"President Biden and former President Trump each had the second-highest percentage of respondents viewing them favorably, with 44 percent saying so. But Biden had a minus-9 net favorability rating, while Trump had a minus-10 net favorability rating. "
To be honest the only reasonably current Kennedy I knew of was Caroline. And she’s generally been out of things for a while. And even then a lot of things related to the Kennedy name are mostly nostalgic goggles. It’s a real question had John f Kennedy served a full-term or even two full terms whether or not we would remember him the way we do. The man was a skilled fucking orator. But he was killed early in his term. And will never really know ultimately as a president how he stacked up.
Yeah, I’ve been brushing up on presidential history during the 1900s recently and I tend to agree that JFK would be looked at at least a little differently without the assassination. Bobby, on the other hand, is another story. I don’t know if he could have won in the general but if he had I think he would have been a true icon in our presidential history books. Heck, he would have continued to do everything he damn well could to help the people even if he had gotten trounced.
