12. Remember 2016?

It only takes a handful of voters in some key states - Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia among others - to swing all of those states' electoral votes from Biden to the Orange One. It happened in 2016, it almost happened in 2020, and it can happen in 2024. It's bad enough that Jill Stein is on the ballot in some states: Kennedy has name recognition, and that counts for a lot among low-information voters.
