A new star in the Democrat party discarded his “training wheels” and came out swinging for Joe Biden.
His name is John Bouvier Kennedy “Jack” Schlossberg, the only grandson of John F. Kennedy, a graduate of The Collegiate School on Manhattan’s Upper West Side who then went on to Yale and Harvard to study business.
Schlossberg came out in the form of an angry selfie video in which he castigated his uncle, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., for his covid “conspiracy” theories and for his refusal to support Biden in the 2024 presidential election.
RFK Jr., of course, is running as a presidential candidate. This fact embarrasses the Kennedy family, especially with headlines like the one that appeared in the New York Times this past June: “Robert Kennedy Jr., With Musk, Pushes Right Wing Ideas and Misinformation.”
It’s only ‘misinformation,’ of course, if you are a leftist ideologue.
“He [Kennedy],” The Times stated, “planned to travel to the Mexican border this week to ‘try to formulate policies that will seal the border permanently,’ called for the federal government to consider the war in Ukraine from the perspective of Russians and said pharmaceutical drugs were responsible for the rise of mass shootings in America,”
Shocking stuff indeed to the training-wheel free Schlossberg prince who at one point closely resembled JFK Jr. but who seems to be developing quite different facial characteristics as he ages. Schlossberg is a mere 30 years old.
Schlossberg is the son of a prominent Democrat, Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg, heir to Camelot, who attempted to fill Hilary Clinton’s New York vacant Senate seat in 2009 but withdrew from the race because the press declared that she “wasn’t ready for prime time.” (At that time it was reported that she said “You know” 168 times during a one half hour TV interview.)
Schlossberg has always been the darling of the liberal media, most especially female liberal bloggers who can’t seem to write about him without calling attention to his physical characteristics.
Schlossberg, with his shock of hair, is often spotlighted as a possible future president. In countless interviews and vanity pieces publications like Town & Country, he is asked: “Are you considering politics?” His answer, more or less, has always been, “Stay tuned.”
“Stay tuned,” of course, suggests that he’s still prepping with the Kennedy machine, most notably his mentor- mother, Caroline.
But with the public stoning of his uncle, RFK Jr. in a selfie video that distorts Schlossberg’s face into a kind of clenched fist, it is clear that Caroline’s son is ready to take the bull by the horns and become the Kennedy that he was meant to be.
Yet making and posting the anti-RFK Jr. video was far from a “courageous” thing to do, since the Kennedy family had already mounted a huge offensive against the renegade son of Robert F. Kennedy, gunned down by an assassin(s) in Los Angeles’ Ambassador Hotel on June 6, 1968.
Kerry Kennedy, RFK Jr.’s sister, was also quick to mount an attack, calling her brother’s covid conspiracy comments “Deplorable and regrettable.”
Kerry Kennedy was annoyed that an organization she runs, Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights, was somehow being confused with her brother’s policy statements.
“I love my brother, Bobby,” Kerry’s statement on the website reads, “but I do not share or endorse his opinions on many issues, including the COVID pandemic, vaccinations, and the role of social media platforms in policing false information…”
This Kennedy at least retained some old Kennedy charm in claiming that she loves her brother.
But there were no such declarations in Schlossberg’s video rant.
Most Kennedy family members were undoubtedly hot under- the- collar when RFK Jr. announced that he was going to run for president.
No doubt the family kept the pressure of that annoyance under wraps while waiting for the opportune moment to strike out at the heterodox Kennedy who dared to buck the mainstream Democrat party.
Schlossberg, who filmed his selfie-video from a car, said:
“Hi, I’m Jack Schlossberg and I have something to say. President John F. Kennedy is my grandfather and his legacy is important. It’s about a lot more than Camelot and conspiracy theories. It’s about public service and courage. It’s about civil rights, the Cuban missile crisis, and landing a man on the moon.”
The above quote might have been lifted from the comments section of a high school yearbook.
Listen closely to Schlossberg in any pod cast or video and you will hear the voice of mother-mentor Caroline.
That ‘voice’ is a bland milquetoast Democrat message that evades specifics like the ugly reality of CRT, gender ideology, the censuring of religious free speech, the irreligious Left, open borders, and the butchering of children’s bodies in the name of trans rights.
The Kennedy family is good at processing the Democrat party’s radical left issues into a kind of Hallmark Card mush where all the “dirty details” get buried in catchall words like ‘freedom,’ ‘civil rights’ and ‘public service.’
As signature (designer) name brand Democrats from a time long ago when ‘Democrat’ meant something good, the Kennedy family is more or less required to keep their product alive.
Not a single Kennedy family member seems to realize, with the exception of the courageous RFJ Jr., that the Democrat party no longer represents what it did in 1960.
Schlossberg has written for Politico, the Washington Post and The New York Times. In 2022, his career was called “a work in progress,” as Town & Country concluded that he “is trying to make his own way in the world.” In a long 2020 profile, ‘Haaretz’ saw him as “The Democrat’s New Hope.”
At age 23, young Jack published a rebuttal in ‘Politico’ to Ted Cruz’s claim that JFK wouldn’t feel at home in today’s Democratic Party.
‘As a senator and president he [JFK} supported immigration reform that would welcome more hopeful men and women to America’s shores,” Schlossberg wrote. “He did not try to close our borders, demonize foreign nationals or separate families by deporting parents with American children.
“Today, my grandfather would be 98 years old. He’d have no idea how to use a cell phone, and he’d be shocked by just how far the Republican Party has lost its way.”
The extraordinary claim that the Republican Party has lost its way flies in the face of logic and reason.
A quick Google search answering the question ‘Has the Democrat Party lost its way,’ reveals:
- The Atlantic. “Democrats’ Long Goodbye to the Working Class.”
- New York Times. “The Deadly Lack of Imagination in the Democratic Party.”
- New York Times. “A Political Scientist Warns the Democratic Party is off Course.”
- The Hill. “The Democratic Party’s deterioration.”
- New York Post: “Some registered Democrats Sick of the Left are Switching Sides.”
- “Democrats Have a Man Problem.”
As a child, Caroline Kennedy was often photographed with her hands in front of her eyes, as if somehow aware that the real favorite of the paparazzi, despite the manufacture of a Caroline doll, was little John-John.
There are no iconic images of Caroline crawling out from under the presidential desk in the Oval Office, but whatever these PR shortcomings; Caroline outlived her brother and stands as a living legacy to the Kennedy myth.
To that extent, she has been somewhat of a disappointment, writing books without a discernable “there there,” and becoming an unquestioning Democrat Party loyalist, never once venturing out to critique the Party’s far-left which has now become the party’s middle.
Why, then, would anyone expect her son, Jack Schlossberg, to be different from the milquetoast status quo?
Excellent commentary.
this kid is a true Dem POS
Schlossberg may be a Kennedy, but with that mug and his socialist mindset. he is going straight to the dustbin of history.
My take of all this: It does not matter who you are or what you think you are. It only matters as to whom you’ve been talking to or with. Whose been raising you, teaching you. Look at the Kennedy family … two people sort of broke from the reins, a little. That family is part and parcel to where we are now. Fear rules their roost period.
The young one rails with a lack of any intelligence any observation any devils advocate…. it’s so provocative just imagining that kids life….. murder mystery thriller kind of life….phew!
Jack Schlossberg has been carefully taught at home. Remember the song from South Pacific,,You’ve Got to be Carefully Taught, “before you are six, or seven or eight, to hate all the people your relatives hate, you’ve got to be carefully taught… you’ve got to be carefully taught.” bum, bum, bum.
He’s awful – his mother is an absolute MEDIOCRITY as are most of the Kennedy kids.
RFK Jnr is clearly worrying the leftist elites, if he wasn’t, they wouldn’t need to censor him.
The timing of this is indicative, for sure.
So right. The fact that it happened (Mo de Profit), and the TIMING say everything (Luz MR). Those two points together say so much. Thanks.
Doesn’t matter; it is all a ruse to divert voter attention.
For about two seconds I thought, maybe I could vote for a Kennedy. Then I heard he wants jail climate deniers. Climate denier is that anything like a Holocaust denier?
Was it Caroline who went Harlem to get the Rev. Al Charlatan’s blessing? Politics is their religion.
Great. Another advantaged know it all who’s better than me and is beginning a career of rubbing his superiority in our faces.
Maybe John Kerry can tutor him should a weak spot appear in his aristocratic mantle.
Whewwww!! Just HOW MUCH does it COST to get BRAINWASHED like that??? That kid seems to be living IN “Camelot” and probably sees nothing wrong with “the only good man” (Lord, that reference right there should disqualify him from EVER holding any office)! The DELUSION of such a “highly educated” person is simply stunning!! It’s evident that the kid has never encountered the REAL WORLD! And I would think his GRANDFATHER would either disown him or take him out to the woodshed for his stances! His GRANDFATHER was “supposedly” assassinated by the CIA – you know, the organization that President Kennedy said he would render into a 1000 pieces and scatter them in the wind!!! There’s something wrong with those Kennedy people who spring from Kennedy women!!!
RFK Jr. knows all the Kennedy secrets, and he’s spilling them. He may be crazy as a hoot-owl, but he’s telling the truth about the Kennedys. He was their Junior Schlossberg is a clueless punk.
It is really ironic, and revealing that Schlossberg and his immediate relatives are all lock-step far-Left ideologues. They are so insulated from reality, and must not be all that intelligent either. I don’t think that JFK or RFK would, at all, be in agreement with their “woke” idiocy. It appears that RFK Jr is the only one who ended up with any common sense, critical thinking/intelligence, and integrity..
And if you actually read his book, RFK, Jr. has a bad, sad case of TDS. “Trump traumatized the nation…” with Trump’s presidential policies. RFK Jr is a leftist in his policies. Check out his wife and climate change, globalism, etc etc. He has stated he wont go near Trump. And that Republicans are the ones stealing elections. His cringe-worthy bizarre comment that could further to endanger Jewish people at a (maybe drunk) dinner is creepy and worse.
He may embarrass his family but he is not a hero to me.
How could any sane person claim it is republicans who are stealing elections. I guess he probably doesn’t have both oars in the water.
Wow. I did not know a lot of this. Now I need to research RFK, Jr.
When I looked at the face of Schlossberg at the head of this article, my first impression was, “I don’t like the way he looks.” Then I castigated myself for judging him without knowing him. So, I started to read the article and when I came to this quote from him:
“Hi, I’m Jack Schlossberg and I have something to say. President John F. Kennedy is my grandfather….”
I thought he was not worth the time. I will definitely research RFK, Jr. Some of my kids are interested in him. I want to be ready for discussion.
“Schlossberg, with his shock of hair, is often spotlighted as a possible future president.” Since JFK, Democrats have swooned & worshiped men having “style over substance.” If you look good, you are our guy. Even if you are a dumb ass and can’t chew gum while walking. The news media also exacerbates this because they are the propaganda arm of the Democrats.
Another one of the Leftist Loons. This Kid had everything handed to him on a Silver platter and always will have. he knows nothing about Regular people and never Will. He is not JFK but another Rich Kid Infected with Wokeism. In other words don’t believe a thing he says.
Just another one of the fresh faced, bright eyed , highly “ educated” and articulate idiots that cause so much harm to society
Did this little pussy share whether or not he got the Covid Vaccine? If not, why not? Politics is full of “actors,” phony people reading scripts – wait, that’s his training. I guess we’ll see him soon. But, little-baby-rants won’t win anything.
All I can say is, there is a whole lot more Schlossberg than Kennedy in his appearance. I suspect his inclination is globalist, not patriotic American.
Corruption is strong in that family.
Theres one thing for sure. RFK jr is right about the harm that has come to children and adults from all these vaccines that are being promoted and were on the verge of being forced on the populace. Children’s Health Defense. He never would have locked down our economy. The Covid Virus was used to start the Great Reset and to dwindle America down and destroy our economic engine and supply chains.
Biden is a ‘good man’, huh ?
“…called for the federal government to consider the war in Ukraine from the perspective of Russians…”
Funny how the Dhimmicraps always want us to consider the sensitive feelings of the INVADERS who started the murdering of Ukrainians.
Sing me a sorry song about NATO causing this. Why didn’t Pooties invade NATO countries if this was their fault??
What is the much muttered-about “curse of the Kennedys”? They’re idiots, that’s what.
LOL! JFK’s grandson is deracinated leftwing Jewish elitist! Some legacy!
You think you’re bringing people into your fold and that you’ll assimilate them…but they end up assimilating you. Learn the lesson, CoreAmerica.
Anyone who retains the Democrat label is evil, power grubbing, and anti-constitutional. Any decent human beings abandoned Democrat long ago. Now all that remain are sub-human despots and their America-hating acolytes.
