LOL. Are you typing this with a straight face? Even Trump’s accolades are using his dishonest hyperbole... Trump and the GOP had control for two years.... why no immigration legislation? LOL.
Trump was right about the drug problem. He announced his candidacy before the 2014 provisional data was released. We need to accept, as we should, that Trump was and is right about this one issue -- even if you disagree with him on everything else. Let's not allow hate and hostility to inflame our rhetoric and sabotage our actions. Do we need to put the politicians under oath? Yes. Do we need to put the data under oath? No -- because data don't lie. https://www.drugabuse.gov/related-topics/trends-statistics/overdose-death-rates
Too scared to directly quote? So are you saying Obama never mentioned this crisis and never tried to do anything? Is that what you are saying?
You conveniently ignore two things 1. 80% of opioid addictions in the US start on prescription drugs before moving on to fentanyl or heroin 2. Fentanyl is imported from China mainly through shipping So blaming Mexico (which is where heroin has come from for decades) for the recent spike in deaths is just further proof that you are xenophobic https://www.politifact.com/north-ca...er/would-wall-have-prevented-opioid-epidemic/
Thx Lou for pointing this out. This point and more was already pointed out directly to rojo not too long ago by another poster, who took the time to provide some details. Maybe he didn’t get to read that or is refusing to learn. Previous post below
Nothing you posted refutes what I have stated. Leave it to the simple minded to be distracted by your nonsense.
So facts are nonsense? You are blaming Mexicans for something caused by the medical and pharma industry. Last I checked most doctors prescribing opioids and most pharma execs were NOT Mexican.
