West Wing alum Bradley Whitford was giving notes to fellow actor Cheryl Hines and they werent about her performance in Curb Your Enthusiasm.

In a sarcastic call-out on X Saturday, Whitford accused Hines of remaining silent after her spouse, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. , suspended his campaign for president and endorsed Republican Donald Trump .

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 wrote with a video of Trump thanking U.S. Supreme Court judges three of whom the former president appointed for overturning Roe v. Wade.

Gutsy. Great example for the kids. Profile in courage, Whitford told Hines in a snarky reference to John F. Kennedys book Profiles in Courage .

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. Gutsy. Great example for the kids. Profile in courage. https://t.co/DrhXY3npcF

On Friday, after RFK Jr. announced his election withdrawal and allegiance to Trump, Hines praised her husbands decision to run on the principle of unity in a thank-you to campaign workers on X.

In January, Hines appeared to half-joke that a political arrangement with Trump could end her marriage. Asked then by Variety at a final-season Curb red carpet if Kennedy would consider being Trumps running mate, Kennedy replied, I dont think that my marriage would survive it.
