00:00:03.120 --> 00:00:17.320
Calarogu Shark Media. Welcome to ballot
where politics meets pop culture. Hold on

2
00:00:17.359 --> 00:00:22.079
to your helmets because we've got some
political drama brewing involving the NFL. That's

3
00:00:22.160 --> 00:00:26.120
right, Robert F. Kennedy Junior
has tossed to Hail Mary, reaching out

4
00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:31.079
to none other than Aaron Rodgers and
Jesse Ventura aka the Body to join him

5
00:00:31.079 --> 00:00:35.920
on an independent presidential ticket as the
VP. Kennedy has been playing the quarterback

6
00:00:35.920 --> 00:00:40.520
sneak, keeping his discussions with Rogers
and Ventura on the down low, but

7
00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:45.039
sources say both Rogers and Ventura are
game for the challenge, ready to tackle

8
00:00:45.039 --> 00:00:49.039
the political field like it's the fourth
quarter of the Super Bowl. Now,

9
00:00:49.039 --> 00:00:53.159
you might be wondering what's in it
for Rogers and Ventura. Well, for

10
00:00:53.240 --> 00:00:58.240
one, it could add some serious
star power to Kennedy's outsider campaign. Plus,

11
00:00:58.479 --> 00:01:02.280
with rogers experience leading the Green Bay
Packers and those other eight minutes with

12
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:06.560
the Jets, and Ventura's wrestling background, they're not afraid to take on tough

13
00:01:06.560 --> 00:01:11.680
opponents both on and off the field. But here's the kicker. Kennedy's bid

14
00:01:11.719 --> 00:01:15.200
has got both Democrats and Republicans sweating
bullets. Polls show him pulling votes from

15
00:01:15.200 --> 00:01:19.000
both sides, and Democrats are especially
worried he could throw a game winning pass

16
00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:23.959
to Trump. It's like watching a
political version of the Super Bowl, Folks,

17
00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:27.359
anything could happen. As for Rogers, well, he's no stranger to

18
00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:33.200
controversy, from his vaccine skepticism to
his late night beef with Jimmy Kimmel.

19
00:01:33.560 --> 00:01:37.400
He's been making headlines both on and
off the field. But hey, maybe

20
00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:40.519
a run for VP is just what
he needs to shake things up. So

21
00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:44.799
Aaron Rodgers might run for vice president
with Robert F. Kennedy Junior. Well,

22
00:01:45.079 --> 00:01:48.239
that's one way to ensure the ticket
has as much success as the Jets

23
00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:53.560
and the playoffs none. And let's
not forget about Ventura, the former wrestler

24
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:57.680
turned governor turned independent maverick. He's
been in the political ring before, and

25
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:01.760
he's not afraid to throw a few
punches. It seems Aaron isn't the only

26
00:02:01.799 --> 00:02:07.400
athlete eyeing a career move. Golden
State Warriors sharpshooter Stefan Curry dropped a bombshell

27
00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:10.960
this week, hinting that he might
just dip his toes into the world of

28
00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:15.759
politics. In an interview with CBS, Curry admitted he's toying with the idea

29
00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:21.360
of running for president someday. Yeah
you heard that, right, president.

30
00:02:21.960 --> 00:02:24.319
But don't get too excited just yet. He's still sitting on the fence calling

31
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:30.400
himself a maybe now. Curry's no
stranger to the political scene. Remember when

32
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:34.919
he endorsed Joe Biden back in twenty
twenty. That's right. He's not afraid

33
00:02:34.919 --> 00:02:38.919
to slam dunk his support behind a
candidate. And let's not forget his little

34
00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:43.159
spat with Donald Trump after he passed
on that White House invitation. Looks like

35
00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:46.159
Curry's not just dribbling on the court, He's dribbling in the political arena too.

36
00:02:46.719 --> 00:02:51.840
But hold your horses, folks.
While Curry's got some lofty ambitions,

37
00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:54.919
he's not about to throw his hat
into the ring just yet. He made

38
00:02:54.960 --> 00:02:59.479
it clear that twenty twenty eight might
be a tad too soon for his presidential

39
00:02:59.520 --> 00:03:04.000
debut. Hey, even MVPs need
a warm up, right, So,

40
00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:07.800
with Curry eyeing the White House and
Rogers considering a VP spot, it looks

41
00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:13.039
like the sports world might be gearing
up for a political showdown. Who knows,

42
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:16.240
maybe we'll see a Curry Rogers ticket
in the future, because if there's

43
00:03:16.280 --> 00:03:21.400
one thing we've learned, it's that
anything can happen in the game of politics.

44
00:03:22.520 --> 00:03:25.439
In the main event, Joe Biden
secured enough delegates last night to secure

45
00:03:25.439 --> 00:03:30.479
the nomination. Trump was probably going
to do the same, But I went

46
00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:34.599
to bed early, and I am
more interested in his sneakers than some effectively

47
00:03:34.680 --> 00:03:45.919
meaningless primaries back after this, well, it looks like Donald Trump just gave

48
00:03:45.960 --> 00:03:49.879
the Republican National Committee a makeover.
And let me tell you it's not your

49
00:03:49.919 --> 00:03:53.120
typical New Year, New Me situation. Nope, this was more like a

50
00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:58.840
political blitz creak, leaving folks out
of work, shaking up strategies, and

51
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:02.680
stirring up some serious concerns about the
party's future. In true Trump fashion,

52
00:04:03.039 --> 00:04:08.719
he's gone and overhauled the RNC leadership, saying sayonara to most of the old

53
00:04:08.759 --> 00:04:12.639
guard and bringing in his own crew. I mean, we're talking a major

54
00:04:12.680 --> 00:04:15.800
shakeup here, from the top brass
down to the state directors. It's like

55
00:04:15.839 --> 00:04:20.079
he hit the reset button on the
whole dang operation. Trump's also flipping the

56
00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:27.199
script on the rnc's playbook. He's
closing down community outreach centers revamping voter programs,

57
00:04:27.360 --> 00:04:30.000
and even bringing in his own legal
eagle, Christina Bob, who's known

58
00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:34.120
for peddling some pretty wild claims about
the twenty twenty election. But hey,

59
00:04:34.680 --> 00:04:40.639
not everyone's thrilled about these changes.
Some former RNC bigwigs are scratching their heads,

60
00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:44.160
wondering if this whole Trump takeover is
really going to benefit the party in

61
00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:46.439
the long run. I mean,
are they sacrificing the greater good for the

62
00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:50.399
Trump show. It's a real head
scratcher, folks. But Trump's team is

63
00:04:50.439 --> 00:04:55.439
all about that America first mindset,
insisting that these changes are going to be

64
00:04:55.480 --> 00:05:00.160
a game changer come election time,
and with Trump leading the charge, ever

65
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:02.480
know what kind of surprises are in
store. So buckle up, folks,

66
00:05:02.720 --> 00:05:04.439
because this ride's just getting started,
