A few hours after Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced his third-party campaign, four of the environmental lawyer's siblings released a statement online. Rory Kennedy, Kerry Kennedy, Joseph P Kennedy II, and Kathleen Kennedy Townsend said:
"Bobby might share the same name as our father, but he does not share the same values, vision, or judgment. Today’s announcement is deeply saddening for us. We denounce his candidacy and believe it to be perilous for our country."
