@LastBref RFK Jr has appeared wherever he has been invited, including most recently on The Hill. Is Briahna Joy Gray right wing now? Or is she hereby "right adjacent" according to you? Kim Iversen as well? Does circular reasoning suddenly sound right to you? (On matters of free speech, consult Strossen, Chemerinsky, and Justin Driver.)
But more important, why shouldn't a bona fide Democrat address the working class that has been migrating to the right for two generations now, which has proven to be a true catastrophe, for them and for everyone? There was a series of articles in The New Yorker by Paige Williams taking an in-depth look at the Kyle Rittenhouse family, including his drug-addicted father (divorced from his mother) and his activist older sister, who participated in BLM demonstrations after George Floyd was murdered, and including the fact the Rittenhouse has worked full time while going to high school because they are that poor. A "left" that cannot recuperate and rehabilitate someone like that is unworthy of the name. Every European leftist knows that, intellectually and instinctively. America has no left.
