“Healthy America”? Trump and Kennedy Jr gorge on burgers

Just days after promising to “Make America Healthy Again,” President-elect Donald Trump and his future health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. were photographed gorging on burgers and fries from McDonald’s.

“Making America healthy again starts TOMORROW,” ironically wrote Donald Trump Jr, the president-elect’s eldest son, posting on Instagram a photo of the dinner he attended, aboard his father’s plane, in the company also from billionaire Elon Musk and Republican Speaker of the House of Representatives Mike Johnson.

Donald Trump father and son Elon Musk and Robert F. Kennedy Jr traveled together to New York on Saturday evening to attend a mixed martial arts (MMA) event at Madison Square Garden.

Mr. Kennedy, an heir to the famous Democratic political family, campaigned with Mr. Trump before the November 5 presidential election by promising, among other things, to tackle “junk food.”

“For too long, Americans have lived crushed by the food industrial complex and pharmaceutical laboratories,” Mr. Trump said in announcing Mr. Kennedy’s nomination on Thursday.

On social networks, Internet users have pointed out that the future Minister of Health is the one who seems the least enthusiastic and the least smiling among the guests at the table.

Conspiracy theory believer and anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a 70-year-old lawyer, has long advocated that the United States curb its obesity epidemic by reducing high levels of sugar, fat and fat. processed foods with high additive content in the national diet.

Just last week, he was scathing about Donald Trump’s diet. “What he eats is really bad,” he told Joe Polish’s podcast, particularly attacking the menu offered on board the Republican billionaire’s plane.

“Country food is always bad, but the food that comes on the plane is real poison,” he said. “You have no choice, we either give you KFC or Big Macs.”

Mr. Trump has never hidden his love of fast food and Diet Coke, even stopping briefly to work at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania during his campaign. “I like salt!” he said on this occasion.
