Former Kennedy Staffers Launch Pro-Trump PAC to ‘Make America Healthy Again’
Anew health-centered political action committee (PAC) launched Wednesday to push supporters for environmental lawyer Robert F. Kennedy to cast ballots in favor of former President Donald Trump.
The PAC, titled Make America Healthy Again (MAHA), is run by a dozen senior staffers who ran Kennedy’s independent presidential campaign. The third-party candidate dropped out to endorse the Republican nominee last month.
“Three great causes drove me to enter this race in the first place,” Kennedy said the day after Democrats concluded their convention in Chicago. “And these are the principle causes that persuaded me to leave the Democratic Party and run as an independent, and now to throw my support to President Trump.”
Kennedy’s endorsement immediately crashed the Democrats’ “sugar high” from the DNC, threatening to spoil Vice President Kamala Harris’s roughly two-point lead. The independent candidate polled around 5 percent throughout August in the aggregate of surveys by RealClearPolitics.
Kennedy ran on a three-pillared platform against censorship, a U.S.-funded forever war in Ukraine, and the runaway epidemic of chronic disease — a platform now at the center of a new campaign to drive independent votes for Trump.
