The Media Curse a Kennedy
RedState reported on the media backlash following Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s endorsement of Donald Trump after dropping out of the presidential race. Left-leaning outlets, including Politico, The Washington Post and MSNBC, accused Kennedy of betraying his family’s legacy and aligning with divisive politics. The media also highlighted his stance on COVID vaccines.
More from Jeff Charles at RedState:
Kennedy has been a Democrat for decades like the rest of his family. Now, he is rejecting the party – and for good reason. His policies still largely line up with the left, which one can see by taking a glance at his platform. It is not as if he has become a conservative Republican, right?
Perhaps the left-wing hacks in the press should be more upset with Democrats for driving Kennedy away, along with a substantial portion of his supporters, many of whom will likely support Trump. The left has shown just how out of touch it is with everyday folks, which has caused many to become disillusioned with the party.
