Scarborough: Lots of Things To Be Critical of RFK Jr., His Physical Fitness Initiative Is Not One of Them

‘Kids are overweight, out of shape, looking at their phones’

EXCERPT:

SCARBOROUGH: “First of all, doctor, let’s just say, there have been a lot of things to be critical of RFK Jr. about. That’s not one of them. I mean, you know, you look at kids in school, I remember we all grew up doing presidential fitness stuff, and we got outside a lot more than we do now. Kids are overweight, out of shape, looking at their phones. This would be a good -- this would be a good step, even if symbolic. I mean, it’d be a good step, wouldn’t it?"

GUPTA: "Oh, 100%, Joe. I mean, I think what they’re very good at is getting the message out. And in this case, getting the message out on healthy living, exercise. Him doing these videos, nothing wrong with that. And I agree with you, I think we've deteriorated as a society, especially at the adolescent level in terms of activity. So, absolutely, this is — he should be praised for this, no question."
