This may be a little akin to an Italian under Mussolini saying "at least the trains run on time", but it remains true that it's probably impossible for any Presidency to not oversee at least a few good decisions. (Even the Washington Post ran an article in 2021 noting some positive things under Trump's first administration.)
Now, of all the bad/horrendous ideas that have floated around Trump and his appalling plan to put a nutjob Kennedy in charge of public health, there is one idea that, to an non American, sounds positive: preventing drug companies advertising on TV.
On the other hand, this apparently is RFK Jr's seriously weird list of interests if he gets control (my bold):
He forecast his plans for the F.D.A. on social media two weeks ago.
“FDA’s war on public health is about to end,” Mr. Kennedy wrote. “This includes its aggressive suppression of psychedelics, peptides, stem cells, raw milk, hyperbaric therapies, chelating compounds, ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, vitamins, clean foods, sunshine, exercise, nutraceuticals and anything else that advances human health and can’t be patented by Pharma. If you work for the FDA and are part of this corrupt system, I have two messages for you: 1. Preserve your records, and 2. Pack your bags.”
And that's not evening getting to his crank views on vaccines and fluoride.
As for his interest in "not suppressing" psychedelics, if we learned that Kennedy was a regular recreational user of magic mushrooms, or something, it would explain a lot.

So even after the mass poisoning campaign the idiot Steve things that vaccines are good. No isolated virus anywhere in the world but vaccines are great
The FDA hasn't been suppressing psychedelic research. The FDA does suppress issues like the use of supplements to enhance health, that food has become too cnotaminated. Chelating compounds are readily available, can be dangerous. Hyperbaric therapy is potentially a means of accelerating aging, stem cell research is hindered because of abortion restrictions(iPSCs are useful but not as useful as embryonic stem cells). Pharma can't be forced to research natural compounds. For example, over the weekend I was reading some very interesting research on lithium but the clinical trials are woefully small and of poor quality. The solution is for government funded studies but that won't happen because their goal is to reduce government involvement in everything.
