EXPLAINED: Trump has declared war on the kennedys | Vintage Vibes

It’s yet another cruel moment in a cruel presidency: Mere hours after Tatiana Schlossberg — daughter of former Ambassador to Australia and Japan Caroline Kennedy, granddaughter of President John F. Kennedy and First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis — died at 35 on Dec. 30 from a rare and aggressive form of leukemia, Donald Trump took to Truth Social to attack the Kennedys in deeply personal terms.

“The Kennedy Family have LONG neglected the Kennedy Center, btw,” read one post from a supporter that was shared by the president. “They don’t raise money for it. They never show up. And the only Kennedy who has been there recently is a member of Trump’s cabinet.” Another was more concise and straightforward: “The Trumps have always been supporters of the arts. The Kennedys are supporters of the Kennedys.”
