JFK grandson Jack Schlossberg, who’s been touting his alleged opposition to the U.S. aiding Israel with weapons, now all of a sudden has pivoted.
Either that or Schlossberg has decided the only way to win a NYC congressional seat is to court Jewish voters by lying about how he really feels.
“The Kennedy scion has declared on Instagram that he supports ‘no weapons to Israel,’” reports Politico. “His team says he’s the ‘only candidate’ seeking to block ‘bombs and bulldozers’ to the country.”
Moreover, Schlossberg has harshly criticized two of his opponents for purportedly believing in unconditional military support for Israel.
But behind closed doors – and speaking with members of one of New York City’s most exclusive private clubs – he went rogue.
“I probably would have continued funding Israel’s offensive weaponry within the years following October 7th,” Schlossberg told members of the swanky Harmonie Club at a private ‘meet and greet,’” according to a recording of the event obtained by Politico.
The club, founded by Jewish German immigrants, is the second-oldest private social club in the city.
“I have been a stronger supporter of Israel than I ever thought I would be standing here today with you, because of educating myself on the issue,” Schlossberg also said at the event. “That is ultimately I think a sign of leadership and what a congressperson should do.”
Schlossberg, who has four opponents in the June 23 primary, is seeking to replace longtime U.S. Rep. Gerald Nadler.
He has sought to distinguish himself as the only major candidate willing to condition or even halt military aid to Israel in recent social-media posts
Schlossberg is the son of Ed Schlossberg and Caroline Kennedy, daughter of the assassinated president and Jacqueline Kennedy.
Hell.
ANYBODY but Nadler .
I hope Jerry goes the way of Corwin and Green .
