Kennedy Family Disapproves RFK Jr.’s Endorsement of Donald Trump

A Rift in the Kennedy Clan

The esteemed Kennedy family found itself at the centre of political controversy this weekend, as multiple Kennedy siblings publicly condemned Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s endorsement of former President Donald Trump. This move stands in stark contrast to the Kennedy family’s historic association with the Democratic Party.

‘A Desecration of my Father’s Memory’- Kerry Kennedy

Among the Kennedy siblings voicing discontent was Kerry Kennedy, who served up severe criticisms of her brother’s stance on national television. She expressed her intention to “disassociate myself from Robert Kennedy Jr. and his flagrant and inexplicable effort to desecrate and trample and set fire to my father’s memory.” She further accused her brother of an “obscene embrace of Donald Trump,” stating her disgust and outrage at his actions.

Kerry Kennedy, one of Robert F. Kennedy Sr.’s 11 children, serves as the current president of Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights, a nonprofit organization established shortly after his assassination during his campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination in 1968. Alongside her, other esteemed family members, including Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, Courtney Kennedy, Chris Kennedy, and Rory Kennedy also denounced Robert Jr.’s endorsement of Trump.

Max Kennedy Speaks Out

Max Kennedy, yet another prominent sibling of RFK Jr., echoed the sentiment in a published opinion piece. He described his brother’s moves as a “strategic attempt at relevance,” noting his actions as displaying the very opposite of what their father admired. Despite his familial love for RFK Jr., Max Kennedy expressed an overwhelming disappointment and stated, “We are in mourning.”

RFK Jr.’s Side of the Story

RFK Jr., seemingly unruffled by his family’s public rejection, had his say on Fox News. He conveyed understanding towards his family’s reactions while reflecting on their upbringing promoting passionate debate amidst love. In the face of the public backlash, RFK Jr. calmly stated, “They are free to take their positions on these issues.”

He further added that he had numerous supporters within his extended family and emphasized a need for disagreement without the dissolution of communal ties. RFK Jr. also revealed his ongoing campaign efforts, hinting at further endorsements from prominent Democrats.

Looking Forward

RFK Jr.’s endorsement of Donald Trump marks a significant shift in the traditional political affiliation of the Kennedy family. As the fallout continues, it remains to be seen how this episode will impact the family’s influence, unity, and the broader political landscape.
