Democrat 2024 presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has warned the American people that the Democratic Party has become “the party of war.”
Kennedy issued the warning while blasting his own party’s current foreign policy objectives during a Twitter Spaces discussion with Elon Musk.
“I’ve watched this happen to the Democrat, I’ve watched some of this happen,” RFK Jr. said during the group discussion.
“I mean, I think the Democratic Party became the party of war,” he added.
Kennedy places the blame on Democrat President Joe Biden.
“Although I’ve always liked him, the one part of him that I did not like is that he’s always been a very, very – in favor of very bellicose, pugnacious and aggressive foreign policy,” continued Kennedy, who is consistently polling between 10 and 20 percent among Democrat voters.
“And he believes that violence is a legitimate political tool for achieving America’s objectives abroad, and in many cases, it is the first and most prominent tool that the federal uses,” he noted.
Kennedy highlighted the efforts of his uncle, the late Senator Ted Kennedy (D-MA).
Sen. Kennedy was vehemently opposed to the Iraq War from the outset.
“During the Iraq War, when my uncle was fighting against that war, Joe Biden in the Democratic Party more than any other senator was the man who was promoting that war,” the presidential hopeful said.
“And I think that’s one of the reasons he got the support of the neocons.”
Kennedy discussed foreign policy at length over the two-hour discussion.
The Twitter discussion topped out around 65,000 live viewers on Monday afternoon.
Among the topics discussed was the issue of biological weapons programs around the world, both from the U.S. government and other nations.
Kennedy blasted the efforts while arguing for an end to such programs.
“And it’s not just AI, it’s these bioweapons development where we have these labs now all over the world, in Ukraine, etc., that are developing all kinds of hideous bioweapons, including ethnic bioweapons that kill people from certain races,” he said.

Kennedy has repeatedly disagreed with Biden’s aggressive approach to the Ukraine conflict.
“Let’s face it, the Neocons wanted this war with Russia, just as they wanted war with Iraq,” Kennedy said last month.
“Zelensky almost certainly could have avoided the 2022 war with Russia simply by uttering five words — ‘I will not join NATO.’
“But pressured by NeoCons in the Biden White House,” he continued.
“Zelensky integrated his army with NATO’s and allowed the U.S. to place nuclear-capable Aegis missile launchers along Ukraine’s 1,200-mile border with Russia.”
