Fact check: Does Donald Trump and Robert Kennedy Jr. have a weight loss program or promotion?

Checked on September 9, 2025

1. Summary of the results

The analyses provided do not indicate the existence of a weight loss program or promotion by Donald Trump and Robert Kennedy Jr. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]. None of the sources mention a joint weight loss program or promotion by the two individuals [1] [2] [3]. While some sources discuss Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s views on health and nutrition, including his criticism of weight-loss drugs such as Ozempic [5] [6], there is no mention of a collaborative weight loss program with Donald Trump [1] [2] [3].

  • Key points from the analyses include:

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s criticism of weight-loss drugs [5] [6]

His efforts to address chronic disease and ultra-processed foods in the US [7]

The 'Make America Healthy Again' campaign and its goals [8]

No source provides evidence of a weight loss program or promotion by Donald Trump and Robert Kennedy Jr. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

The original statement lacks context about the individuals' views on health and nutrition [1] [2] [3]. Alternative viewpoints, such as the potential benefits of certain weight-loss drugs or the importance of addressing chronic disease, are not considered [5] [6].

  • Some sources discuss Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s 'Make America Healthy Again' campaign, which aims to improve American diets and reduce chronic disease [8], but do not provide a comprehensive view of his overall health policy [1] [2] [3].
  • Additional information about Donald Trump's views on health and nutrition could provide a more complete understanding of the topic [1] [2] [3].

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original statement may be misleading as it implies the existence of a weight loss program or promotion by Donald Trump and Robert Kennedy Jr., which is not supported by the analyses [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9].

  • This framing may benefit those who seek to criticize or undermine the individuals' views on health and nutrition [1] [2] [3].
  • On the other hand, it may also harm those who are genuinely interested in understanding the individuals' perspectives on health and nutrition, as it provides inaccurate information [5] [6].
