden. Democrat voters are being pulled away by his working as an Impartial.
