Joseph Farah wrote in his Jan. 2 WorldNetDaily column:
You are about to witness the toughest interview presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. ever faced. It was one that shouldn’t have been so hard. He’s been talking to literally everyone – even those who are likely to oppose him because they are supporting some else.
But this one was different. It was Charlie Kirk – and Kennedy knew going in that Charlie was a solid Donald Trump supporter and smart. Kirk is the is founder and president of Turning Point USA, a national student movement dedicated to identifying, organizing and empowering young people to promote the principles of free markets and limited government. He’s one of the best interviewers around.
It didn’t take long for Kirk to hit the first mark. Do you know what the first question was that froze RFK Jr. like a deer in the headlights? It was, what would you agree with Joe Biden on? No kidding. Watch it. He simply was not prepared for it.
[…]But that wasn’t the only thing that made this likely the toughest interview Kennedy has had. There was more later in the video.
Do you know when Kennedy swooned again? On a simple question. Who do you like for the Supreme Court? I’m not kidding. This time Charlie gave Kennedy a couple swings of the bat. It was embarrassing.
After about 15 or 20 seconds he said he could not ever take a stab at the question. Again, the silence was disturbing. His first response was, “I couldn’t answer that.” Later, he hedged and said, “I’m going to pick judges that reflect my values.”
“What are those values?” Kirk asked. “Because President Trump has a list. To his credit, there are 65 people. I mean, would it be more like (Elena) Kagan or Clarence Thomas?”
Kennedy responded: “I don’t know. I wouldn’t answer.”
Kennedy eventually supplied the name of Earl Warren, whom Kirk noted was chief justice of the court that “got rid of prayer in school.” Farah concluded by huffing:
Kennedy provided the name of the first activist court whose chief justice went with the majority vote on that case – 6 to 1.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is still a liberal. He may have written a good book on Tony Fauci, but he’s still a liberal.
There’s only one man who can save this nation – and his name is Donald Trump.
Farah didn’t mention that his website was one of the leading promoters of Kennedy’s presidential campaign — that is, until he stopped running as a Democrat and, thus, would no longer serve as a direct threat to President Biden’s re-election campaign (not that he was much of a threat in the first place). It was only after Kennedy switched to running as an independent that Farah and WND started being critical of Kennedy. WND had no qualms about Kennedy being a “liberal” before that because he’s a fellow anti-vaxx conspiracy theorist, as Farah conceded by touting his “good book on Tony Fauci.”
The only reason Farah is being critical of Kennedy now is, as an independent candidate, he is likely to hurt Trump more than Biden in November. That’s it.
Also, Farah didn’t explain how ruling against forced mandatory prayer in public school makes the Warren court an “activist” one, given the clear violation of church and state that was.
