Bradley Whitford is speaking his mind in light of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" star Cheryl Hines standing by her husband Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as he endorses Donald Trump for president.

"Hey @CherylHines, way to stay silent while your lunatic husband throws his support behind the adjudicated rapist who brags about stripping women of their fundamental rights," Whitford, 64, wrote in a post on X, formerly Twitter, Saturday.

Trump, who has had more than a dozen sexual misconduct accusations levied against him, last year was found liable for sexual abuse and defamation of advice columnist E. Jean Carroll; however, the jury in the civil trial decided Carroll failed to prove he raped her in 1996.

Whitford continued: "Gutsy. Great example for the kids. Profile in courage."

The Emmy-winning "The West Wing" and "The Handmaid's Tale" actor's comment was shared along with a re-post of a video Vice President Kamala Harris' presidential campaign posted, in which former President Trump thanked the "six very brave, brilliant" Supreme Court justices who overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022.

Whitford's condemnation came a day after Kennedy – the nephew of former President John F. Kennedy and son of former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy – announced he was dropping out of the race and backing Trump's campaign.

Hines took to social media to praise his staffers shortly after Kennedy's campaign's announcement. Unlike her husband, she did not endorse any candidate or political party.

"Over the last year and a half, I have met some extraordinary people from all parties — Democrats, Republicans, and Independents. It's been my experience that the vast majority of all parties are truly good people who want the best for our country and for each other," she wrote.

Kennedy responded to her post with his own message of gratitude: "I am so grateful to my amazing wife Cheryl for her unconditional love, as I made a political decision with which she is very uncomfortable. I wish this also for the country — love and unity even in the face of disagreement. We will need that in coming times."

Whitford has been vocal in his support for Vice President Harris's presidential campaign and often posts anti-Trump content.

Kennedy's family also disavowed the former Independent presidential candidate for supporting Trump.

His sister, Kerry Kennedy, said in a statement co-signed by four other family members that "Our brother Bobby's decision to endorse Trump today is a betrayal of the values that our father and our family hold most dear. It's a sad ending to a sad story."

"I understand that they're troubled by my decisions," Kennedy told "Fox News Sunday." "But, you know, I think we all need to be able to disagree with each other and still love each other."
