Republican Senator and medical doctor Roger Marshall spoke with “Sunday Morning Futures” host Maria Bartiromo about President Trump’s America First agenda on Sunday.
“Listen, President Trump is gonna go in on day number one and sign a hundred executive orders, but those orders go nowhere unless we get these nominees across the finish line,” Marshall said.
“So, you met with President Trump this week, along with your colleagues. Did you have a chance to speak with your colleagues? Do you believe you have the votes in the Senate to actually confirm all of his nominees?” Bartiromo asked.
“I hate to count my chickens before they hatch, but yes, I do. I think they need to go through the hearing process. They are gonna get beat up by the legacy media and the left as well, but I think the votes are there,” Marshall said.
“Some of them are outside the box, but I do think we have the votes,” Marshall continued.
“That’s what President Trump said, he wants to drain the swamp. He wants outside the box,” Bartiromo commented.
They also discussed nutrition and making America healthy again.
“I know you have also spent a lot of time with Robert Kennedy Jr. as well as Dr. Oz in the medical field. Tell me what you have learned from that time?” Bartiromo asked.
“I’m excited to help Dr. Oz and Bobby Jr. to make America healthy again and we are talking about what that platform looks like. And I think it starts with healthy, quality nutrition. I think it starts with addressing the chronic disease issues and really addressing this mental health crisis,” Senator Marshall said.
“I did not realize, you talked about this over the weekend, 60 percent of Americans have chronic diseases,” Bartiromo said.
“These are things you could actually get ahead of with different behavior, nutrition,” Bartiromo continued.
“70 percent of your health outcomes are determined by you, it’s determined by what you eat, and what you are surrounded by,” Senator Marshall said.
