Kennedy winning – Tucker Carlson
Tucker Carlson says Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is winning, because he can get his message out and his enemies cannot ignore him.
Tucker Carlson dropped his sixth episode yesterday, to say that Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is “winning.” This was a reference, not to his Presidential campaign, but to his ability to share his alternative medical message.
How Kennedy is winning
Tucker Carlson’s Episode Six appears here:
For eighteen minutes, Carlson discussed Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., his message, and the mainstream reaction to it. He began by contrasting the coverage by The New York Times of the starts of the Presidential campaigns of Kennedy and Donald J. Trump. Back in 2015, says Carlson, the NYT didn’t actually attack Trump until seventeen paragraphs in. But when Kennedy entered the Democratic primary race, the NYT led with an attack.
The attacks, of course, all follow the same theme: the nephew of one President and the son of one who tried to become another, is a threat because he promotes “dangerous misinformation” that contradicts the settled science of immunology and vaccinology.
About half of Carlson’s message concerned the latest contretemps between Kennedy and Peter J. Hotez, M.D., Ph.D. Even before then, Carlson covered the attempt by Anna Merlan at Vice to persuade different platforms to strike Kennedy’s messages. YouTube did remove Jordan Peterson’s interview with the candidate. But Spotify refused to remove Joe Rogan’s interview with the candidate – and Anna Merlan protested. Dr. Hotez, of course, took up her refrain, which prompted Rogan to challenge Hotez to debate Kennedy. Dr. Hotez refuses – and has lined up a raft of legacy media outlets who second his refusal.
That is Tucker Carlson’s main them: people won’t stop talking about Kennedy and his message; therefore he is winning.

About the Presidential campaign
Tucker Carlson wouldn’t speculate on whether Kennedy has a shot at taking the Presidential nomination away from incumbent Joe Biden. He seems to say that the candidate might be a long shot, but he has a platform, and no one can knock him off or ignore him.
In fact, Breitbart reported Monday on a Trafalgar Group poll showing a majority of Democrats want Biden to debate his latest opponent.
