Trump had promised that in 2016 and then backed off. He has promised it again now, in the presence of RFK junior no less. I would not be surprised if he backs off again.

If Trump really wanted to follow through with it he would put RFK in the Justice Department rather than HHS, assuming the HHS expectations play out.

Let's be honest, Trump isn't going to staff anyone who he thinks will say "No", unless he has to (economic positions / business pressure).

So if RFK is wherever, but can get on Trump's radar, Trump will make the demand, and it will be acted on.

Well on that front, RFK on stage with Trump when he endorsed him was not an RFK that would stand up to him at all. He looked like a beaten dog on stage, at least to me it didn't read simply as stage fright.
