Trump has become fixated on the completely false, thoroughly debunked claim that vaccines cause autism, the Journal reported. As such, he has grown frustrated and disappointed that Kennedy hasn’t done more to cut back federal childhood vaccine recommendations or confirm a link to the neurodevelopmental disorder. In June, Trump reportedly vented in the Oval Office to Kennedy that he wasn’t doing enough. Kennedy also single-handedly trimmed the US childhood vaccine schedule to resemble that of Denmark’s, a small country with universal healthcare. And he edited a CDC website to falsely link vaccines to autism.
