Brain Worm Buffet: RFK Jr.’s New Electoral Diet

Estimated reading time: 4 minutes

Politics has always been a circus, folks. And just when you think you’ve seen it all, someone comes along and decides, Hey, why not throw in some brain worms? Yes, you heard it right. RFK Jr., in his boundless wisdom, has declared he could eat brain worms and still beat Trump and Biden. This isn’t just a random musing during a bout of insomnia folks—this was a statement made with the confidence of a man who seemingly knows his way around a neurological parasite.

Now let’s get one thing straight: if eating brain worms is what it takes to win an election these days, we might as well skip the next debate and host a cooking show. “What’s on the menu tonight?” “Oh, just a light brain worm soufflé with a side of insanity.”

But beyond the sheer absurdity of his claim, there’s a deeper layer of lunacy here, one that reflects the outlandish state of our current political arena. RFK Jr. might be onto something. Because honestly, at this point, who wouldn’t believe that a candidate could have a brain worm and still be the best option?

You have to imagine RFK Jr. sitting in a strategy meeting, brainstorming campaign slogans. “How about ‘A Brain Worm in Every Pot’?” And everyone nods because, hell, it’s certainly more memorable than “Build Back Better.”

Let’s chew on this: we live in a world where a political candidate can suggest they could be infested by parasites and still be more competent than the incumbent powers. That’s not a reflection on RFK’s confidence level; that’s a scorching indictment of the confidence we have in our current leaders!

The statement about brain worms—while grotesquely hilarious—paints a picture of our desperation for leaders who, I don’t know, can complete coherent sentences or appear in public without causing an international incident. It’s as if RFK Jr. is saying, “Sure, I might be a bit out there, but at least I’m transparent about my issues. Can the other candidates say the same?” It’s a sad day, my friends, when being free of neurological parasites is no longer a basic prerequisite for office but potentially a competitive advantage.

You wanna know what’s even funnier? The fact that this could be an effective strategy. Imagine the debates. One candidate forgets what state they’re in; another starts arguing with a teleprompter, and then there’s RFK Jr., munching on brain worms, yet somehow still the voice of reason. “Don’t mind me, just fueling up on some worms so I can remember the nuclear codes.”

This saga also opens up a serious question about our political engagement. Are we so numb to typical political strategies that we now need candidates who can offer something as bizarre as parasitic resilience just to hold our attention? Are we scrolling through our feeds looking for a candidate, or are we just searching for our next viral sensation? If it’s the latter, then RFK Jr. has hit the nail on the head: why promise tax reforms or healthcare when you can promise brain worms?

In the eat-or-be-eaten world of politics, devouring brain worms might just be symbolic of how low we’ll stoop to grab that Oval Office chair. It’s not about policies or leadership anymore; it’s about who can churn out the most sensational soundbite.

So, as we gear up for another election cycle, let’s remember the real issues—like, whether your candidate is free of parasitic infections. And as for RFK Jr., cheers to him for having the guts to admit that eating brain worms might be the least of our troubles come 2024.
