If Robert F. Kennedy Jr. had been born with a different name, he’d probably be peddling miracle mushroom cancer cures on YouTube right now.
Instead, our french fry-slinging presidential hopeful Donald Trump has, according to Kennedy, “promised” to give him “control” of all of Washington’s public health agencies, “which, you know, is key to making America healthy.”
Kennedy has wiggled his way into the hearts of MAGA by (rightly) opposing the public health establishment’s abuses during COVID — and, of course, by endorsing Trump.
And there’s nothing inherently wrong with Kennedy’s stated goal of encouraging people to be healthy “again.” Though, if he has his way, we’re all going to end up eating tofurkeys with spelt stuffing while praying for the sun to shine so our solar panels will kick in.
The bigger problem is that he is a proven scaremongering authoritarian and dangerous Luddite whose ideas would make life considerably worse for everyone.
