Trump Open to RFK Jr. Leadership on Health and Food in Potential Second Term

[Social Media]

 

Former President Donald Trump recently expressed enthusiasm for involving Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in addressing health, food, and medicine issues if he were to serve a second term. Speaking to a crowd at Madison Square Garden, Trump said, “I’m going to let him go wild on health. I’m going to let him go wild on the food. I’m going to let him go wild on the medicines.” Trump, however, specified that Kennedy’s influence would not extend to energy resources, particularly oil, saying, “The only thing I don’t think I’m going to let him even get near is the liquid gold that we have under our feet.”

 

Kennedy, a former environmental lawyer and vocal critic of pharmaceutical companies, had launched an independent presidential campaign before stepping aside in August, ultimately endorsing Trump. Since then, he has taken up an initiative within Trump’s campaign called “Make America Healthy Again.” Throughout his career, Kennedy has focused on the health effects of processed foods and chemical additives in the U.S. food supply, advocating for stricter regulations.

 

His involvement in Trump’s plans for a second term has, however, sparked criticism, particularly due to his controversial stance on vaccines. Kennedy has faced considerable backlash for his opposition to mainstream vaccine policies. Although he has denied being entirely anti-vaccine, his track record includes promoting debunked theories and spreading skepticism about vaccine safety. In a congressional hearing last year, he refuted accusations that he had discouraged vaccinations, saying, “I never told people not to get vaccinated.” However, in a podcast interview two years prior, he admitted to frequently advising strangers against vaccinating their children. 

 

Kennedy has also made contradictory statements on vaccines in the media. On CNN in December, he denied suggesting that no vaccines were “safe and effective,” although he was previously recorded stating this exact phrase in an interview last July. The conflicting messages have only fueled concerns among public health officials and medical experts regarding Kennedy’s potential influence on national health policy in a future Trump administration.

A nut job like RFK Jr. should not be allowed anywhere near the federal government. It is so typical of Trump, to select his cabinet from the bottom of the barrel. They lack of talent in his last administration was astonishing. He reminds me of the way politics are managed here. Merit is never a consideration.

Stop smoking weed and cigs, so you don't eat Taco Bell made with Dorito shells washed down with a Mountain Dew and don't stick needles in your arm for any reason whether illegal;l or imagined government mandated threats. 

 

America became fat and sick the quickest and could easily reverse that trend. It really isn't hard.

Neither should a nut job like Trump.  But it's looking increasingly likely that that might just happen.

His October surprise has  derailed that possibility.

Why are Americans the fattest, most out of shape, healthily unfit people in the world? Because they've been fattened up on bad food, terrible health policies, and one government after another beholden to Big Ag and Big Pharma. How many people would take the mRNA covid vaccine if they had it to do over? I know I'm happy I got two shots of the Chinese vaccine instead.
