Republicans Get A Taste Of How Wrong They Were About Michelle Obama’s Plan

Critics called out what they saw as yet another instance of conservative hypocrisy and made former first lady Michelle Obama’s name trend online.

The backlash to right-wingers came after newly appointed Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. discussed school lunches in an interview with Fox News’ Laura Ingraham.

“We want to do a number of things but not take away choice from people,” said Kennedy, a vaccine skeptic who has promoted a “Make America Healthy Again” agenda and who President Donald Trump has said well be allowed to go “wild” on health in his role.

“The one place that I would say that we need to really change policy is the SNAP program and food stamps and school lunches,” Kennedy said. “Because there the federal government, in many cases, is paying for it, and we shouldn’t be subsidizing people to eat poison.”

While the call for healthier school meals has been largely welcomed across the aisle, critics have pointed out the double standard of when Michelle Obama led a similar initiative during her husband Barack Obama’s presidency, but faced conservative anger and accusations of pushing a “nanny state.” Many questioned why the same goal is being backed by the right without the same indignation.
