RFK Jr. Battles Sexual Assault Allegations and Dog-Eating Misinformation Amid Controversial Campaign
  • Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. faced allegations of sexual assault from a former family babysitter, as reported by Vanity Fair.

  • RFK Jr acknowledged his troubled past, including struggles with addiction and anti-vaccine claims, but did not directly deny the accusations.

  • Kennedy also addressed claims of eating a dog, clarifying that a controversial photo actually showed him with a goat in Patagonia, not a dog in Korea, as Vanity Fair suggested.

  • Kennedy accused Vanity Fair of spreading misinformation and attempting to destroy him.

  • Despite polling at 9%, RFK Jr's independent candidacy could impact the election as a potential 'spoiler' candidate.

  • Social media has found humor in his response to the allegations, with a viral chyron reading 'RFK JR: I WOULDN'T EAT A HUMAN.'

  • Kennedy remains focused on economic issues and national concerns, with potential challenges including Biden's debate performance and third-party support.
