Kamala Harris had a terse reply to Trump’s plan: “No.”

Donald Trump said Thursday that vaccine conspiracy theorist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. would be in charge of “women’s health” if the former president is reelected to the White House.

The comments reflect Kennedy’s growing role in a potential administration and his rising standing in the Trump orbit after he dropped his independent bid for the presidency and endorsed his onetime competitor. But calls for a senior position have troubled health advocates, who point to Kennedy’s long history as a skeptic of widely accepted science surrounding vaccines. Those concerns grew this week after the co-chair of the team planning Trump’s potential transition said Kennedy had persuaded him in a 2.5-hour meeting that vaccines caused autisma widely debunked stance.

The Harris campaign was quick to share footage of Trump’s plans for Kennedy on Thursday, and Harris herself tweeted a short response to her opponent’s pledge: “No.”

    Vance is a bigger problem, he’s a billionaire sponsored corporate entity and he’s going to end up President.

    Thiel replaced Epstein on the board of Carbyne, Mossad’s research and development company.

    Vance is a dubious corporate character. Beware.

      This is exactly it. I keep waking up expecting to read that Trump died in his sleep, that’s how unhealthy he looks.

      This is the Vance for President campaign, trump is just the fuel in the car that drives him there.

        I figure they need Trump to also do a bunch of crimes when he’s in office before they pull the plug on him… That way he can blamed whilst they keep all the power.
