What do you expect from a blueblood who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth because his ancestors were opium pushers?

Where the story gets interesting is with Kerry’s grandparents — more specifically, his Brahmin mother’s side, the Forbes family. The history of his maternal great grandfather, Francis Forbes, is largely scrubbed and highly disingenuous. For example, he’s often cited as a “China merchant,” when in actuality he was an opium dealer operating in China. This was the fountainhead of Forbes’ wealth. We have a follow-up article on the opium trade, but at one point 30 million Chinese were addicted and the country was a wreck.
