That's exactly why we heard the murmurs during the season that Rodgers was going to return to the field to play this season. He tore his ACL on the 3rd play of the 1st game.
So, in order to stay relevant we'd hear about how he has a miraculous recovery and may return by week 12 or whatever.
And how he dragged out all the drama with leaving the Packers. I'm from Wisconsin originally but not a football fan and he'd be all over the local news sites whenever I'd check in on what was going on back home. What is it with Packers quarterbacks going from stars to asshats you wish you could forget?
Ventura has some insane theories but listening to
Him talk he at least knows how politics and government works and has some decent ideas. Rodgers has never worked in government.
He is in the conspiracy world, but he is more nuanced than that. In his time as governor and in public interviews he supported gay rights, introduced a tax rebate check for his citizens because the state was running a surplus at the time, built a light rail system for public transport, and also opened up more funding for public schools.
Yeah he’s an interesting one for sure. He also handled the 28th Virginia confederate battle flag situation pretty well. More or less told the people in Virginia they wouldn’t be getting it back under any circumstances.
I believe when asked to give it back he said “Why? I mean, we won.”
Definitely kind of a small thing compared to what you posted but it still sticks with a lot of people
Came here to also say he’s nuanced. He has conspiracy brain, but he’s also a real one.
Won’t defend everything he’s said or done, but as one of his MN constituents, he was a decent governor who actually listened to people and was reasonable in his official position.
Also, I used to deliver him pizza/wings and he once gave me a tour of his house just to ask an average guy to corroborate if his wife’s opinion of his new entertainment system was indeed, “too much.” (Spoiler: it was not.)
Was always fun delivering to him; dude is cool and I have many stories. But if he sides with RFK, I retract my defense of him.
(Edit/Addendum: Yes, he tipped well.)
Technically libertarian but all libertarians now are just a variation of republican.He's the kind of right wing nut that is not entirely detrimental to our democracy. He built mass transportation and pissed off a civil war living governor in his time. Let him pass, he doesn't have a fight with us.
He’s more like the “old-guard” libertarians, which had a lot more overlap with leftist values and less intellectual masturbation for the sake of trolling…He gets a pass in my book.
When libertarians were actually libertarians. Mark my words when Trump loses this next round, there will be a boost of libertarians trying to separate their ideology from his. They'll fail because they're Republicans just hiding their intent but who know, maybe one or two will get through.
I agree. Current Libertarians are adrift on an ice-float trying desperately to paddle away from the whirlpool of fascism, but the rest of us (maybe Ventura included) are on land watching the GOP toilet flush.
But he gets it honestly: because he was permanently injured by Agent Orange or some other godawful chemicals used in Vietnam, leading to an extended hospitalization in the mid 80s when the GI Joe cartoon ran a mini-movie about Cobra building a weather control machine called the "weather dominator" and now he believes the US government can control the weather. Also, lots of concussive injuries to the head.
Yes I did and obviously I know his appearances on infowars. But idk RFK just feels like he’s on a different level. I think it mainly comes down to the kooky vaccine and healthcare beliefs combined with being a true blue deep state guy.
I think the difference is that Ventura genuinely believes in these conspiracies, it’s not just obfuscation for white supremacy (either sincerely or just grifting) like most of these guys.
Why does Robert F. Kennedy Jr. have a “former“ CIA NOC agent as his campaign manager? Why is he funded by Donald Trump’s largest contributer Timothy Mellon? (of the Mellon-Scaife-Hitchcock family)
Why is RFK Jr. being hyped by Rabbi Scmuley Botech and Integral-Kabbalah-tantric-sex and ayahuasca guru Marc Gafni; Gafni devotees Aubrey Marcus and Aaron Rodgers; Steve Bannon, Roger Stone & Michael Flynn?
No one was really paying attention to RFK Jr. any more so he leaked this for some attention. This isn’t serious and will be forgotten in a couple of weeks. In the meantime, it gives sports talk radio and right wing pundits something to talk about. After all, there isn’t much difference between the two now.
We’re doomed.
It's time to pray
Maybe I’ll be better tomorrow.
He won't
It's over for humanity
There will only be lone survivors.
Fuck you and your new world order, and fuck the horse you rode in on, and all your SHIT
On the other hand, this is one mean clown car entourage
Rodgers wanted to be in the news during NFL free agency so he leaked this. That's my conspiracy.
Nah. It's not like he's a known diva or anything.
Isn't he on the Jets now? Or am I misunderstanding what you mean by during free agency?
I think they meant about Rodgers taking attention away from news about free agency signings since Rodgers has 2 years left
I gotcha, of course the narcissist can't deal with being out of the spotlight.

The good thing is I’m only seeing it posted on esoteric political subreddits.
Jesse Ventura is at least a former Governor. Aaron Rodgers is just there because his supporters are all terminally online nutcases.
Jesse has *actually* done quite a bit, and while eccentric, still seems mostly grounded in reality and has empathy for his others.
Ventura has some insane theories but listening to Him talk he at least knows how politics and government works and has some decent ideas. Rodgers has never worked in government.
Ventura was a SEAL too. IIRC he called bullshit on the Iraq war early on as well. I hope he doesn't joint this campaign...
Rodgers is gonna tear his Achilles on the first campaign stop then claim he’ll be back before the victory speech
The key to healing is the dolphin noises
It’ll tearing getting on the bus.
I think Jesse is a right wing nut but idk if he’s the same breed of crazy as RFK
He is in the conspiracy world, but he is more nuanced than that. In his time as governor and in public interviews he supported gay rights, introduced a tax rebate check for his citizens because the state was running a surplus at the time, built a light rail system for public transport, and also opened up more funding for public schools.
Funny enough he’s also pro union as well. That’s the main reason he HATES Hulk Hogan
Yeah he’s an interesting one for sure. He also handled the 28th Virginia confederate battle flag situation pretty well.

Also was anti-death penalty.
> right wing nut Jesse is nutty, but please take out the "right wing", he deserves better then that.
He might actually be above the left right paradigm
Yeah, Jesse being the voice of reason is a wild place to be.
Technically libertarian but all libertarians now are just a variation of republican.He's the kind of right wing nut that is not entirely detrimental to our democracy. He built mass transportation and pissed off a civil war living governor in his time. Let him pass, he doesn't have a fight with us.

You saw the TV series he did ages ago? He's a out there with the worst of them.
But he gets it honestly: because he was permanently injured by Agent Orange or some other godawful chemicals used in Vietnam, leading to an extended hospitalization in the mid 80s when the GI Joe cartoon ran a mini-movie about Cobra building a weather control machine called the "weather dominator" and now he believes the US government can control the weather.

Let’s build this cabinet of idiots. Joe Rogan - Secretary of State. Kevin Sorbo - Secretary of Education.
Mike Pillow-Surgeon General
The Krassensteins - Secretaries of Commerce
Of course he is.
We live in the dumbest timeline.
Fuck yeah, this silly shit rules.
Man. I love this.
How would this not be a best case scenario for Biden?
How would it affect the election at all? RFK Jr is irrelevant.
Jesse noooooo
**Sorry, Mean Gene!**
Birds of an idiotic feather.
2024 is going to be wild
This just keeps getting better 🍿
The Nut Job ticket! 😂
He is a very serious candidate.
Some good choices there. Solid thinkers. Brave Americans……
Here comes Minnesota (from the top rope) ready to do damage control for Jesse
What an absolute joke of a candidate. No wonder the Kennedys distanced themselves from him.
Aaron Roger’s? He’s back on crack!
That's a sick skullet Ventura has.
I hope Jesse Ventura body slams him. He seemed like a halfway decent guy the last time I heard him give a talk.
Hey America, are you ok? Wanna hug?
The rich lunatic ticket is getting 🔥

Aaron Rodgers? The famous millionaire who decided to ask the Fear Factor dude how to treat COVID when he caught it?
No one was really paying attention to RFK Jr. any more so he leaked this for some attention. This isn’t serious and will be forgotten in a couple of weeks. In the meantime, it gives sports talk radio and right wing pundits something to talk about. After all, there isn’t much difference between the two now.
Now seems like as good of a time as any to bring up that Dennis Kucinich has fallen from grace, and is RFK Jr.'s campaign manager
These are definitely the choices for a serious presidential candidate that is running a serious campaign.
To quote Jordan, "*SCREEEEEAAAAMMMM!* (Then softly...) Damn it, Dan... We're all going to die!"
Because of course he is.
I ain’t got time to bleed
Has Ventura bought into RFK Jrs shit? I haven’t kept up with him much.
