Hollywood film actor Woody Harrelson appeared to throw his support behind Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., donning a Kennedy 2024 cap and posing in a recent photo with Mr. Kennedy’s wife, actress Cheryl Hines.
While Ms. Hines’s Instagram post strongly implied Mr. Harrelson’s endorsement of her husband’s presidential campaign, Mr. Harrelson has yet to address the matter directly.
NTD News reached out to Mr. Harrelson’s representatives for comment but they did not answer by the time this article was published.
Mr. Kennedy is a graduate of Harvard University and has led a career as an environmental lawyer, successfully suing government agencies and companies accused of contaminating waterways. Mr. Kennedy also founded Children’s Health Defense, which has criticized certain vaccines and advocated for health freedom and bodily autonomy.
Mr. Kennedy is currently challenging the Democratic incumbent, President Joe Biden, for the party’s 2024 presidential nomination, as is author Marianne Williamson.
Fans React To Harrelson Photo
The Instagram post has garnered more than 15 thousand likes in the past day, as well as more than 1,000 comments.“Omgosh this makes me so happy!” author and podcaster Cathy Heller wrote, with clapping emojis. “The support is going to be rolling out more and more as people begin to share how they really feel. I love you.”
“RFK, Jr has got my vote and my 93 year old momma’s vote. The future First Lady is mighty cool too…and so is Woody!” read another reply comment.
While some comments celebrated the endorsement, others ridiculed Mr. Kennedy, Ms. Hines, and Mr. Harrelson.
“Woody, I love you, but I can’t be on your side politically, since a Kennedy candidacy could potentially give us Trump again!” read another reply comment. “Politics sucks [expletive] these days, but I’m just biting my tongue and voting Biden again, as it’s the only viable way of moving our democracy forward. I really wish we had another Obama this time around, but it is what it is.”
Harrelson and Kennedy Criticized for Vaccines Stances
Mr. Harrelson and Mr. Kennedy have both been critical of the COVID-19 vaccine rollout.“The movie goes like this—the biggest drug cartels in the world get together and buy up all the media and all the politicians, and force all the people in the world to stay locked in their homes—and people only can come out if they take the cartels’ drugs and keep taking them over and over,” he said. “I threw the script away—I mean who’s going to believe that crazy idea.”
