The three women, who know Kennedy through Children’s Health Defense, an anti-vaccine group he chairs, have been sharing their alleged experiences in text messages with others in the wake of the scandal involving Kennedy and New York magazine correspondent Olivia Nuzzi.

The source said Trump’s top advisers and donors see Kennedy as a problem for the campaign, particularly given the news of his alleged infidelity comes on the heels of unfounded rumors that the former president himself was having an affair with Laura Loomer, a conspiracy theorist who traveled with his campaign for several days last month. Loomer vehemently denied any affair with Trump and mocked those who suggested it.

Kennedy has long been dogged by allegations of infidelity. In diaries obtained by the New York Post after the 2012 death by suicide of his first wife, Mary Richardson, Kennedy reportedly kept a “ledger” tallying the dozens of women he slept with while married.

Some people close to Mary have criticized Kennedy for how he treated his late wife. Last year, in a scathing post to social media, Billy Baldwin said Mary “cried on my shoulder about Bobby numerous times” before her death. “If Bobby were half a man she would still be alive today, Baldwin wrote. “It will all come out. His campaign will be over in weeks. If these walls could talk.

In the diaries, Kennedy reportedly described himself as a victim of the women he said pursued him for sex, encounters he described as “muggings. He allegedly wrote that his greatest flaw was “my lust demons, and that he had to “avoid the company of women. You have not the strength to resist their charms.

    lol. Considering Trump’s past with multiple marriages, rapes, Stormy Daniels, etc, this will only make him and his people think more of RFK.

    Are we still under the assumption that Republican voters care about infedelity? Donald Trump has been their god king for a decade now and he’s the least faithful husband in America. Obviously this kind of thing is not shifting views in any way.

      They are afraid that Trump will see this, think RFK is trying to top him, and start bragging about how many affairs he’s had.

    Bobby Kennedy would roll over in his grave if he knew what kind of person his son had turned into.

    Edit: for reasons other than his philandering. That part is very on brand.

      Maybe so, but RFK Jr’s uncle had Marilyn Monroe on his “ledger”, among others, so the infidelity is in the genes.

      ‘He apparently told brother Bobby, not exactly a monk himself, "I get a migraine headache if I don’t get a strange piece of ass every day."1

      That’s JFK talking to Bobby about his sexual needs—or maybe we should call them his sexual pathologies, since he apparently requires novel sex in order to prevent brain malfunction and pain.

      Note the bit about how Bobby was “not exactly a monk himself”

      So personally, I see RFK Jr’s rapacious sexuality as him proudly carrying on an old family tradition.

    “Affairs cannot get a security clearance at higher level government appointment jobs because they can be used as blackmail, the operative said.

    I have to assume anyone marrying a (divorced bc of cheating) Kennedy doesn’t expect fidelity.

      I’m not sure why you assume his wife was consenting, and apparently the Trump campaign gives a fuck, which is what makes it news.
