Adam Walinsky (born 1937, died 2023) was a lawyer who served in the United States Department of Justice and as a speechwriter for Robert F. Kennedy.[1] He had also been the 1970 nominee for New York Attorney General by the Democratic Party.[2] He criticized Ira Stoll's efforts to claim John F. Kennedy as a political conservative saying that Kennedy had moved to the left near the end of his life.[3] In 2016 he endorsed Donald Trump in large part due to concerns the Democratic Party had become too supportive of war.[4]
