CNN’s Tapper slams Trump and RFK Jr’s plan: 'There aren’t even words to describe what hackery that is'

CNN host Jake Tapper on Wednesday blasted Donald Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s plan to join forces to take over medical government agencies.

"I'm gonna let him go wild on health," Trump said this week, referring to Kennedy. "I'm gonna let him go wild on the food. I'm going to let him go wild on medicines."

Tapper told viewers, "So that's Donald Trump describing a role for Robert F. Kennedy Jr. — if he were to win a second term — RFK Jr. seemingly affirmed the former president's words."

The CNN host rolled a clip of Kennedy saying, "Earlier this week President Trump promised me as control of the public health agencies which are HHS, and it's agencies, CDC FDA, NIH, which is key to making America healthy."

Tapper then said, "Just a reminder, RFK Jr has no medical license, and has made wildly inaccurate claims about all sorts of medicines. Frankly, this is what he said — kind of a deranged remark — about coronavirus."

Tapper played a clip, in which Kennedy could be heard saying, "In fact, Covid-19, there's an argument that it is ethnically targeted. A great proportion of Covid-19 is targeted to attack Caucasians and Black people. The people who are most immune are Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese."

The Lead with Jake Tapper host added, "I mean, there aren't even words to describe what hackery that is wildly inaccurate plenty of Chinese people, plenty of Ashkenazi Jews died because of coronavirus actual medical professionals are sounding the alarm about RFK Jr. playing any sort of role in health care with this country."
