The historic alliance between former Democrat presidential candidate (and MAHA icon) Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and President Trump was one of the most unusual and important political events of the last decade. The alignment between MAHA (composed mostly of disaffected liberal voters) and MAGA (composed mostly of conservative Trump supporters) was the sort of coalition politics that many experts thought was impossible in a hyper-polarized America.
It turned out to be President Trump’s most consequential endorsement of the 2024 campaign.
This alignment was based upon a grand bargain: MAHA voters supported Trump on the condition that RFK Jr. would be elevated into a position inside the cabinet of the second Trump Administration from which he could implement the MAHA movement’s policy agenda — which included a complete halt to the wildly unpopular COVID vaccine policies that had started with Trump’s “Operation Warp Speed” in 2020 and been institutionalized (and most would say, weaponized) by the Biden regime for four terrible years.
