Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he has changed his view of President Donald Trump, describing a shift in how he now characterizes the president following discussions and observations related to the war in Ukraine.
Kennedy, who previously held a different opinion of Trump, said his earlier perception was shaped by widely circulated portrayals.
He said his view has changed after what he described as direct exposure and observation of the president’s positions and reactions, particularly regarding the human toll of the ongoing conflict.

“Well, let me just say this, President Trump is exactly the opposite of everything that I believed him to be, you know. And you know I met I, you know, I basically drank the Kool Aid that he was this, you know, bombastic narcissist who didn’t read books or was ill informed and and then, you know, now I know exactly the opposite,” Kennedy said.
Kennedy said he now views Trump differently, particularly in how the president approaches the subject of war and casualties.
He said that Trump’s focus on loss of life on both sides of the Ukraine conflict stands apart from how he sees other political figures addressing the issue.
“He’s the opposite of a narcissist. He’s an empath. You will see that every time he talks about the Ukraine war, he talks about the casualties on both sides, you will not hear any Democrat ever talk about that, and he talks about the Russian kids who are dying,” Kennedy said.

According to Kennedy, the president receives regular updates on the situation in Ukraine and is affected by the reported casualty figures.
Kennedy said those reports include information about the number of children dying in the conflict, which he described as having a significant impact.
“He gets the reports every week, and he they make a huge impression on him about the death rate. 1000 kids a day are dying over there,” Kennedy said.
Kennedy also referenced his own family’s connection to the war, noting that his son served in Ukraine.
He said his son was the only member of his military unit to survive, which he cited as part of his perspective on the conflict and the human cost involved.
“My son fought in Ukraine, and he’s the only member of his military unit who survived. And he understands that these are people’s children, and he talks about that,” Kennedy said.
