What are the latest and different ratings trump Vs biden vs rfk jr, and who do you think or is it considered rfk jr takes the most votes from? trump or Biden?


RFK Jr just picked a well-known far-left activist as his running mate. And his famous last name might pull some VERY low info dem-leaning voters. So all in all, I'd say he takes more votes from Biden than Trump.

Consider two types of swing voters:
Type A: left-leaning voters who are pissed off about Biden, don't want to vote for him, but absolutely cannot bring themselves to vote for Trump.
Type B: right-leaning voters who are dissatisfied with Trump, don't want to vote for him, but absolutely cannot bring themselves to vote for Biden.

I'd argue that there are far more voters of Type A than of Type B, and RFK Jr offers them an alternative.

Yes, she's the ex-wife of Google founder Sergey Brin and her estimated net worth is around $400m.
So picking her solved any funding issues RFK Jr's campaign might have had, but also missed the opportunity to position himself as a true centrist alternative.

The New York Times today released a blistering statement blasting Biden for his lack of media access:

For anyone who understands the role of the free press in a democracy, it should be troubling that President Biden has so actively and effectively avoided questions from independent journalists during his term. The president occupies the most important office in our nation, and the press plays a vital role in providing insights into his thinking and worldview, allowing the public to assess his record and hold him to account.

Mr. Biden has granted far fewer press conferences and sit-down interviews with independent journalists than virtually all of his predecessors. It is true that The Times has sought an on-the-record interview with Mr. Biden, as it has done with all presidents going back more than a century. If the president chooses not to sit down with The Times because he dislikes our independent coverage, that is his right, and we will continue to cover him fully and fairly either way.

However, in meetings with Vice President Harris and other administration officials, the publisher of The Times focused instead on a higher principle: That systematically avoiding interviews and questions from major news organizations doesn’t just undermine an important norm, it also establishes a dangerous precedent that future presidents can use to avoid scrutiny and accountability.


For how much the MSM loves to cry about Trump's alleged "violations of democratic norms" and "attempts at undermining the free press", and considering how much they ran intereference on Biden's behalf to get him into the WH, I find it hilarious how they're now admitting that Biden is guilty of very similar transgressions.
