Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Criticizes Vice President Harris and the Democratic Party

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has expressed sharp criticism of Vice President Kamala Harris and the current state of the Democratic Party. In a recent statement, Kennedy contrasted the party’s present direction with the values of his father, Robert F. Kennedy, and his uncle, President John F. Kennedy.

“My dad and uncle’s party was the champion of voting rights and fair elections. VP Harris’s is the party of lawfare, disenfranchisement, and the coronation of its candidates by corporate donors and party elites,” he said.

Kennedy argued that the Democratic Party of his father and uncle was committed to civil liberties, free speech, and anti-war principles. He claimed that the party under Vice President Harris has shifted towards censorship, lockdowns, and what he described as “medical coercion.”

Kennedy also highlighted differences in economic and social policies. He pointed out that the RFK/JFK Democratic Party was supportive of working-class citizens, law enforcement, and first responders, while he believes the current party is more aligned with Big Tech, Big Pharma, and Wall Street interests.

“My father and uncle prided themselves on their skills at debate and their ability to articulate a coherent vision for our country. VP Harris is scared to debate and can’t survive an unscripted interview. Instead of outlining a vision, she relies on middleschool tactics – memes, forged headlines, infantile slogans (Joy!) and name calling (“Republicans are weird,” he added.

He further criticized Harris for her handling of issues related to voting rights and fair elections, accusing her of prioritizing corporate donors and party elites over fair democratic processes.

Kennedy concluded his statement by emphasizing his long-standing commitment to battling government corruption and his intention not to endorse Kamala Harris for President. Instead, he stated his plan to actively work against her candidacy.
