A Cri de Coeur From Camelot
RFK Jr. tells the Sun that his ancestors would not ‘have a place in today’s Democratic Party.’

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s declaration that his father and uncle would feel more at home in President Trump’s GOP is a stunning admission from a scion of the family. It came in a conversation between RFK Jr. and our publisher, Dovid Efune. The erstwhile candidate for president now endorses Trump, and has joined his transition team. His forebears, he reckons, would not “have a place in today’s Democratic Party.” Call it a cri de coeur from Camelot.
“All the policies that my uncle and father believed [in], and I believe I would check every one of those boxes, and Donald Trump today is much closer to that, and he doesn’t agree with me on everything,” RFK Jr. told Mr. Efune. Mr. Kennedy remembers when Democrats “were always the anti-war party, we were the party of civil rights and constitutional rights, including freedom of speech.” Now he calls Democrats the “party of censorship and surveillance.”
