Robert F Kennedy Jr claimed the US is engaged in “spiritual warfare,” and the answer to combating it is more meals with your family.

During an event on nutrition education in Washington DC on Thursday (March 5), Kennedy said a lack of cooking ability among Americans is leading to the breakdown of community.

“We need to start bringing people together, and give them a sense of connection, give them a sense of community, and one of the ways do that is to encourage them to go through this ancient ritual of making a meal with their family and then eating a meal with family,” he said.

Kennedy continued, “President Trump understands that we’re engaged right now in spiritual warfare and that the malevolent forces want to drive us apart and end our connection to each other.”
