After his support for Robert F. Kennedy Jr, Rudy Gobert displays the fight against junk food and eliminates conspiracy

The basketball player with more than 100 caps with the France team was interviewed by “la Tribune” after his message of encouragement to Donald Trump’s future Minister of Health, known for his anti-vax and covid-sceptic positions.

«Let’s go Robert Kennedy Jr.» Ten days after his message on “I saw that it had generated quite a few reactions. It’s a shame that many choose to equate me with a political camp rather than seeing the real intent of my message. regretted the tricolor basketball player in an interview with the Tribune, this Sunday.

However, it is difficult to ignore it. The nephew of the former Democratic president is in fact known for his positions that are, to say the least, conspiratorial on health issues, suggesting for example that Covid was a ‘ethnically targeted virus’, ‘designed to attack Caucasians and black people’ while “the most immune people are Ashkenazi Jews and the Chinese”. Among other things, the link between the use of herbicides and the increase in transgender coming outs.

Not scalded by the future minister’s anti-vax comments, the pivot of the France team and the Minnesota Timberwolves, of whom we remember a joke in bad taste at the start of the Covid pandemic, assures that this is Kennedy’s announced fight against the excesses of the agri-food industry which motivated his message: “I just wanted to show my support for a personality whose fight for health and against junk food in the United States I find quite courageous. Nutrition and well-being are subjects that fascinate me. It’s a certainty that what we put in our body has a direct impact on our health. And so, yes, I am disappointed to see the quantity of chemical additives that certain manufacturers continue to knowingly put in their products. You can never be sure of anything, but I have hope that RFK Jr will move things in the right direction.”

Conspiracy approvals swept under the rug

Asked by Released, who had echoed the sympathies displayed by the man with 112 selections, one of his relatives was in this direction. And to describe Picard as a man who “takes very meticulous care of his body and pays attention to eating a healthy and organic diet”. Fight against “the American food industry which uses a lot of additives was one of RFK’s struggles, which explains his tweet”.

If it is true that Robert F. Kennedy has his sights set on the American agri-food industry – intentions which he will have great difficulty realizing if we judge the profile of the new Minister of Agriculture – Rudy Gobert n had not limited his approvals to the fight against junk food. He thus distributed “likes” under posts with conspiratorial overtones, where we hear, for example, Donald Trump describing the United States as “censorship regime”, Or “Deep State”, “Silicon Valley Tyrants” (who nevertheless softened in 2024 the oppositional posture that they had adopted in 2016 towards the Republican), “left-wing activists” et “depraved media” are fighting for “manipulate and silence Americans.” Without denial since, and far from concerns about the quality of food across the Atlantic.
