Dubya always said Rove was very funny. Guys in his business usually do have a sense of humor. I don't pay much attention to him these days. He's just a professional shit stirrer. His take on RFK Jr. is the standard, "He's a nut!" because that's where they want to place him. Pretend all he does is spew conspiracy theories and that he is crazy. 

The thing is if you  watch anything with Bobby actually speaking and listen to what he says, he is obviously not a nut. His primary problem is he is a lifelong Democrat that has pissed off a faction of Democrats that now will lie and slander him as often as possibly and make it impossible for any other Democrat to back him. That pretty much ends his political future and any shot at getting elected president. 

So, he's just an exorcise now in watching how our politics work. It's funny, in some ways, what they use to slander him and how they do it. The antisemite thing was a total joke they pulled on him. 102 Democrats signed off on it. Sad. Some of them Democrats we'd be much better off without. 

The other thing he does is he remains open to speaking to anyone. Which is no longer accepted in today's political landscape. If you speak to someone they use that as a indication you have joined with them and share in their beliefs or statements. You are guilty by association but being in politics, it is your job to speak to everyone whether they are awful or not. So, oddly, he does the right thing whereas so many other politicians refuse because they fear what openly saying something or listening to someone from the "other side" could do to them politically. Really, we are in upside down and backwards land here.
