Amid questions about Jeffrey Epstein and sexual assault involving kids, President Donald Trump is getting into the business of making sure children have a good physique.
Trump signed an executive order, “Presidential Fitness Test in Public Schools Act,” to expand a council on sports, fitness, and nutrition. The overweight 47th President is reviving the Presidential Fitness Test for public schools, and he’s putting Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker on the council.

Per video provided by McKenzie Nelson of NBC, Butker, who has been outspoken on his beliefs about strong families (and women not being in the workplace), gave his opinions on children’s health.
“Obviously very excited to be here,” Butker said. “Thank you, Mr. President, for allowing me to serve on the council. Just excited to do my part to help make America healthy again, to help our youth be healthy and thrive and grow up and be great citizens of this country and be great family members and contribute to this great country.
“And I think you have to be strong in mind and body and soul. So, thank you so much for allowing me to be here. Thank you.”

Isn’t Butker supposed to be locked in at training camp?
It’s getting harder and harder not to marry sports and politics in this administration.
