Author Maureen Callahan (“Ask Not: The Kennedys and the Women They Destroyed”) wastes no words when it comes to JFK’s grandson, Jack Schlossberg. She goes right for the kill.
“This kid has problems. He’s never had a real job. He spends his time roaming around the aisles of CVS recording himself lip synching. This is the kind of Kennedy the Kennedy family used to lobotomize and hide. He trolls people online who are far more intelligent and accomplished than he is, but he reminds people that he went to Harvard.”
Schlossberg announced recently he’s running for Congress to serve NY-12, which is in Manhattan. The press was receptive to the news, although critics on the left and the right chimed in citing Schlossberg’s social media presence rather than his knowledge of policy issues. With some 800,000 followers on Instagram and 900,000 on Tik Tok
JFK’s grandson promises to serve New York through “optimism, positivity, courage (think “Profiles in Courage”), and strength.” Generic and non-specific, wouldn’t you say?
But there’s another contender for the NY-12 Congressional seat. He’s Jewish activist, Cameron Kasky. At 25 years old, Kasky admits winning is a long shot. “Please donate to me online, all of my opponents have a lot of very rich friends and I can’t necessarily say the same about myself,” he stated in a campaign video. (The Kennedy family fortune was estimated at $1.2 billion by Forbes in 2015.)
It doesn’t look good for Kasky, who incidentally survived the Parkland school shooting back in 2018. Schlossberg has most of the media on his side, kneeling before his flexing hunk’s body, like sycophants in a gay bathhouse.
El Mundo America reported: “Jackie and John F. Kennedy’s only grandson has inherited the beauty and intelligence of his ancestors….a body chiseled by Greek gods.” Later, the report gushed over how Jack loves discussing “climate change…and having his apartment filled with fresh flowers.”
But not all the press has been complimentary. In 2024, Financial Times reported on Schlossberg, calling him an “Ivy League lunk head,” adding, “The Kennedy myth never dies — it just gets weirder.”
Even The New York Times downplayed the lunk head’s entry into politics with the headline, “Jack Schlossberg, Scion of the Kennedy Family, Gives Politics a Try,” before quoting JFK’s grandson as saying, “I’m not for everybody.” The choice of the word “scion” is interesting; visually it conjures up tentacles in the insecticide world. Words as subliminal message-senders cannot be beat.
Schlossberg, has been documenting his political and personal nervous breakdowns on social media for a number of years now.
All of Schlossberg’s rants castigating Donald Trump, his uncle RFK Jr. or famed attorney Alan Dershowitz, offer ample proof that he has descended into a dark nether world also inhabited by his mother, Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg.
Caroline Kennedy adopted her son’s penchant for rants when she attacked RFK Jr. after his nomination for Health Secretary. In that video she called him a predator, essentially breaking Kennedy family rules about publicly attacking another Kennedy family member.
Alan Dershowitz explains on “The Dershow” how he became very close to the Kennedy family when he was defending Ted Kennedy at Chappaquiddick. In fact, Dershowitz was such close friends with the family that he participated in their touch football games in Hyannis Port. The friendship ended when he began defending Donald Trump in court. He was made aware of this, he says, when he was invited to a dinner party and was seated next to Caroline Kennedy, who did not say hello to him but bluntly stated that had she known he was coming to dinner she would have made sure he was not seated next to her.
When Dershowitz asked Kennedy for an explanation, she mentioned his defense of Trump. He then says he reminded her that he was only doing his job as a lawyer, just as he did when he defended her uncle.
The debacle got worse when Dershowitz says he was on a plane and was seated directly behind Caroline’s husband, Edwin Schlossberg. Dershowitz extended a greeting but Schlossberg ignored him, even as Dershowitz kept reminding Schlossberg of his long friendship with the family.
The snub was proof that toxic left-wing Democrat politics had eaten the soul of the Kennedy family.
When President Trump released 80,000 previously sealed documents related to the 1963 Kennedy assassination, Schlossberg stated on social media that both Trump and RFK Jr. are “only interested in JFK’s carcass.”
The Daily Mail’s report on Schlossberg’s rant over the release of the sealed JFK documents included a photo of him in a hoodie looking very deranged. Meanwhile, the lefty press gave the former president’s grandson the benefit of the doubt and found his antics “charming.”
After Schlossberg’s appointment as a Vogue’s political writer in 2024, the lefty fashion magazine did a hagiographic profile of him that minimized his social media posts as “weird, charming videos.”
“Jack Schlossberg is unmistakably a Kennedy,” the piece began. “With his towering frame, dark hair, and strong jawline, the 31-year-old is the spitting image of his uncle John F. Kennedy Jr. To a younger generation, however, he is more notably the man behind a series of outré TikToks filled with colorful characters, playful ditties, and lots (and lots) of props.”
