  • The DNC MUST allow debates. It’s disgusting to think this isn’t a big deal
  • Well done for having Robert Kennedy Jr. on. Please keep giving him airtime. This is the first time I have watched CNN for a long time.
  • @ashweezy
    "The networks censored me including this network..." Called them out directly. Good job RFK. Thankful for your service, Sir.
  • I just might vote for this Man- he’s absolutely correct. I’m a Conservative but care more about our Country than party.
  • @BigmanBrando
    I’m glad he stood up for himself. That’s the kind of person we need right now
  • @cnedwick
    I’m a republican and a different with him on many issues, but I have to say he is a breath of fresh air and his sincerity, honesty, intelligence and love for America is very apparent. I wish him luck.
  • @lherz13
    100% voting for RFK. It makes me so sad that he has been censored and treated so horribly for so long. Thank God he's finally being given platforms to set the record straight. . Team Kennedy 2024 ❤🤍💙

    holy smokes, I always thought his voice was messed up from doing drugs or something, but if you listen to him you realize that there is an incredibly articulate man struggling with a speech disorder to deliver what so desperately needs to be said. I haven't heard a politician talk with this much conviction and clarity since bernie sanders.
  • @nickcrider4309
    The way he handles these questions is the exact reason we need someone like him in the oval office.
  • I am Jewish and I do not think the “Anne Frank” comment was offensive. His point was that modern technology has created conditions for an authoritarian regime that no one can escape or hide from, unlike previous authoritarian regimes that lacked such technology. He was clearly not saying that the Covid lockdowns were as bad as the holocaust. If he said that, I definitely wouldn’t vote for him — but he’s got my vote for now. Sad to see the media trying to manipulate people with poor comprehension skills into thinking he said something that he never said. But I wouldn’t expect anything less from the mainstream media.

    It's amazing when you read the comments of any of the RFK interviews how resoundingly positive they all are. This is rare on YouTube. We are so hungry for authenticity. Onwards and upwards for RFK. He is the real deal!
  • @ncorp2668
    That reaction at his announcement where he said "this is what happens when you censor someone for 18 years"...the reaction by the crowd was palpable. I think that's what we're all feeling and living through him saying the things we all want to say.
  • @technologic21
    I'm coming round to support him more day after day. We need someone like RFK Jr in leadership.
  • @thjbird
    Kennedy has a rare condition called spasmodic dysphonia that affects his voice.
  • @hg007
    Thank you for having him on. And letting him speak! Finally… Someone I can believe in
  • @RS-ym6fp
    I wasn't going to vote the next election because of the horrible options and felt like there was no point... but now I will support RFK JR...I would vote for him. We need someone like him right now
  • @nirradical
    I'm not a Republican, not a Democrat, but for the first time ever I am actually passionate about a presidential candidate. We need this man to save our country. P.S. I'm 43
