    He straight up says he doesn’t have a problem with fast food, but with seed oils, and that suggests that fast food could be a pretty healthy meal, if it was made more like it was during the 50s-80s.

    Also, Kennedy serves as Secretary “at the pleasure of the President,” as they say.  I don’t know how “pro mRNA” Trump is, I think he supported the so called Covid Vaccines as a way to really reopen the country.  Plus, hundreds of millions of Americans wanted them.  Indeed, I have heard many say that he supported Warp Speed because he has too.  Really, Trump tried many avenues, including (rightly) calling Covid a fraud, and also endorsing therapeutics like Hydroxychloroquine.  “Warp Speed” was funded by the CARES act passed by Congress, with a veto proof majority.  Trump previously questioned the vaccine schedule- you can look up his tweets from as far back as 2012 where he talks about multiple vaccines administered at once causing Autism, as well as questions asked during the 2016 Republican Primary debate, where he repeated such beliefs.

    Regardless of that, Trump did nominate Kennedy and certainly helped get him confirmed, RFK said Trump did all he promised and more at his swearing in.  Trump also ordered the “MAHA commission” to look into the issues with chronic disease in America right after the confirmation.
