Robert F Kennedy Jr, the third-party candidate for US president, said a health problem he experienced in 2010 “was caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died”

The paper also said Kennedy’s spokesperson, Stefanie Spear, responded to a question about whether the candidate’s health problems could compromise his fitness to be president by saying: “That is a hilarious suggestion, given the competition.”
yeah, this 70 year old is just soooo far removed age-wise from the 2 candidates for it to be ‘hilarious’…
Poor lil guy starved to death.
I was wondering when these little guys would make an appearance lmao
Explains so much.
My heart goes out to the poor brain worm.
I know, right? Frankly, I’d rather the worm lived. It would make a better candidate.
Just imagine finding yourself in this miasma of toxic sludge. The poor thing!
It ate his brain and died.
Kennedy/Shanahan 2024, I guess.
Why is this world the way that it is? I feel like the world used to make some kind of sense. Now everything just feels like poorly written fanfic. I know it’s absolute bunk but the LHC transporting us to an alternate timeline is the only thing that even attempts to explain how weird everything is now.
This helped me start to understand:
“HyperNormalisation is a 2016 BBC documentary by British filmmaker Adam Curtis. It argues that governments, financiers, and technological utopians have, since the 1970s, given up on trying to model the complex “real world” and instead established a simplified “fake world” for the benefit of corporations and kept stable by neoliberal governments around the world. The film was released on 16 October 2016 on BBC iPlayer.”
I had not heard of this, but it sounds fascinating, and now I want to check it out. Thanks for posting about it!
I’ve watched nearly all of his documentaries, I can’t recommend them enough.
Was it dead because it starved to death?
This is just absolutely wild in so many ways
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Robert F Kennedy Jr, the third-party candidate for US president, said a health problem he experienced in 2010 “was caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died”, the New York Times reported.
Two years before the deposition, the paper said, Kennedy experienced “memory loss and mental fogginess so severe that a friend grew concerned he might have a brain tumour”.
The paper also said Kennedy’s spokesperson, Stefanie Spear, responded to a question about whether the candidate’s health problems could compromise his fitness to be president by saying: “That is a hilarious suggestion, given the competition.”
Now 70, Kennedy has suffered other issues including a heart problem for which he has been repeatedly hospitalised and spasmodic dysphonia, a neurological condition that affects his voice.
Nonetheless, the scion of a famous political clan – his father was the US attorney general and New York senator Robert F Kennedy, his uncle John F Kennedy, the 35th president – has focused on showing off his physical fitness in contrast to that of Joe Biden, the oldest president ever elected, now 81, and Donald Trump, the 77-year-old Republican challenger.
Observers on the left and right of US politics fear Kennedy’s campaign, which leans into his prominence as a Covid vaccine conspiracy theorist and other outsider positions, could siphon key votes from both Biden and Trump – candidates with whom the public is largely dissatisfied.
The original article contains 746 words, the summary contains 239 words. Saved 68%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Yeah, but what happened to his voice?
"The causes aren’t clear, but one study found that 65% of people with the condition previously had measles or mumps – compared with the US national average of 15%.
A separate study found the measles and mumps vaccines helped protect against developing the condition. An interesting finding, if confirmed, given that RFK Jr. is a noted vaccine sceptic."
Isn’t a vaccine given at birth for exactly that?
Sorry, you already used up your “one google search per poster” credit.
