Chris Pratt just dropped a bombshell on Bill Maher’s Club Random, voicing support for Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s “Make America Healthy Again” (MAHA) agenda, as the Daily Mail reports. The Guardians of the Galaxy star, married to Katherine Schwarzenegger, Kennedy’s cousin by marriage, isn’t shy about wanting toxic junk out of kids’ food. Hollywood’s elite clutching their kale smoothies might squirm at this one.
Pratt’s appearance on Maher’s show spotlighted his sit-down with Kennedy, where he praised efforts to purge harmful substances from children’s diets. He’s not swallowing Kennedy’s entire platform, but he’s open to ideas that cut through bureaucratic nonsense. This isn’t blind loyalty -- it’s a nod to common-sense health reforms.
“I hope there are certain things that he oversees that seem to be supported in a bipartisan way,” Pratt said, zeroing in on cleaning up food for kids. That’s a jab at the processed-food peddlers who’ve dodged accountability for too long. Woke crusaders might call it “problematic,” but most parents would cheer.
Before the election, Pratt penned an essay for Maria Shriver’s Sunday Paper, urging Americans to unite as countrymen despite political divides. “It’s ok to take a moment to lick your wounds when you lose,” he wrote, pushing for grace over tribalism. The left’s outrage machine, predictably, revved up on Reddit, slamming his words as empty platitudes.
Pratt’s call for unity didn’t sit well with the perpetually offended, who labeled his essay “vapid” online. He argued that “allegiance to our ‘team’ can blind us” to shared national goals. The Reddit mob’s tantrum only proves his point about divisive groupthink.
“How do we become a nation of honorable winners and graceful losers?” Pratt asked, urging readers to “be of service.” It’s a refreshing antidote to the left’s sanctimonious lectures about moral superiority. Yet, the woke brigade would rather nitpick than engage.
Bill Maher, hosting Pratt, didn’t hold back on his admiration for Kennedy’s environmental law days. “I love him,” Maher said, praising Kennedy’s unyielding convictions. The comedian swatted away claims that Kennedy’s a conspiracy nut, calling them lazy smears.
Maher noted Kennedy’s past as a respected environmental lawyer, urging him to tie it to his current health crusade. “When he was here, I said my advice to you is like you need to marry your former life more with what you’re doing now,” Maher said. That’s a sharp contrast to the media’s caricature of Kennedy as a fringe figure.
“I mean this guy, when this guy believes something you cannot move him off of it,” Maher added. It’s a trait the progressive elite, obsessed with conformity, can’t stand. Kennedy’s MAHA push, backed by Pratt, exposes their hypocrisy on public health.
Pratt’s no stranger to the outrage cycle, having faced heat in 2019 when Elliot Page called out his Zoe Church ties as “anti-LGBTQ.” Vox’s label stuck, but Pratt’s Marvel co-stars like Mark Ruffalo and Robert Downey Jr. rallied to his defense. The woke police don’t forgive, but Pratt keeps moving forward.
In 2020, social media dubbed Pratt “Hollywood’s Worst Chris” over rumored conservative leanings. His brother-in-law, Patrick Schwarzenegger, and co-stars pushed back, proving loyalty trumps Twitter mobs. The left’s obsession with labeling dissenters shows their intolerance for independent thought.
In 2021, Pratt caught flak for a post praising his wife for a “healthy” child, seen as a slight against his son Jack’s premature birth struggles. “F***ed up,” Pratt called the backlash in 2022, noting its lasting sting. The outrage crowd’s selective sensitivity reeks of performative virtue.
Pratt’s father-in-law, Arnold Schwarzenegger, took a different tack, publicly endorsing Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. “I will always be an American before I am a Republican,” Schwarzenegger declared, slamming Trump’s leadership. Pratt’s unity plea stands in stark contrast to this family rift.
Schwarzenegger warned that Trump’s approach would fuel “more anger” and division. Yet Pratt’s essay doubled down on finding common ground, urging Americans to “accept the results and focus instead on showing up for each other.” It’s a call to rise above the partisan noise the left thrives on.
Pratt’s support for MAHA and unity isn’t about picking fights -- it’s about cutting through the woke haze with clarity. The left’s allergic reaction to his pragmatism only highlights their rigid dogma. As Pratt put it, “There’s certain things that would be a good thing to have” -- and he’s not wrong.
