Rep. Joe Kennedy III, D-Mass., announced Saturday that he will mount a primary challenge to Sen. Ed Markey, D-Mass., next year.

At least Trump single handedly ended both the clinton and bush dynasties. Perhaps he can quash the kenndy’s too
The Drooler
Outside of the Massachusetts liberal ghetto, the Kennedys are nothing.
Ed Markey will join a long and undistinguished list of Massachusetts politicians who were ground to dust by the Kennedy-clan. Have fun being a historical footnote, Ed.
Just what the nation needs, another Kennedy to _ things up.
How many drunken nights and mistresses are destined to be reported in this guy’s future?
I realize he isn’t responsible for the clan’s past history, but the K family has a terrible track record.
I’d say no on G. P.
idiot Markey in trouble, nostalgia alone will put this punk in the Senate - score one for nepotism and dynasties.
And a drooling Ginger, to boot

Has he taught government or civics? Served in the military?
Just curious.
