They just believe in the cult of Trump.
Maybe Trump's only belief is about aspirin or something.
I don't know.

And there's a whole reason.
There's a reason that a group of people, 30 to 40 percent approval rating right now, no matter what Trump says or does, they love him because he enables him.
Look, people can excuse their crappy behaviors through religion, and they can do so through politics with Trump.
Whatever it is, they can excuse their crappy behavior through an institution.
And when you have such an unprincipled man in charge, he, Trump, is the ultimate excuse to feel better about yourself being a bad person.

has been amplifying the idea and talking about keto diets.
And look, I'm going to tell you right off the bat that I agree with RFK on a number of issues.

Those are real issues.

Now, we've seen no policy changes, but he's taken a stand against pharmaceutical advertising.
But now, RFK and his brain worm are saying that a keto diet can treat serious mental illness like schizophrenia.
