Why would he not trust Trump? President Trump did many of things that RFK Jr wants. He was the strongest supporter of human rights of any President in 30+ years. He took concrete actions against the worst offenders: Russia, Iran, and Communist China. President Trump also did the first tax reform in 35 years, one that raised taxes on the wealthy and lowered them on almost everyone else (the top 1% paid 40% of all Federal income taxes in 2016 and pay 46% now). Etc.
