RFK Jr's sibling 'heartbroken' over Trump endorsement

In the Los Angeles Times, Max Kennedy said: "Trump was exactly the kind of arrogant, entitled bully" that his father, the US senator and attorney general Robert F Kennedy, stood against before he was assassinated in 1968 as he pursued the Democratic presidential nomination.

Max Kennedy predicted his father would have admired the Democratic nominee, Kamala Harris, because she was a former prosecutor as well.

"Her career, like his, has been all about decency, dignity, equality, democracy and justice for all," Max Kennedy wrote.
