The error message is pretty clear: the command module doesn't have a "cmd"
parameter. (Then it helpfully lists the parameters it does have.)
You could say
ansible.builtin.shell: "{{ command2 }}"
But Brian already gave you a solution, which I'll repeat here:
You either need to run ansible-playbook as a user with permissions (rke,
root?)
or use a task to read the file while using privilege escalation (become):
- slurp:
path: , '*/home/rke/*.ssh/id_rsa.pub'
become: yes
delegate_to: localhost
register: rke_pub_key
This is the equivalent of you doing `sudo cat */home/rke/*.ssh/id_rsa.pub'
(lookups always run 'locally and are not affected by become, which only
affects the 'remote' side of a task).
