In reality, which party would he even syphon votes from?

Both likely. The Republicans who dislike Trump enough to vote Democrat would probably prefer RFK, as well as the republicans who dislike Trump but were gonna vote for him because they would never vote Democrat. The republicans who want to see a R president no mater what will still vote Trump no matter their thoughts on him but little is gonna change their vote. He'll probably pull a lot of middle right voters too, middle left maybe not so much. My worry is the coalition of republicans and independents who hate trump is only growing and now they have a candidate who's not a democrat and also not trump.

Its kinda funny hes basically only gonna siphon Republicans, but that still doesn't mean only Trump voters these days, interesting times.

I'd bet that he would get mostly GOP-registered votes, but they would also be the Republicans who are most likely to vote against Trump. So kinda both?
