In light of Kennedy dropping out, just wanted to share a choice quote when he was asked whether he assaulted his children's baby sitter in the 90s
"I am not a church boy. I had a very, very rambunctious youth. I said in my announcement speech that I have so many skeletons in my closet that if they could all vote, I could run for king of the world."

Don't forget he's like 70 years old. And in the 90s he'd be around 35-45. "Youth," my ass.
Him endorsing Trump also surprised his own family, too.

He's a Kennedy, of course his family is disappointed in him for backing Trump - they are all liberal and progressive
I wouldn't really call it a surprise tho, seems RFK Jr is sort of a family pariah

Nah he's not popular enough to be the Republican candidate, and running as a spoiler candidate again obviously won't work. When Trump loses, they'll get desperate and run someone like Aaron Rodgers next time around.
RFK endorsed Trump in hopes of a cabinet position. Well, he isn't going to get a cabinet position because Trump isn't going to have a cabinet because he is going to lose. Only now, in addition to having no cabinet position, RFK is going to be in the history books as a Trump supporter. I hope he enjoys his legacy as a stain on the family name.
Trump always stabs people in the back due to his paranoia and unwillingness to tolerate people who he thinks are getting more attention than him. Similar to RFK Jr, Mitt Romney attempted to sell Trump his endorsement back in 2016 in exchange for making him Secretary of State. He got snubbed, and Romney has been butthurt ever since. Likewise, the Cheney family were initially receptive of Trump and actually agree with his policies (albeit saying he should start more wars), turning against him when Trump began personally attacking Dick Cheney. Trump went through a ton of staff members during his term, stabbing them in the back whenever he started viewing them as a threat or if they weren't obsessively fellating him hard enough. This comic exists for a reason-
If Trump did promise RFK a position in his administration, I would venture a prediction that he'll either go back on his word entirely or let him in for a short period before firing him. They won't remain allies either way.

I have been feeling pretty normal. I am stooped after stream-playing Metroid Zero Mission and now I am just doing whatever right now. -

I have plans to finish the rest of the Metroid Series, and originally I was going to play NESTroid as it's the first one but it's too hard.

@DragonMals, Zero Mission is a remake of nestroid so atleast you might be familiar with the map layout or idk
-
@
DragonMals:
You might be right with that one, but NESTroid's layout is a lot different in structure than Zero Mission. Not to mention the engnie being abysmal to play as.

@DragonMals, ohkay... Also after beating Zero Mission I might play am2r (I'd play the 3ds metroid 2 remake but my 3ds is broken although I will try to repair it when I get the chance)
