Donald Trump and a few of his allies were called out Sunday, in a jab at the president-elect’s health department nominee, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Policy expert Eric Feigl-Ding wrote via X: “Not exactly MAHA—Eating high processed McDonalds burgers and large fries + full sugar Coke.”

The post included a photo of Trump, Donald Trump Jr., billionaire Elon Musk, and RFK Jr., eating McDonalds on a private jet.

"RFK Jr. said on Fox & Friends that he didn’t have a problem with fast food or McDonald’s he was just against “seed oil.” McDonald’s cooks its fries in seed oil. He is also drinking a Coke with high fructose corn syrup," wrote Decoding Fox News on X. "This man is a complete fraud."

The Tennessee Holler commented on X: "Nothing says “Make America Healthy Again” like a Big Mac and a lipper."
