I think RFK Jr's ruse get's blown when he starts pulling out the "It's the Jooz!" card.  

The "It's the Jooz!" card is a solid go to for right wing leaders, and yes, at times even some on the left any time they are trying to impress the base in flyover country.  People in red states are around a lot fewer Jews on a regular basis, so many of the more easily manipulated  ones will basically allow whatever right wing demagogue that comes along to fill in the blanks when it comes to forming their mental picture of what a Jew is and what a Jew does.  Pretty soon you'll get the "Hitler had some great ideas" line of thought that follows from the good red state folks that most definitely are not anti semites.  All they really know about the Jews is that they killed baby Jesus, and that's about all they need to know.

It's why the right has become, for the most part, the party of Qanon.  Qanon is not new.  It's good old "Its the Jooz!" blood libel theory (the idea that Jews eat and molest your kids for shits and giggles) repackaged for a newer and possibly even more ignorant base than the one that took the bait in Germany a little over a century ago..  

Go vote for "Its the Jooz!" guy if you want.  He brings the Neo Nazis and the Q crowd in tow wherever he goes.  I think I'll stick to Mr Magoo over that shit sandwich.  

Duly noted. We’ll put you in the 20% category.
