For those considering RFK Jr. as a third party candidate, it's important to note that his potential running mate, NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers, is a believer in conspiracy theories about the Sandy Hook shooting.
CNN has information about two people with whom Rodgers has eagerly shared these beliefs, including Pamela Brown, one of the journalists who wrote this article.
While covering the Kentucky Derby for CNN in 2013, Brown met Rodgers and was informed by him, then with the Green Bay Packers, that the news media was covering up important stories. He brought up the tragic event at Sandy Hook Elementary School, claiming it was a government inside job and the media was intentionally ignoring it.
When Brown asked him for evidence to support his belief that the shooting was staged, Rodgers shared various theories that have been proven false multiple times.
With Donald Trump and his unfounded conspiracies already causing concern, the country does not need RFK Jr. and Aaron Rodgers, who opposes vaccines and believes in Sandy Hook conspiracies, further contaminating the national political landscape.
NFL followers are aware that Rodgers is against vaccines and holds unconventional beliefs and behaviors. The Sandy Hook conspiracies are akin to those propagated by Alex Jones and have no place in a presidential election.
Hopefully, this revelation puts an end to Aaron Rodgers' potential political aspirations and encourages him to keep his conspiracy theories to himself.
