President Joe Biden delved into the history of the Kennedy family on Wednesday as he received their endorsement, invoking the family’s history of public service in the face of violence and warning of the kind of “bloodshed” that a new Trump presidency would bring.

Kerry Kennedy expressed her family’s support for President Joe Biden on Thursday, describing him as a man “going up in flames,” marking the clan’s rift with her older brother RFK Jr. was strengthened.
The crowd erupted in chants: “Four more years.”
About 19 members of the Kennedy family were in the audience, including Biden’s special envoy to Northern Ireland Joe Kennedy III.
The event, at the Martin Luther King Recreation Center, marks Biden’s third straight day in Pennsylvania, and he will need to perform strongly among Philadelphia’s black population if he wants to win the state.
For his part, Biden paid tribute to the history of the Kennedy family and thanked them for their support.
“I want to thank you for your friendship, even after the introduction,” he said. ‘It is an incredible honor to have the support of your family. And it means so much to me.”
“President Biden has been a champion of all the rights and freedoms that my father and uncle stood for,” Kerry Kennedy said as she plunged the knife into her brother.
“That’s why almost every grandchild of Joe and Rose Kennedy supports Joe Biden.”

Biden will face Republican Donald Trump in a rematch of the 2020 election in November.
Both parties are concerned that Kennedy, who is running a quixotic campaign based on his history as an anti-vaccine activist, could eat into their vote share.
A recent DailyMail.com/JL Partners poll found that Biden lost more voters from his coalition to the independent party than Trump.
The approval wasn’t really a surprise. Several members of the Kennedy clan had already broken with RFK Jr.

“I can only imagine how Donald Trump’s outrageous lies and behavior would have horrified my father, Robert F. Kennedy,” Kerry Kennedy said.
“Dad stood for equal justice, human rights, and freedom from want and fear. Just like President Biden is doing today.”
She cited his work in Ukraine and on arms control, praising how he had traveled twice to active war zones.
“He is the first sitting president in our history to travel to an active war zone not under American control, not once, but twice to show support for our allies,” she said. ‘He always was
run into the flames so we don’t have to.’
The Kennedy members will then join the volunteers knocking on the door and calling on Biden.

“I’m glad they’re politically active – it’s a family tradition,” he said. “We are divided in our opinions, but united in our love for each other.”

Since RFK Jr. joined the race, first as a Democrat and then as an independent, a number of his family members have spoken out against his run for the White House.
“Our brother Bobby’s decision to run as a third-party candidate against Joe Biden is dangerous for our country,” his siblings Rory, Kerry, Joseph P. Kennedy II and Kathleen Kennedy Townsend said in a statement last fall.
Many Kennedy family members have known Robert F. Kennedy Jr. disavowed for his skepticism about vaccines and talked about conspiracy theories.

Kennedy, 70, an environmental lawyer, is acting as an anti-vaccine activist.
His famous name has helped him rise in the polls. But it has proven to be a double-edged sword.
He was forced to apologize for a Super Bowl ad similar to one for his uncle, John F. Kennedy, that ran in 1960.
The 30-second ad, which cost an estimated $7 million, featured “Kennedy, Kennedy, ‘Kennedy For Me,'” helping JFK defeat Richard Nixon.
The rift within the family became clear when members of the family, dressed in green, posed for photos with Biden on the Rose Garden Steps last month.
“From one proud Irish family to another – it was good to have you all back in the White House,” Biden posted on social media in response to a post with the photo of Kerry Kennedy, the youngest daughter of the late Senator Bobby Kennedy.
