Wow. Elections really bring out the nation’s most disgusting, deplorable, degenerates.
“I didn’t eat that dog and assault that nanny, but if I did the brain worms made me do it - I’m not a church boy!”
This was the full quote for those of you who didn’t read the article.
Actual quote:
The Vanity Fair article also features Eliza Cooney, a former part-time babysitter who worked for Kennedy between 1998 and 1999, alleging that he groped her in his kitchen. Kennedy declined to directly acknowledge the sexual assault accusation at first, instead dismissing “the other allegations” as part of a “very, very rambunctious youth.”
“I’ve said this from the beginning. I am not a church boy. I am not running like that. I said … I had a very, very rambunctious youth. I said in my announcement speech that I have … so many skeletons in my closet, that if they could all vote, I could run for king of the world,” Kennedy said, adding, “Vanity Fair is recycling 30-year-old stories, and I, you know, am not gonna comment on the details of any of them.”
When asked directly whether he denied sexually assaulting Cooney, Kennedy repeated, “I’m not going to comment on it.”
This comes right after he directly and at length denied the allegations that he ate part of a dog.
Also, this part of his very, very rambunctious youth happened (allegedly) when he was 45 and had several children.
Saying “I had a rambunctious childhood” and “I’ve got so many skeletons in my closet” like it absolves him from anything…
“Yeah, I strangled that hooker while high on coke and while getting blown by that other hooker. So what? Why are you surprised? I told you I had a rambunctious childhood!”
Cue Warren Zevon
When a brain wormed, dog eating, sexual assaulter isn’t even the worst candidate in the election your know you’re in America baby.
“He ate out a dog. It’s a big difference.”
