“RFK is obviously a unique and diverse choice, a lifelong Democrat, one of the major figures in the Kennedy family. Obviously, he has a lot of views that Donald Trump appreciates and supports, but at the end of the day, Donald Trump is the president.
“At the White House, RFK is going to work for him, whether it’s putting agriculture first or putting our kids first, this country is ready for a big debate about vaccines and a lot of these issues related to making America healthy again.
“I support RFK 110% to be the new secretary because I think he brings a lot to the job that’s unique. He’s gonna shake up a lot of departments.
“But Donald Trump’s in charge. He’s the guy in the White House that’s gonna be in charge and RFK is gonna report to him.
“I have a lot of comfort in him being the new secretary because I know who’s in charge of him.” – Republican Senator-elect Rep. Jim Banks, speaking to CNN.
