Members of the storied Kennedy family spent the weekend disavowing Robert F. Kennedy Jr. following his rambling announcement that he was suspending his independent presidential campaign in swing states and throwing his support to Republican candidate Donald Trump.
Five of Kennedy’s siblings fired off a response right after his announcement.
“Our brother Bobby's decision to endorse Trump today is a betrayal of the values that our father and our family hold most dear,” they wrote. “It is a sad ending to a sad story.”
Kerry Kennedy appeared on MSNBC’s “Inside with Jen Psaki” Sunday to deliver a blistering attack on her older brother and express unwavering support for Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.
“The stakes this November couldn't be higher, which is exactly why my whole family will be fighting so hard to reelect Kamala Harris and Coach Walz, who've been champions for the values that my family has fought for for years,” Kerry Kennedy told Psaki.
“I’m outraged and disgusted by my brother's gaudy and obscene embrace of Donald Trump,” she said. “I completely disavow and separate and dissociate myself from Robert Kennedy Jr. and this flagrant and inexplicable effort to desecrate and trample and set fire to my father's memory."
