Hewitt argues not only that Bobby is no longer with us, but that the party that produced him no longer exists. Having raised him and his older brother, and heeded his speech after Martin Luther King had been murdered, the Democratic Party has altered itself beyond recognition, and is no longer with us, he argued.
RFK’s grandson shot back that the party is still pretty much as his grandfather left it, and that Hewitt’s idea is “grotesque.”
After Bobby was murdered, the party collapsed, and then veered sharply left for the next two generations. It allowed the civil rights movement to collapse into identity politics, endorsed the concept of something for nothing, defined the enforcement of law as forced occupation, and swallowed in its entirety the whole of the Left’s cultural revolution
The Democrats have become the party of gender confusion, which would not have been an easy sell, one would guess, for Jack or for Bobby. They have also become the party of late term abortion, extended by Democrats just this past winter to cover the whole nine-month span.
If this is your idea of the party of John or of Bobby, then there’s a bridge in Massachusetts that I’d like to sell you.
The Party of Bobby died soon after he did, which was a great pity. Nothing since then has ever replaced it, and we really could use it again.
