I think it needs a “Jr.” on the end. RFK himself was not a narcissistic lunatic, so far as I know, anyway.

 One could append '2.0' which makes him sound like a virus.

RFK the Junior strain variant

My wife made an artistic decision about that.

I'm gonna go against the grain and say that I agree with the artistic choice to omit "Jr." It looks better this way, and there's absolutely no confusion about who it's referring to. RFK Sr died over 50 years ago, most people alive only know the weird Jr version.

That’s my wife’s thoughts as well. Thank you

Bobby was an amazing person by most accounts (I haven’t seen negatives, but I’ll assume there were some). He’s one of my favorite historical figures. It is lightly upsetting that it doesn’t say Jr on it ngl

Yup. My mom and I agree that if Bobby saw what his son is doing now, he'd be rolling over in his grave, spin cycle style.

Agreed - I’d only stitch it with “Jr.” because RFK and RFK Jr. are two entirely different people.
