Mustering President Trump's MAHA support for House, Senate and governor races in a light-turnout midterm year could be difficult. Some activists who supported Trump because of Kennedy's eat-healthy, question-vaccines stance are dissatisfied with administration policy on pesticides. Many vocal MAHA activists warn that failure to crack down on pesticides could dampen movement support for Republicans next year. A group of 241 MAHA activists sent a letter warning the GOP "risk[s] losing both moral ground and political support." Kennedy's allies plan a three-part strategy: RFK Jr. touring battleground states, an HHS-promoted "MAHA in Action" schedule, and multimillion-dollar ad campaigns including a "Take Back Your Health" plan.
Mustering President Trump's MAHA support for House, Senate and governor races in a light-turnout midterm year could be tough. A further impediment to a "MAHA bounce": Some activists who bought into Trump's campaign because of Kennedy's eat-healthy, question-vaccines mantra aren't totally happy with how things are going. Zoom in: Kennedy has been praised by many in the movement for his push against synthetic food dyes and his vaccine stiff-arming, even as the latter has set off alarms throughout the U.S. health community.
But many of MAHA's most vocal activists are disappointed the Trump administration isn't following through on its campaign promise to crack down on pesticides - and are warning that could dampen the movement's support for Republicans next year. A group of 241 MAHA activists wrote Trump a letter this month cautioning that the GOP "risk[s] losing both moral ground and political support."
