Robert F. Kennedy Jr. vowed to continue his uncle’s path to peace in a post about John F. Kennedy’s assassination.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is running as an independent in the 2024 presidential election, received backlash on social media after posting about his uncle’s death on the 60th anniversary of John F. Kennedy’s assassination.
JFK was shot and killed by Lee Harvey Oswald on November 22, 1963, while in a motorcade in Dallas, Texas. He was assassinated in the third year of his first term as president and was succeeded by his vice president, Lyndon B. Johnson.
RFK Jr. is the son of former senator Robert F. Kennedy, who was assassinated while running for president in 1968, and the nephew of JFK. He is an environmental lawyer known for being a vaccine skeptic. In early October, RFK Jr. announced that he was dropping his Democratic Party bid for president and instead running as an independent.
