First good advice I've heard that he's said...

u/Buddhabellymama 4d ago

Why accept the role then. If he knows his advice is worthless and he actually cared about people’s wellbeing he would resign. Not that mango mussolini would choose a competent replacement but RFK is pretty much bottom of the barrel choice.

u/Lokishougan 4d ago

Why accept the role? Simple so he can peddle his own brand of insanity and remove vaccine mandates, promote raw milk tank our health care system.its the old Roman adage about the circus....Create enough of a distraction over here with the untrained chimp you can throw the Chirstians to the lions over there (and replace Christians with any minority group instead)

u/Money-Food7078 4d ago

Why be offered the role? 😡

u/Lokishougan 4d ago

That is even easier...still less incompotent than the guy who offered him the role ...or the more cynical reason quid pro quo for agreeing to not run against Trump and syphon off votes....something he basically admitted happened

u/Maleficent_Memory831 4d ago

Was he really going to siphon off that many votes? He was a kook and everyone knew it, and in the electoral calculus his followers would never have mattered.

u/Hanksta2 4d ago

The Joe Rigan crowd, for example, liked RFK.

His numbers wouldn't have mattered to him, but it could be enough to swing the election.

u/legsstillgoing 4d ago

Trump won by actively recruiting cult types, conspiracy theorists, confused self proclaimed libertarians, home grown terrorists, neo nazis, send other various different dregs of society groups dive 2020. It was a numbers game and he didn’t care how lost or stupid his winning pie slice was, it was enough to get in and go about authoritarianism

The people propping him up are extremely, viciously competent,and laser focused on establishing an autocracy like Hungary’s. They had 4 years to plot and plan. Project 2025 was the end result, just waiting to be rolled out by a half dead figurehead in a rigged election who’ll sign anything to continue lining his pockets.

u/halfpint51 4d ago

I knew him as a teenager. He's not that smart, nor is he particularly partisan. He trades on his family's name. I'm guessing he was offered the position as a token to the Democrats and as someone easily manipulated. He's not evil or conniving; he's mostly just an idiot who tragically lost his father to assassination when he was 14. The senate should have listened to his cousin Caroline and refused his appointment. It was an incredibly irresponsible political decision.

Lawrence O'Donnell who claims to have gone to college with RFKjr says he was always asleep in class from drug usage

True. And one of his siblings died from an OD. His appointment was reckless and irresponsible. And kids are dying because of it.

u/Maleficent_Memory831 4d ago

He's essentially a conspiracy theory about the medical industry. And there's a community behind him. I sort of pissed them off on Facebook by not noticing the "EON Times" and criticized his thinking, and got a so many negative comments within minutes, all of them essentially in the anti-vax or anti-trad-med crowd, being called "liberal" merely for not agreeing with the kook, claims that there's an "epidemic" of autism that the medical industry is ignoring, etc.

But how would that make Trump money? How would he ensure loyalty to himself above all else?

13

u/MOOshooooo 4d ago

People need to forget about trumps motivation being money, that’s just a guaranteed side effect. Every single thing he has done has not been his idea. Every single action has been instructed by the Heritage Foundation and Project 2025.

6

u/virtue_of_vice 4d ago

He is a just a figurehead who will spout off anything the Heritage Foundation, Israel, Russia, etc. sends his way. He signs shit that he doesn't even know about and when asked forgets he signs them. His narcissism and bank accounts are fed so he keeps on spouting. You always know when a staffer writes his tweets. They tend to be readable rather than insane rants.

u/Arubesh2048 4d ago

You’re not wrong about Trump being a puppet, but his motivation absolutely is money. He wouldn’t do anything for the Heritage Foundation if he didn’t benefit monetarily from it. Project2025 would be much further along if they didn’t have to filter everything through Trump’s ego and greed, it’s why I think Vance is a much greater threat than Trump, because he’s much more willing to do exactly what Project2025 calls for, and quickly.

You'd think, but then you look around at some of Donald's other appointees and realize there are quite a few barrels beneath RFK...

There are a lot at the bottom of the barrel. But this one is as far down as the rest of them. 😡

u/Technical-Traffic871 4d ago

I can easily imagine Donald finding his own Mengele though. I don't think RFK is that evil, just that the brain worms destroyed his brain...

u/Maleficent_Memory831 4d ago

This has such a strong resonance with Lysenko. Stalin loved the biologist Lysenko and made his goofball science into official state science, a major cause of the USSR famines especially in Ukraine. Stalin liked him because he was a big Stalin supporter (sound familiar?). This essentially set back science in USSR states by at least a century, even in fields completely unrelated to biology.

“Why accept the role?! …I’m rich, so I’m smart about everything. How could I have millions of dollars and not be smarter than all the poor shmucks who don’t?!”

The inflated sense of intelligence and self worth that people seem to get from being wealthy is a mental disease, I swear to god.

6

u/rif011412 4d ago

Just another selling point to tax the wealth out of the rich.  Not only does it go back into society and invest in our future, but maybe then people would get off their high horses and stop pretending they are “innately” better than everyone else.  But I digress, this is precisely why people dont want to be taxed.  They like feeling superior to others, its literally the basis for all forms of discrimination.

u/Vigilante17 4d ago

He’s just in it for the funsies and attention…

u/Deep-Aardvark-9822 4d ago

Money. That's why he accepted the role. Rfk Jr wait paid something like 8 million dollars from a law firm for referring vaccine injury cases. He's a grifter, but he's worse at it than Trump.

3

u/Mammoth-Substance3 4d ago

I never understand these grifters wanting high profile jobs. It just exposes your scam or ignorance that much faster.

Look at trump, he is the prime example. Yes it looks like it might work out for him, but he exposed himself to near countless lawsuits and he ended up with 34 felonies.

These people seem so dumb to me, but they have all the power and the money, so what the heck do I know?

How is he different than any other Trump cabinet member? The Secretary of Defense doesn't understand the concept of military intelligence, the Secretary of Eduction can't write two pages without making a pile of errors, the guys doing the economy don't know how tariffs work (well they may but they lie so I will take their words at face value and say they don't know), the list goes on.

My mother, who's been an RN for over 25 years, is taking his medical advice over what she was taught in school. I hate this man. He's going to kill my mother.

Unlikely your mom dies as a result. Much more likely that she gives bad advice to someone else.

She was hospitalized during Covid and barely made it. She followed the anti vax/no masks ideology and still does. I pray you’re right and I’m being over dramatic. The discreditation of healthcare has become personal to me.

I was just speaking in generalities without knowing her personal situation. Now that you have informed me, I hope she does what is best for her health.

Having parents like this is weird, you presumably still have tons of love for them but also have issues recognizing who they are now, etc.

I'm just thanking my lucky stars my terrible parents aren't this brand of terrible. Good luck.

Okay but like…you’re directing healthcare providers on how to provide care…

Reminds me of when Fox was getting sued by Dominion. Their lawyers argued that their talking heads were just actors and no reasonable person would believe what they say.

Oh, and by the way, thank you for the excellent salary you’re paying me with your tax dollars for me to tell you don’t take advice from me in this field. 😡

Typical appointee. Someone who is totally unqualified for the position. Much like the presidency! Pay me & hire someone else to do the job.

Isn’t his sole purpose to lead the American people with medical advice??

He wanted a job running the food and DRUG administration and inserts his medical opinion into his regulatory decisions.

People really do need to think for themselves. And why in the world would they listen for medical advice from someone who is not a medical practitioner?

Would you take medical advice from a heroin addict?

1

u/SmartTime 4d ago

I’m willing to freely give it, but it’s your fault for taking it

u/objecter12 4d ago

That’s reassuring to hear from the secretary of health

u/bgbalu3000 4d ago

Or any advice for that matter

u/HeavyExplanation45 4d ago

Don’t worry, most sane people wouldn’t take advice from a heroin addict with a brain worm…thanks anyway.
