RFK Jr. Uncovers What Moves Trump To Tears And Reveals “Neocon War Hawk” Who Makes Him Laugh

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has revealed what makes U.S. President Donald Trump cry.

The Health and Human Services Secretary was speaking on The Tucker Carlson Show podcast when he discussed how his views on the president had changed.

Once a registered Democrat and now working in a Republican administration, RFK Jr. said he initially bought into the idea that Trump was “a bombastic narcissist.”

But after spending time with the president, he was surprised to find that he is a “deep, multidimensional and thoughtful character.”

“He’s encyclopedic in certain areas that you wouldn’t expect, like music. And, you know, he gets very emotional about music,” RFK Jr. said.

“He cries when he hears Pavarotti,” he added.

RFK Jr. said Trump was “always thinking about how this impacts the little guy” and was a “genuine populist.”

“The most surprising thing is because I had pegged him as a narcissist when narcissists are incapable of empathy,” he told Carlson.

“And he’s one of the most empathetic people that I’ve met.”

Trump wasn’t the only politician RFK Jr. discussed on the show, nor was he the one whose character had surprised him.

While he once thought of Secretary of State Marco Rubio as a “neocon war hawk,” he spoke about how Rubio had “this incredible transformation.”

“Marco Rubio is the funniest guy in the Cabinet,” RFK Jr. said. “He says things that make people belly laugh every Cabinet meeting.”

“I think he’s very aligned with me on most issues, on Ukraine, you know, and just the fact that we should not be the policeman of the world anymore, that we’ve got to withdraw from that role,” he added.

Other politicians name-dropped in the podcast included Attorney General Pam Bondi, whom RFK Jr.’s wife, Cheryl, loves.”

Education Secretary Linda McMahon and Housing Secretary Scott Turner were also described as friends.

In the podcast, RFK Jr. also discussed his controversial ‘autism registry’ plan that will assess Americans’ private health data for his study on autism.

He even claimed the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) had hidden a 1999 study that reportedly showed a link between vaccines and autism.

“They kept the study secret and they manipulated it through five different iterations to try to bury the link,” he claimed.

He said the government will now use comprehensive medical data from the CDC, Medicaid, and Medicare to “do a cluster analysis” and make the data available to independent scientists.

“We’re going to get real studies done for the first time, and we should have some answers by September, some initial indicator answers, and then it’ll take over the next six months,” RFK Jr. said.

Advocacy groups have previously criticized RFK Jr. for claiming that autism is preventable and say he is perpetuating harmful stereotypes about people who are on the autism spectrum.

While RFK Jr. promotes the theory that vaccines cause autism, there is no scientific or medical data to back up this claim.

RFK Jr. also said he was confident all details relating to the assassination of his uncle, President John F. Kennedy, and his father, Robert F. Kennedy, would be released.

It comes after Trump issued an executive order on January 23 ordering the full declassification of files on both murders and Martin Luther King Jr.’s murder.

But while he has full faith that the files will be released, RFK Jr. said nothing had changed.

Carlson said: “I know there’s been some frustration about getting all the documents relevant to those three murders, those three assassinations. Are you confident that all of it will come out by the end of this term?”

“I’m confident that President Trump will release anything that he has access to,” RFK Jr. replied.

“But, you know, I don’t expect anything groundbreaking to come from those documents because first of all, with my uncle, we’ve already got everything.”

“With my dad, you know, it was never investigated and that was deliberate,” he added.
