Trump says he's going to let RFK Jr. 'pretty much do what he wants'
In his "closing message" in Pennsylvania, just a day before the 2024 election, former President Donald Trump touted his relationship with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Trump called the former independent presidential candidate "a credible guy" and said he’s going to be very involved in his administration.
"Bobby Kennedy, you know, he's a credible guy... He's going to be very much involved. You know, he's got a tremendous view on health and pesticides and all this stuff. And we're not really a healthy country," Trump said.
Then Trump said he would allow RFK Jr. "to pretty much do what he wants."
"Bobby's going to pretty much do what he wants. I want him to do something really important for our country, make people healthier," Trump said.
RFK Jr. previously said he would oversee public health agencies in Trump's administration including the Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Agriculture.
