There was also a Kennedy who volunteered for extremely hazardous duty in WWII and was killed. Old Joe had been grooming him to be prez.
With the possible exception of him, I think they were all womanizers, weren’t they? There are stories of Bobby and Marilyn, too.
“one who was a puritanically severe prosecutor and McCarthyite”
Do you mean Bobby? By the way, the dirty little secret is that McCarthy was right. If Bobby was a McCarthyite, that might be his only good point. There’s a really good account of the take-down in one of Ann Coulter’s books.
“so maybe this one is a compulsive brawler who’ll try to paste one on the Donald during a debate, and be restrained by the Secret Service”
Or maybe he will assault the president, and the president will pull a 1911 and give him one between the eyes. (Sorry, just daydreaming.)
Yup. Bobby. An older friend of mine, who was sentient during the McCarthy years, tells me that him as POTUS was scary. Whether McCarthy was right or not, Bobby was definitely too too much, according to my old friend.
A 1911? Nah. Donald wouldn’t pull out less than a Glock, latest model.
