Rogan asked RFK Jr. what he thought would happen if he managed to get into office, to which Kennedy replied "I gotta be careful."
"I'm aware of that, you know, I'm aware of that danger. I don't live in fear of it — at all. But I'm not stupid about it, and I take precautions," he added.
Kennedy spoke about his Uncle JFK being "at war" with the military industrial complex, and asserted that the intelligence agencies were "trying to trick him" into launching military excursions into Cuba and Vietnam.
RFK Jr. again spoke about JFK eventually concluding that he must "shatter" the CIA "into a thousands pieces" and "scatter it to the winds."
"[JFK] learned very early on that the purpose of the CIA and the intelligence apparatus was to create a constant pipeline of new wars for them, for the military industrial complex," Kennedy noted, adding that JFK was adamant that "it's not the United States' jobs to dictate what kind of governments other countries have."
RFK Jr. continued, "in October of 1963 he heard that some of his Green Berets had been killed... and he said I want a total casualty list from Vietnam. His aide came to him and said 75 Americans have died, he said that's too many and he signed that day a national security directive ordering all troops out of Vietnam... the first thousand over the next month and then the rest by the beginning of 1965, and um and then a month later he was killed."
Watch:
Kennedy has previously laid out how he firmly believes that the CIA killed his father and his uncle.

Comment: Joe Rogan asked him about this possibility because RFK Jr. was speaking about what he would do, if he were elected president, about America's "forever wars." RFK Jr. wants to end those and bring American troops back home, just as JFK tried to do. One thing is for sure, he doesn't lack for courage and conviction, something today's political leaders in the West severely lack. On that front, he already is better than almost all of the other candidates for president.
