RFK Jr. Is a One-Man Plague
AT A NEW YORK RALLY IN OCTOBER, Donald Trump promised the crowd that if elected, he would let Robert F. Kennedy Jr. “go wild” on health, food, and medicines. It delighted the crowd, who imagined they were cheering for better health and better medicine. They’re in for a bitter surprise.
Some, like former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg, have correctly responded to the Kennedy selection with alarm (“beyond dangerous”), but others who should know better are offering cautious approval.
“Well, he has a point about fluoride in the water,” a Washington Post columnist conceded. American healthcare has “become too reliant on treating every matter of discomfort with a pill instead of tackling questions about environment, culture, and behavior,” mused a New York Times contributor.
They seem to think we can take what we like from the Kennedy buffet and leave the rest. Not so. If he is confirmed, we won’t get only the 3 percent of Kennedy ideas that are sane, we will be saddled with the 97 percent that are deranged. It isn’t that Kennedy is merely misinformed—though he is. It’s that he’s an active agent of misinformation. That’s a character problem. Hiring him to run health policy for this country is like hiring an arsonist to head the fire department.

Mona Charen, right-wing Republican tool, may be having second thoughts about what her rabid GOP support for decades has led to.
