Robert F. Kennedy Jr. responded to criticism he has faced from his wife and other members of the Kennedy family on Sunday after endorsing former President Trump.
Kennedy faced questions about the family drama during an appearance on "Fox News Sunday" with host Shannon Bream. Bream referenced a letter from Kennedy's siblings condemning his endorsement on Friday.
"You know, my family is at the center of the Democratic Party. I have members of my family that are working for the Biden administration. Biden has a bust of my father behind him at the Oval Office, and he's been a family friend for many years," Kennedy said.
"My family is – I understand that they're troubled by my decisions. I love my family. I feel like we were raised in a milieu where we were encouraged to debate each other and debate ferociously and passionately about things and still love each other," he added. "They're free to take their positions on these issues. There are many, many members of my family working at my campaign and who are supporting me."
"I think we all need to be able to disagree with each other and still love each other," he concluded.
