Donald Trump stirred up controversy after taking to Truth Social to share takedowns of the Kennedy family, mere hours after the tragic death of JFK’s granddaughter Tatiana Schlossberg at 35 years old. Even if Trump wasn’t addressing Schlossberg, many on social media found his timing tasteless and cruel as the Kennedy family mourns the loss of one of their own. CNN’s Jake Tapper called out Trump’s behavior on X, sharing screenshots of the president’s Kennedy bashing and writing; “In the early afternoon, ET, the Kennedy family announced that JFK’s granddaughter Tatiana Schlossberg had died from cancer. A few hours later, President Trump re-posted some social media garbage attacking the Kennedy family.”It’s not the first time this month Trump has made headlines for attacking a grieving family. It’s like why… if you say that privately that’s one thing, which is also crazy, but it’s so disappointing.”
