Why is this guy even running? Who does he even appeal too?
He's running so that he can become a third party candidate and bleed of D votes in the general.
Cornell West already doing his best at that as well.
I think West is doing it for different reasons though. There are a lot of people on the left who are absolutely frustrated watching their rights disappear under a Dem government that refuses to play hardball under a misguided and frankly, privileged sense of decorum. RJK is clearly being funded by right wing clowns to act as a spoiler.
