I dont know if a third party would take votes just away from biden or would rfk junior take votes from both of them, lee . I think rfk takes votes from both. Maria thats what i think. West is probably more of a dynamic where he pulls from biden. Rfk, though, is still that stands for a kennedy, thats Robert F Kennedy, junior.
