I agree with you on the way RFK has changed, and I only become aware of his campaign activity on a random basis, I don't "follow" his work.
His rhetoric and positions have been carefully calibrated to appeal to right wing populist views - I saw a recent tweet where he said there was too much focus on carbon and climate. He does similar things on border and immigration and other issues. At the end of the Tucker interview, he talked about a dinner with Pompeo and his friends. I was reminded of the Liberty League's dinner with Smedley Butler where they sought to recruit him to lead a military insurrection to coup FDR.
BUT he was never like this which is why he immediately started at 20%! He was never ever rehearsed and now? That's ALL he is. His two greatest and most prominent assets were his honesty and integrity which now comes into serious question! His rhetoric is such BS! All he does is talk about his uncle and father which NOW does come off as exploitation! He starts telling these rambling stories - that he has told relentlessly - so much so that he stumbles remembering the lines which is what has destroyed his credibility!
I have watched him from Day One and said to all he's running for POTUS and no one believed me, until he did! Why? Because I saw the change! And now I see it again - but sadly this time it's for the worse.
He had what no one else did and now, he's nothing more than a total blur amongst all the others! His claim to fame was that he had what no one else did!!!!
