In his speech on Friday, Mr. Kennedy implied that Mr. Trump had offered him a role in his second administration, dealing with health care and food and drug policy. “We’re going to reform the entire food system,” he said.

          Yeah, but that alone is a big fucking problem (I say as a Georgian, and especially one who has been trying to raise the alarm about the MAGA sabotage being perpetrated in my state). Having a spoiler candidate on the ballot only makes it even more likely that the MAGAs find some excuse to refuse to certify.
