This:

“When you feed a baby, Bobby, a vaccination, there’s like 38 different vaccines. And it looks like it’s meant for a horse, not a, you know, 10 pound or 20 pound baby,” Trump said to Kennedy, echoing a claim he’s made in the past. “And then you see the baby all of a sudden starting to change radically—I’ve seen it too many times. And then you hear that it doesn’t have an impact.”

Really puts this:

Donald Trump was the dumbest goddam student I ever had.

Into the right perspective.

I mean he has to pick from the few numbers that he knows...

[-] Delusional@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah he's always been a god damned braindead moron. He never finished grade school because his father paid for him to pass. If he wasn't born into wealth, that his father got from also being a piece of shit just like his shitty son, he'd be homeless or working as a Walmart greeter because he is too dumb to do anything else.

Oops pressed delete by mistake

He is still an idiot, but 20lb babies are a possibility

1846 - Heaviest birth and longest baby

There are many stories about babies who weighed 14 lb at birth - but what about a whopping 22 lb?

That was the weight of a child born to Giantess Anna Bates (née Swan) (Canada, b. 6 August 1846; d. 5 August 1888).

Giantess Anna Bates, as her name may suggest, was a rather tall woman - 241.3 cm (7 ft 11 in) tall to be exact.

Her husband, Martin Van Buren Bates, was born on 9 November 1837 and was reported to reach 7 ft 11 in, although was probably more likely 7 ft 9 in.

She gave birth to a boy weighing 9.98 kg (22 lb) and measuring 71.12 cm (28 in) at her home in Seville, Ohio, USA, on 19 January 1879, breaking the record for both heaviest birth and longest baby.

The baby, who was not officially named but just referred to as "Babe", sadly died just 11 hours later.

Babies do start growing after they are born too so there's also that. My baby got shots when we was >20 pounds and was average weight...

[-] cybersandwich@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Yea, caused by gestational diabetes. It's probably why that baby died 11 hours later.

Outliers aren't evidence

Canadians are well known liars even if they are polite while doing so.

[-] InternetUser2012@lemmy.today 18 points 1 month ago

And his cult eats this shit up. How dumb are you to support a clown like that. It's sad.

[-] BlemboTheThird@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 month ago

Well obviously all you lightweights were just stunted by vaccines, REAL babies come out of the womb with all their teeth and a craving for beef jerky

[-] billiam0202@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

There was a wrong perspective?!?

[-] kralk@lemm.ee -1 points 1 month ago

He's trying to convince Kennedy to drop out, he's not sharing his actual views

[-] BossDj@lemm.ee 45 points 1 month ago

So the son, Bobby, who leaked the video, did so because he was upset that Trump and Vance are not antivax enough for him?

I'm confused by the motive

[-] whyalone@lemm.ee 37 points 1 month ago

Trump knows that rfk is eating his qanon base and wants rfk to concede in order to get those votes, in return if Trump wins, will probably appoint rfk to a high position in his cabinet. That's all folks.

[-] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 13 points 1 month ago

He'll be the head of the CDC

[-] whyalone@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

God No!

[-] AbidanYre@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah, that tweet definitely makes it seem like Tré is an idiot too.

[-] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 1 points 1 month ago

Also yes.

[-] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 2 points 1 month ago

Yes

[-] OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 month ago

Absolute amateur hour

[-] Zaktor@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 month ago

That's been RFK's whole campaign. He's a dilettante playing around, not someone actually trying to do politics.

[-] njm1314@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Oh boy, I mean I'm glad the kid leaked it but what I shit kid and shit reasons he had.

[-] verdantbanana@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

maybe Bobby Kennedy III should run for president

Two parties, indivisible, under Pfizer, with liberty and justice for sum.
