This support has earned The Game a spot as vice chair on President Donald Trump’s Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition. He’s been doing his best to improve upon those areas while being an active part of the Trump administration. He recently chose to defend a controversial bill change from Trump as well, publicly.

The US President announced new dietary guidelines that will allow schools that participate in the National School Lunch Program to serve whole and 2% milk alongside fat-free and low-fat versions. Triple H spoke about this bill change on Fox News and explained why it was necessary for the health of the children.

It’s mind-boggling when you look at those numbers, a 270 percent increase (in childhood obesity] from 50 years ago. One in five kids is obese. And, statistically, they will spend the rest of their life obese. They will have chronic diseases because of it. And we can change that, and the biggest, significant change you can make is exercise and nutrition. It’s not treating it down the line, it’s treating it now while you’re young,” he said.

Triple H Supports Donald Trump’s New Change

Triple H doubled down on the fact that the recent bill change regarding dietary guidelines was the right call from Donald Trump. As the vice chair on the Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition council, The Game has to keep the well-being of the people in his country in mind as well.

The Chief Content Officer of WWE chose to point out the increase in childhood obesity as a contributing factor to the nation’s failing health rates. He compared the statistics to contributing diseases in adulthood and wants to make a change for the better.

The King of Kings even decided to disagree with the nutritionists who don’t support this decision from Trump. He claimed over on Fox News that they were taught nutrition wrong from the very beginning and that this change is in the childrens’ best interest. He also urges the children to stay active and keep in touch with exercise to be healthy.

Triple H Has Been A Vocal Supporter Of Donald Trump

Triple H has been quite a public supporter of Donald Trump for a long time now. He and his family have made frequent visits to the White House and stayed in touch with the administration.

Trump has even called the Game as one of his close friends whom he’s known for quite some time. While we’re not sure how that reflects on the WWE as an organization to have such an authority take political sides, Triple H stands firm in his support on certain matters.
