Half of Make America Healthy Again supporters displeased with Trump

  • A new survey indicates that almost half of Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement members are dissatisfied with the administration's performance on their key health goals.
  • Many MAHA supporters are now inclined to back Democratic candidates in the upcoming midterms, believing they are better equipped to address health priorities than Republicans.
  • The administration's decision to allow increased production of Bayer's Roundup weed killer particularly incensed MAHA, who argue such glyphosate-based herbicides cause cancer.
  • Despite being a champion for the movement, Robert F Kennedy Jr. publicly apologised for his past rejection of the president and praised his empathy at the CPAC conference.
  • Republican policy advisers warn the party is “squandering their MAHA moment” as the administration's actions often contradict the movement's principles, despite some positive policy changes.
