Make America Healthy Again - Trump populism comes to health regulation (3 Viewers)

[superchuck500]

This is going to need a thread as we move forward - there are now clear signs that Trump supports a new, critical if not dubious approach on vaccination, and his HHS nominee RFK Jr. regularly espouses eating raw milk and raw meat . . . dietary components most experts agree are more dangerous than their heated counterparts.

Health is certainly one of those areas were anti-institutionalism and turning to popular influencers over medical science comes with genuine risk of harm.

Today Trump provided his most clear indication that he is a vaccine skeptic - claiming (falsely of course) that the USA doesn't "do as well" as other nations that use no vaccines at all.

Just roll back the massive tax cuts for the top 1%, and there’s more than enough money to go around. But no—typical MAGA, still sipping the Kool-Aid and cheering on billionaires buying their next jet or yacht, while everyday people struggle to get the retirement benefits they’ve spent a lifetime paying into.

There may be enough Americans that don't care, because hurting the neediest and most vulnerable people plays well in the Republican party. They think it is tough, and they are welfare queens. It is so simple-minded, and only if it impacts them or someone they care about will they find empathy.
