Trump just dismantled the lies about RFK Jr. and vaccines on live TV.
No—RFK is not going to take away your vaccines.
Yes—RFK is going to find out the truth of the chronic disease crisis.
Watch this incredible exchange:🧵
REPORTER: “Do you believe there's a connection between vaccines and autism?”
TRUMP: “Look, right now, you have some very brilliant people looking at it.
I had dinner the other night with the head of Pfizer, the head of Eli Lilly, and, RFK, as you know, and Oz … If you look at autism 30 years ago, I've heard numbers of like 1 in 200,000, 1 in 100,000. Now, I'm hearing numbers of 1 in 100.
So something's wrong. There's something wrong, and we're gonna find out about it.”
Trump said that RFK Jr. is going to be “much less radical” than corporate media tells you.
REPORTER: “What do you say to people who are worried that RFK Jr.’s views on vaccines will translate into policies that'll make their kids less safe?”
TRUMP: “I think he's gonna be much less radical than you would think. I think he's got a very open mind, or I wouldn't have put him there.
But there are problems. I mean, we don't do as well as a lot of other nations, and those nations use nothing. We're gonna find out what those problems are.
We're paying far too much because we're paying much more than other countries and we have laws that make it impossible to reduce.
We're gonna get drug costs down at levels that nobody has ever seen before.”

REPORTER: “What about the polio vaccine?”
TRUMP: “Well … I think everything should be looked at, but I'm a big believer in the polio vaccine.”
Trump made it clear that his Administration will OPPOSE vaccine mandates.
REPORTER: “Do you think schools should mandate vaccines?”
TRUMP: “I don't like mandates. I'm not a big mandate person. So, you know, I was against mandates.
Mostly Democrat governors did the mandates … they made a big mistake, having to do with the education of children.
They lost a year or two years of their lives. The mandate was a bad thing.”
REPORTER: “Do you want RFK Jr. to revoke any vaccines?”
TRUMP: “No, I want him to come back with a report as to what he thinks.”
“You’re not gonna lose the polio vaccine. That's not gonna happen.”
“I think you're gonna find that Bobby is a very rational guy. I found him to be very rational.”
“We're doing two things. We're gonna have tremendous cost savings … That's a minimum. And we're also gonna have, and I think, very serious discussions about certain things … Europe doesn't use pesticides, and yet they have a better mortality rate than we do.
So, we're gonna have reports.
I saw what happened with the polio. I have friends that were very much affected by that. I have friends from many years ago and they're still in not such good shape because of it.”
