00:00Recently, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. dropped out of the presidential race, which wasn't unexpected.
00:05What was surprising to some was his endorsement of Donald Trump, and among those shocked was
00:10apparently his wife, actress Cheryl Hines.
00:13RFK Jr. recently appeared on TMZ Live, saying that her reaction to his decision to support
00:18the GOP candidate was the quote, opposite of encouraging, telling the news outlet, she's
00:24a lifelong Democrat, and the idea of me supporting Donald Trump was like I said, it was something
00:28she would have never imagined, something that she never wanted in her life.
00:32Hines is best known for her role on the Mac's formerly HBO show, Kirby Enthusiasm, written
00:38and starring Larry David.
00:40RFK Jr. says the decision has caused her a lot of discomfort, saying that she was not
00:44clamoring for this move, and that the opposite is true.
00:48However, Kennedy also said that when he got the call from Trump, Hines actually encouraged
00:52him to take the meeting.
00:54Meanwhile, Bradley Whitford of West Wing fame has criticized fellow actor Hines on X, writing,
00:59hey, at Cheryl Hines, way to stay silent while your lunatic husband throws his support behind
01:05the adjudicated rapist who brags about stripping women of their fundamental rights.
