The grandson of former President John F. Kennedy has slammed Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s 2024 White House bid, calling his candidacy a “disgrace” and a “vanity project,” while endorsing President Joe Biden’s 2024 run.
“President John F. Kennedy is my grandfather. And his legacy is important,” Jack Schlossberg, the son of US Ambassador to Australia Caroline Kennedy, said in a video posted on Friday on Instagram. “It’s about a lot more than Camelot and conspiracy theories. It’s about public service and courage.”

The 30-year-old said President Biden “shares his grandfather’s vision for America” and is “the greatest progressive president we’ve ever had.”
“It’s about civil rights, the Cuban Missile Crisis and landing a man on the moon. Joe Biden shares my grandfather’s vision for America, that we do things not because it’s easy, but because it’s hard.

Schlossberg touted President Biden’s track record, saying Biden ended the COVID-19 pandemic and ended former President Donald Trump.
“Under Biden, we’ve added 13 million jobs. Unemployment is at a 60-year low. Biden passed the largest investment in infrastructure since the New Deal, and the largest investment in green energy ever,” Schlossberg said. “He appointed more federal judges than any president since my grandfather. He ended our longest war. He ended the COVID pandemic, and he ended Donald Trump.”

The graduate of Harvard Law School and Harvard Business School said that the Biden agenda is “issues that matter.”
“And if my cousin Bobby Kennedy Jr. cared about any of them, he would support Joe Biden, too,” Schlossberg said. “Instead, he peddles Camelot, artist conspiracy theories and conflicts for personal gain and fame.”

“All I know is that his candidacy is a disgrace. We will not be distracted again, by someone’s vanity project. I look forward to voting for Joe Biden in my state’s primary and also in the general election, and I hope you are too.”
