WASHINGTON, DC: Robert F Kennedy Jr's appearance in a video with model and Donald Trump supporter, Amber Rose, has elicited a mixed response from MAGA supporters.

The politician was seen swaying in a kitchen with the rapper and television personality in the video, which received 3.9 million views in just one day.

In the video which aims to 'Make America Healthy Again', Amber, 40, wore a skin-tight denim costume and asked Kennedy Jr, 70, if he wanted a "shake".

In response, the environmental lawyer, clad in jeans and a khaki shirt, can be seen shrugging his shoulders before starting to dance.



 

Robert F Kennedy Jr's antics leaves Amber Rose surprised

Amber Rose seems to look on in confusion as Robert F Kennedy Jr shakes his shoulders while dancing.

Amber steps back as Kenendy Jr and another man carry on dancing. She then says, "Not that kind of shake, a healthy shake."

Then she gestures toward a juicer that is stuffed to the gills with carrots, cucumbers, and lettuce. Kennedy Jr responds, "Ohh", grinning and nodding as Amber keeps adding veggies to the blender.

Amber re-posted the short video on her page with the comment, "So much fun!"

 



 

Nicole Shanahan, Kennedy Jr's running mate, tried to disassociate herself from the video when a user questioned her about the footage.

"We have different teams. I have nothing to do with Bobby's social media or messaging," she wrote, per Daily Mail

Robert F Kenendy Jr and his support for Donald Trump

This clip was posted one day after Robert F Kennedy Jr claimed in a campaign promotional video that it was his "spiritual journey" that led him to Donald Trump.

'I felt if I refused this opportunity I would not be able to look myself in the mirror knowing that I could have saved lives of countless children," he said, adding Trump "has told me that he wants this to be his legacy".

Kennedy Jr announced last month that he was suspending his independent presidential campaign. He soon appeared with Trump at a political rally in Arizona where he formally backed the former president.

Amber Rose endorses Donald Trump during RNC

On the other hand, Amber Rose had endorsed Donald Trump in July. During her speech at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the rapper expressed her belief that the former president was the victim of media manipulation.

"I'm no politician and I don't want to be, but I do care about the truth, and the truth is that the media has lied to us about Donald Trump," she said per the outlet.

"I know this because for a long time, I believed those lies."

She went on to say, "I believed the left-wing propaganda that Donald Trump was a racist and I realized Donald Trump and his supporters don't care if you're Black, White, gay or straight. It's all love. And that's when it hit me: These are my people. This is where I belong."



 

Sarafina Chitika, a senior spokesman for the Biden-Harris campaign at the time, quickly criticized Amber for her backing of the Republican.

"Amber Rose is right about one thing: research is important. Since we're talking about facts, we brought receipts: Rose said American families were better off when Trump was president – and if she's talking about his billionaire donors, she's right," Chitika told Variety at the time. 

She added, "But for Black communities, it's the opposite story: Black unemployment, Black uninsured rates, and crime rates skyrocketed under Trump's leadership, because the truth is simple – Donald Trump doesn't care about us, our lives, or our livelihoods." 

She concluded, "A vote for Donald Trump is a vote to line the pockets of millionaires like Rose at the expense of actual Black communities, and those are the facts."

Internet reacts to Robert F Kennedy Jr's video with Amber Rose

Although Robert F Kennedy Jr's message of healthy eating in the video was well-received by social media users, the video's specific approach and tone have generated criticism on the internet.

One X user tweeted, "You’ve got to be f***ing kidding me."

Another added, "Cringiest thing I’ve ever seen please don’t ever do that again."

"Why does this feel like a commercial I would have watched on TV in the early 2000,s" remarked one, while someone else wrote, "Love it, America needs to be healthy again, starting with our food, water and air."

"I like seeing that RFK Jr has a good sense of humor," said a user. 

Another said, ""Good grief. Can we stop with this nonstop f***ing embarrassment with these types?"

A user slammed, "So Maga makes fun of Tim Walz walk. But this idiot does this and Trump does the double jerk off move and it’s great."
