During an appearance on MS NOW’s “The Weekend,” Jack Schlossberg, son of Caroline Kennedy, burst into laughter at the suggestion that Donald Trump might want to be given one of the “Profiles in Courage" awards that have been given to Democrats and Republicans alike.
Appearing to promote the upcoming ceremony for the award given annually by the Kennedy family to recognize displays of courage similar to those former President John F. Kennedy, Sclossberg was put on the spot by co-host Jackie Alemany.
“There have been a number of notable recipients who have received the JFK Profile in Courage award in the past decade,” Alemany prompted her guest. “There's Jerome Powell, Barack Obama, Mike Pence, George H.W. Bush, Zelenskyy, Gabby Giffords, Mitt Romney, John Lewis. Obviously, a number of those people are Republicans.”
“Given Donald Trump's proclivity for anything with the last name Kennedy on it and his love of receiving awards, is there anything that would ever warrant your family's consideration of Donald Trump receiving this award? Anything that he could do that would make you all consider that?” she asked.
After a short burst of laughter, Scholssberg smirked and checked off a list of suggestions for the always attention-starved president.
“If President Trump admitted to the many crimes and the grift that he has committed while president in office, stepped down and handed over the power of the presidency to somebody responsible and not somebody in his own cabinet,” he replied with tongue in cheek.
