Why did it have to be a Kennedy? Specifically, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.: a lifelong left-wing Democrat who spent decades as a trial lawyer, environmental activist, and vaccine skeptic. Last August, Kennedy ended his presidential campaign as an independent by endorsing Donald Trump, who shared, he said, the desire to “Make America Healthy Again” (MAHA). Kennedy’s prior record, his lack of conservative bona fides, and even his personal life are all reasons to watch him carefully during his tenure as secretary of health and human services, the position to which Trump appointed him.
But it would be unwise for conservatives to dismiss all of the claims he and those who support him have made, or to discredit all the actions HHS is taking under his leadership.
