Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is seeing his star rise after President-elect Trump glided to a second White House victory on Tuesday, a remarkable trajectory for someone who was long dismissed as a fringe political figure.

RFK Jr. has said Trump promised him “control of the public health agencies,” including the National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. He’s talked about cleaning up “corruption” at those agencies and reorienting them towards a chronic disease focus (in a page on his MAHA website that has since been scrubbed).

Longtime Democrat and vaccine skeptic Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is poised to take a health role in a new Trump administration and wage war on chronic disease by attacking everything from fluoride in drinking water to sugary drinks paid for by food stamps.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has vowed to combat "the chronic disease epidemic in this country" in the Trump administration, with the slogan "Make America Healthy Aagain."

Kennedy Jr.'s website is seeking suggestions for more than 4,000 posts to be appointed by President-elect Donald Trump across the U.S. government. Kennedy said he has been promised a leadership role overseeing efforts to improve health-care policy in the United States.
