You have to wonder who Hannity thinks he was preaching to. It&#8217;s not as if there are any Democrats watching his show or looking to him for advice on who to vote for. Nevertheless, Hannity spewed the following pro-Kennedy nonsense (with relevant annotations)&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;If you are a left-wing voter, Kennedy frankly gives you all the nutty Biden, Bernie Sanders, Green New Deal, climate denial, religious cult policies&#8230;&#8221;<br \/>\n<em>[Hannity apparently thinks that he can be more persuasive by insulting the people he&#8217;s trying to persuade]<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8230;maybe without the corruption and sleaze and chaos, and he definitely knows what day of the week it is. Gotta give him credit for that. Let&#8217;s not forget, at just 70 years of age RFK Jr. is more than a decade younger than Joe Biden, and he&#8217;s more with it.&#8221;<br \/>\n<em>[There is zero evidence any corruption by Biden. And Hannity&#8217;s attacks on Biden&#8217;s mental acuity are unfounded and tiresome. What&#8217;s more, Trump is also about a decade older than Kennedy, with real cognitive defects]<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He also supports affirmative action. He cut ads for the likes of Al Gore. He supported Hillary Clinton. He supported Obama. He supported every Democratic presidential candidate there is. So, for conservatives that maybe like his position on COVID, OK. Now take a look at the rest of the record. We&#8217;re only giving you fact-based information here.&#8221;<br \/>\n<em>[Here is where Hannity gets to his real point. He isn&#8217;t really trying to persuade Biden voters (who aren&#8217;t watching his show) to vote for Kennedy. He&#8217;s trying to persuade Trump voters (his viewers) not to]<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Fox News\u2019 Sean Hannity is working overtime to get Democrats to vote for RFK Jr. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ShdyN6NWDj\">pic.twitter.com\/ShdyN6NWDj<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; The Recount (@therecount) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/therecount\/status\/1776283207060656151?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 5, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>All told, Kennedy would be a much better alternate choice for Trump voters.
