White House puts RFK Jr. on road ahead of crucial midterms

The White House has put Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on the road ahead of November's midterm elections.

Kennedy has been showing up in key battleground House districts in recent weeks, touting his Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) agenda to improve the nation's food and promoting similar administration initiatives.

It's a sign that far from being sidelined, the White House views Kennedy as an important asset in trying to help Republicans keep control of government.

"When President Trump pledged to Make America Healthy Again, he launched a nationwide movement and call to action for parents, educators, researchers, food companies, and local lawmakers," White House spokesperson Kush Desai told The Hill in a statement.

My comment about him sharing his supply is the absurdity of the Trump Whitehouse's belief that he will benefit them in the midterms. He won't for the reasons you state.

about RFK Jr. "sharing his supply." He's implying that Bobby is still using. He can't find a legitimate reason to criticize him so he resorts to an ad hominem. Despicable behavior. Many examples on DU of trying to marginalize RFK Jr. based on a former drug problem that he beat. Same with Hegseth ("Kegsbreath" ). Nothing progressive about that whatsoever. 👎
