Kennedy doesn't care about MA. If he cared about it he would stay as a house member and serve his district instead of primarying someone (who he probably barely has any meaningful policy difference with) just so he can use the senate seat as a stepping stone to winning the presidency in 4 years time.

Ed Markey has spent most of his life serving MA and obviously he is not going to run for anything else. I am all for a younger legislative branch however kicking someone out just because someone with the right surname can advance his career is just distasteful and exposes the motives of Joe Kennedy.

Honestly, the only politician who has any sort of credibility when they criticize the Iraq war is Barbara Lee. She was the only person who voted against "Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Terrorists" resolution. This basically set the stage for Iraq war and any possible future wars.

In short, it is easy to judge people from our 2020 view but lets face it, Kennedy would've voted for both for this and Iraq war. His arguments about primarying Markey is very laughable and transparent. I really hope his career ends soon.
