Members of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s extended family called it a “betrayal of the values that our father and our family hold most dear” on Friday after the independent presidential candidate announced that he was endorsing former President Trump.
“We want an America filled with hope and bound together by a shared vision of a brighter future,” Kerry Kennedy wrote in a statement alongside four of Kennedy’s siblings. “We believe in Harris and Walz. Our brother Bobby’s decision to endorse Trump today is a betrayal of the values that our father and our family hold most dear.”
“It is a sad ending to a sad story,” they added.

I'm not sure that they would appreciate the irony of citing "family values" when applied to the Kennedy family. Starting with old Joseph P.
They also may want to revisit their family history in another respect. JFK and RFK were all in on killing Communists, not endorsing them.

Perhaps the "Family" should re examine its values.

Robert F. Kennedy is an individual and so far in the USA he is free to develop his own political stances no matter what his stuck with the leftist and progressive Democrat extended family believes

These people obviously didn't listen to his speech. Eloquent and excoriating, it summed up how the Democrat party has betrayed its own historical values and our nation. The Kennedy clan has been inside the tent so long they can no longer see sunlight.

The Kennedy values: open borders, abortion on demand, irresponsible spending, corruption, lax law and order.

Caroline Kennedy’s son Jack Schlossberg also spouted off. This guy has no political appeal. He is a dud like his mother and Chelsea Clinton.

No one on earth can embarrass, shame or hurt us like family! If you want to learn a great "life-time" lesson from RFK Jr... it's this - do and say what is right, despite the foolishness and idiocy of family. Actually, you may a considerable amount of freedom when you learn to put "family" in their place and do what is right... it's quite liberating!

Maybe the REST of the FAMILY are just THAT STUPID. After all it was the FBI and CIA that KILLED JFK and Bobbie and yet they support the very people who KILLED their family. Wonder how much they are getting PAID to cover up the lies?
I hope Trump gives RFK Jr. money and people to prove the lies. Child vaccines and the Covid vaccines are dangerous and
cause death and bad things in kids. We never had ADHD and autism til Fauci started all these vaccines in kids. I hope he proves Fauci is evil and can be executed.

The unhappiness in the ultra-leftist Kennedy family because of RFK, Jr.'s defection to Trump is quite heartening. Call the wahhmbulance. Bobby's book on Fauci and the mess surrounding Covid was well written, well researched, and above all, honest. Although he and I probably don't agree on very much, I respect him and wish him well in the upcoming Trump administration. Bobby is an intelligent, courageous fellow. I'm sure PDJT will find the proper agency for him to turn around. Above all, Bobby realizes that Trump was a successful president, and that Heels Up could not possibly be.

He is the family patriarch ( I can’t believe Old Joe left much to Caroline) I suspect he has a lot of say about who gets what when Ethel dies.

What a bunch of hogwash. The "shared vision" of the democrats is to coddle, feed and support the parasites of the country so they will vote democrat for life. They don't care who the sheep are as long as they know what a "D" is and how to bow down to their masters. There is nothing special about the Kennedys, they continue to live on the proceeds of the criminal life of old Joe just like Jack and Bobby Sr. did. Jack was shot because he attempted to kill Fidel Castro and Bobby was shot by the PLO.

Eldridge Cleaver, a prominent Black Panther, went to live abroad to escape the racism and oppression here. He went to Cuba and Algeria and Russia. He returned shaken and depressed since he had seen first hand the nature of control that Communist states have over the people. It shocked him and made him realize he was wrong and we would end up in a worse mess. That is where we are headed. The Kennedy's are not the brightest ones. They have sold their souls to the Communists. Robert Kennedy Jr. is putting America first. Good for him.

Kennedy used to be a respected Southern name. My Kennedy clan immigrated from Scotland long before those Irish Kennedys came over. We are related (unfortunately), but only if you go back about 10 generations.

I would not defend Junior in any way.... but "Kennedy family values"????? Junior comes from a long line of Kennedy men who cannot keep their pants zipped, starting with at least old Joe and continuing through Teddy. There are the "Kennedy family values" for you.
And of course Mary Jo Kopechne was unavailable for comment about the "Kennedy family values."

Guess they believe every word that Harris said. Well, I don’t. But Harris changed her mind, so why can’t RFK.

Family values.
Joe Kennedy was a bootlegger. He supported Hitler. He cheated on his wife. He rigged elections to get his son into Congress and into the White House. He subjected his daughter to a lobotomy that ruined her life.
He than paid Jackie Kenney millions not to divorce Jack, so as to not ruin his career.
JFK cheated on his wife multiple times.
Ted Kennedy killed a girl while driving drunk and then denied it to protect his political butt. He paid off her family to keep then quiet.
Keep your Camelot family values.

i personally think that JFK and RFK were far closer to trump policies than harris policies on most of the issues currently afflicting our country.

In America there was the Jamestown example, which was embraced by Democrats and include Slavery and irredeemable win at everyone else's cost...
And the Plymouth Rock choice, of prayer, service to God and treating your neighbor as a sibling from a different family.
The latter was championed by the first Republican President in the midst of the Civil War.
With the Kennedys, you have those that follow the JFK model and those that follow the Teddy Kennedy example. The Kennedys are almost all like sex-starved ferrets, but JFK at least tried to buck the Swamp and put the country first. Bobby suggested he'd follow his brothers example, and the Swamp killed them.
Teddy... Groveled.
Looks like the rest of the Kennedys are grovelers as well.

Actually it is the Larger Kennedy Family that has had a betrayal of values. Democrats USED to be fairly normal but now they are all Rabid Commies!
