Multiple siblings of former independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. spent the weekend condemning their family member after he suspended his campaign and endorsed the Republican nominee, former President Donald Trump; rebuking the Kennedy family’s decades-long association with the Democratic Party.
Kerry Kennedy, RFK Jr.’s sister, went scorched-earth on cable shows against her brother, claiming she was planning to “separate and disassociate myself from Robert Kennedy Jr. and his flagrant and inexplicable effort to desecrate and trample and set fire to my father’s memory.”
“I think if my dad were alive today, the real Robert Kennedy would have detested almost everything Donald Trump represents,” Kerry told Jen Psaki, the former Biden press secretary, on her MSNBC show on Sunday. “I’m outraged and disgusted by my brother’s gaudy and obscene embrace of Donald Trump.”
