RFK Jr says there are ‘boxes and boxes of McDonald’s’ on Air Force One, and it may be the most truthful thing he’s ever said
RFK Jr, the US Secretary for Health and Human Services, has recently appeared on the Net Positive podcast, speaking to comedian John Crist about – amongst other things – Donald Trump’s diet.

In the podcast, which you can watch here, RFK Jr added –
“Trump actually eats really good food most of the time, but when he’s travelling, he likes to eat food from national chains because he’s scared of getting food poisoning.”

“I once told the Secretary of Health and Human Services that I only eat boxes and boxes of McDonald’s to avoid food poisoning.”
Anyway …this is what people thought of RFK Jr’s rare moment of honesty.

Amazing to me that a president can’t brown bag it on his own plane. It doesn’t have a fridge? No fruit is portable?

That’s not a plane, that’s a drive-thru with wings.

Imagine being president and your biggest travel security concern is getting food poisoning from a local restaurant. pic.twitter.com/tfYpwTjkOd
