With reports of Joe Biden being expected to drop out of the race in the coming days, it's time to say it.
Democrats, if you really want to beat Donald Trump, you have to nominate Robert Kennedy Jr.
Before you scroll away, hear me out.
You may not like RFK Jr. very much, and though I would assert that is likely due to misinformation, that is not the point.
The point is that in a head-to-head match, the polling shows that Kennedy would be the strongest candidate by far to beat Donald Trump. If you actually want to beat Trump, he is your best bet.
There are only two candidates who have consistently beaten Trump in several head-to-head polls: Michelle Obama and Robert Kennedy Jr.
However, Michelle Obama's office has stated, "As former First Lady Michelle Obama has expressed several times over the years, she will not be running for president."
That said, that only leaves one option to ensure beating Trump: Kennedy.
A recent poll shows that in a head-to-head match, Kennedy beats Trump by a whopping 14%.
Meanwhile, all other Democrats are typically about tied or lose to Trump. No poll since July 12 has shown a Democrat beating Trump.
Keep in mind as well that in the past two elections, Trump's results were better than how he actually polled, even when he lost in 2020, so Democrats should also be prepared for that.
Democrats have to decide if they want to win or not, because even if they aren't the biggest fans of Kennedy, he is the only one who polls have consistently shown beating Donald Trump and is willing to run.
If you choose Kennedy, polling shows you are very likely to secure a very comfortable win by a large margin and block Donald Trump from winning the 2024 presidential election.
If you don't, you will have to fight a very, very tight race, with polls showing none of the other options beating Donald Trump, likely giving him another four years in the White House.
