For weeks, rumors swirled about RFK Jr.'s potential running mate. Would it be Aaron Rodgers or Tony Robbins? Michael Kosta traveled to Oakland, where RFK Jr. finally announced mega-donor tech billionaire and surfer Nicole Shanahan as his VP pick. But Jr.'s supporters seem just as unsure about Shanahan as they are about vaccines. #DailyShow #RFKJr #Comedy

    These people seemed normal when compared to Trump fans, just the fact that they didn't have a strong opinion on someone they don't know and felt they needed to read up on, feels quite refreshing.
  • @mattedking0795
    This little hit job is pathetic. They need to give him a uncut interview
  • Honestly, I respect them for not pretending to know. It's nice to see people being humble, it's a nice change of pace.
  • @tvanbroekhoven
    Healthy soil and regenerative agriculture. Well, not against that.
  • @schwabdizzle
    It's sad we live in a country that mocks an attempt to give people more choice. Whether you like or dislike RFK Jr., more choice is beneficial for everyone.
  • @Adam.Langton
    Well, to be fair, his reasons for his VP pick, which is more or less to make America healthier, is a lot more rationale than literally anything trump has ever said about anything, ever.
  • @ayyyizme
    I respect them for their neutral response to the pick. They didn't blindly support it, blindly hate it, they just admitted they didn't know how to feel.
  • @bryce2939
    He picked a vp that shares his values. Who cares if she is an unknown. We don’t need more entrenched politicians.
  • Why is she being minimalized? I read she was a fellow for Stanford Law School and is an attorney.
  • @joshjones8127
    Jokes aside, our food quality and our health crisis are directly linked. The angle he was going for is being a proponent of increasing our phyaical wellness, which I think is something we can all get behind
  • @ascheuring1
    Yeah let’s make fun of the guy trying to bring people together
  • @jackeblen4127
    Sad to see Daily show putting this vibe out toward RFK jr trying to making him seem not legitimate. Hes the most genuine candidate by far
  • His supporters sound thoughtful, intelligent and kind. A very different crowd from the maga crowd.
  • @majinraptor
    I dont get the RFK hate. What did he say that was so wrong? He wants America to be healthy. I'm all for jokes but this was pretty lame.
  • @stevehesh4993
    Have RFK Jr on instead of putting words in his mouth. You should be ashamed of yourselves for this cowardly hit piece.
  • Still waiting for Jon Stewart to interview RFK Jr. Live and uncut of course
  • @andrewsteed6094
    Okay, as much as I may not agree with them, I do have to appreciate how willing a lot of them were to say that they don't know rather than rambling about something they know nothing about
  • @234wq
    He seems actually more reasonable than I thought. Maybe time to support a 3rd party instead of the same old red vs blue fog
  • @DevineAbyss
    You have to admit, RFK's supporters are WAY more reflected than people at "other rallys"! They actually think about their answers and the answers shown here were rather normal. Even the conspiracy theorists and anti-vaccine-people seemed down to earth and wanted people "to look into things. That is way WAY different than people blindly and fully beleaving in something inredibly wrong. This would surely be my 2. choice after the nice old man and before the self-absorbed old man.
  • @GreekGeorge
    Why isn't this show ever discussing RFK Jr's policies? Probably the same reason why most mainstream media news networks aren't.. because if the American people actually heard what this man stands for, they would definitely vote for him. RFK Jr. 2024!!!
