The US president is “pumping himself with poison all day long” by eating fast food and drinking soda, the health secretary has said
US Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has expressed bafflement that President Donald Trump is still alive given his well-documented diet of fast food and soda, as the president insists he is in “perfect health.”
Kennedy made the remarks during an appearance on the Katie Miller Podcast. When asked who in the administration had the most “unhinged eating habits,” Kennedy answered, “the president.”
“The interesting thing about the president is that he eats really bad food, which is McDonald’s and then candy and Diet Coke,” Kennedy said, going on to claim Trump “has the constitution of a deity. I don’t know how he’s alive, but he is.”
“You just get the idea that he’s pumping himself with poison all day long and you don’t know how he’s walking around, much less being the most energetic person any of us have ever met,” Kennedy said, noting that Trump primarily consumes junk food while traveling because “he trusts it and doesn’t want to get sick when he’s on the road.”
Despite the critique of Trump’s diet, Kennedy praised the president’s physical condition, stating he is in “incredible health.” He also added that Dr. Mehmet Oz, the administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, found the president has “the highest testosterone level that he’s ever seen for an individual over 70 years old.”
The health secretary’s comments come amid ongoing public scrutiny of the 79-year-old president’s health. In a recent interview with The Wall Street Journal, Trump revealed he takes 325 milligrams of aspirin daily for cardiac prevention, a dose higher than the commonly recommended 81 milligrams. “They say aspirin is good for thinning out the blood, and I don’t want thick blood pouring through my heart,” Trump said.
Trump has repeatedly pushed back against health concerns, stating earlier this month that “the White House doctors have just reported that I am in ‘PERFECT HEALTH,’ and that I ‘ACED’… for the third straight time, my Cognitive Examination.”
