RFK Jr. roasts West Virginia Governor Patrick Morrisey.

Kennedy and Morrisey held a joint press conference Friday, and the HHS Secretary had some jokes about the West Virginia Governor's weight.

"The first time I saw him, I said, ‘You look like you ate Governor Morrisey.’ I am going to put him on a really rigorous regimen, and we’re gonna put him on a carnivore diet," RFK Jr. joked.

He also laid down a challenge for Morrisey:

Public weigh-ins so everyone can watch his weight-loss journey.

You can watch RFK Jr.'s comments below, and let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.

Who knew RFK Jr. was a bit of a stand-up comedian? The man doesn't just want to make sure Americans get healthy.

He also, apparently, has a very solid sense of humor. That's a dangerous combo!

 All jokes aside, getting in shape is never a bad idea. In fact, it's one of the greatest things you can do in life.

I stopped drinking soda in 2018, and lost 70 pounds. Sugar is terrible for you. Giving it up is one of the best decisions I ever made.

Check out the transformation below.

Let's hope RFK Jr. whips Morrisey and everyone else into shape. Healthy living is the best kind of living. Let me know what you think at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
