Over a dozen members of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s family, including six of his siblings, are endorsing President Biden in Philadelphia Thursday even as he makes his own bid for Biden’s job as an independent candidate.

Kennedy’s sister, Kerry Kennedy, is expected to praise Mr. Biden as a leader in the mold of her father, Robert F. Kennedy, who “stood for equal justice, human rights and freedom from want and fear — just as President Biden does today,” according to excerpts of her remarks released by the Biden campaign.

Her father served as attorney general in John F. Kennedy’s administration and was running for president himself when he was assassinated in 1968.

Speaking for the family members who are endorsing Mr. Biden, Kerry Kennedy will also have harsh words for presumptive Republican nominee and former President Donald Trump.

      Fuck, you reminded me that Trump was so bad he made Bush2 look good.

      For any youngins out there:

      Al-Zaidi said Bush’s “bloodless and soulless smile” and his joking banter provoked him. I don’t know what accomplishments he was talking about. The accomplishments I could see were the more than 1 million martyrs and a sea of blood. There are more than 5 million Iraqi orphans because of the occupation… More than a million widows and more than 3 million displaced because of the occupation." al-Zaidi said.

      The world hated Bush2. This journalist snapped out of rage and bush is telling jokes because he doesn’t understand the cultural context surrounding the insult of someone throwing unclean shoes at you.

        Africa actually liked Bush2 because he sent a lot of foreign aid there during his tenure. Helped a lot with their AIDs pandemic at the time.
