“I didn’t leave the Democratic Party, the Democratic Party left me.”
Those words were not spoken by Robert Fitzgerald Kennedy, Jr. last week. Rather, they are words of our nation’s 40th president, Ronald Wilson Reagan, who voted for Franklin Roosevelt for President all four times he headed the ticket. By the 1960s, Reagan made the formal Party switch.
The political transformation of Bobby Kennedy Jr., one of the scions of Democratic Party royalty and longtime environmental activist and lawyer, may be as impactful as Reagan’s more gradual evolution. Kennedy left his party last year to become an Independent and recently endorsed Donald Trump for president.
A less sensational but very significant related evolution by Bobby Kennedy, Jr comes from his views on climate change, which were discussed this week when Tucker Carlson interviewed him on his podcast.
