Michael Wolff suggests RFK Jr. is positioning for a 2028 presidential bid

Biographer Michael Wolff argued on the Inside Trump’s Head podcast that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is using current conspiracy-driven anxieties to lay groundwork for another run at the White House.

On the Inside Trump’s Head podcast, Michael Wolff portrayed the current American mood as a mix of conspiracy obsession and health preoccupation, arguing that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. intends to capitalize on this trend for a future presidential campaign. Wolff highlighted Kennedy’s recent activities, including his endorsement of Donald Trump in 2024, his role as health secretary, and the launch of an online cooking series promoting his dietary agenda.

He suggested that Kennedy’s emphasis on the food industry and an "epidemic of loneliness" aligns with voter concerns, positioning him as a potential "food pyramid president." Wolff also mentioned that other former Trump officials, like Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy and Vice President JD Vance, are pursuing personal media ventures, which he believes detracts from their governmental responsibilities. The discussion was presented without official comment from the Department of Health and Human Services.
