Not Tragic for the Left. The left leveraged that murder to reinvent America. We would not have gotten the federal gun laws and the “Great Society” without it. We very likely would have either stayed out of or won the Vietnam war.

Kennedy would likely be a Republican, today.

Yep, on lowering taxes, saying, “A rising tide raises all boats.”
And yep again—his death gave us Robert Byrd’s soul-mate Lyndon Baines Johnson who got his war and boasted, “I’ll have those niggers voting Democrat for the next 200 years.” managing to screw us up at home and abroad much like the Dem in office now.
But JFK, a champ? Nope. He was weak, Nikita’s bitch, and we almost paid dearly. The U-2 incident, Bay of Pigs, Vienna, Cuba. I’ll never understand why Eisenhower denigrated Nixon. That and the Democrat vote stealing in Chicago and precinct 13 in Texas resulted in the Kennedy win and the stupid angst we still see today.
They used his brother’s death to pass the `68 gun grab law.

JFK or any other Kennedy would never be a Republican. Same as MLK wasn’t and wouldn’t be a Conservative Republican.
