[SassyIrishLass]

When did Trump (or anyone else) declare a war?

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

WTF are you babbling about now

 

[whitehall]

I don't get it. Is a record number of overdose deaths in President Trump's first year in office seen as some sort of crazy left wing political victory?

Is Trump's Opioid Strategy a "War on Drugs" Relapse?

The White House this week released its plan to confront the national opioid crisis, roiling urban and rural communities alike. In a three-page document circulated to news outlets and later posted on the White House Web site, Pres. Donald Trump lays out a strategy focused on scaling up law enforcement actions, boosting education about substance use and expanding access to treatment. But critics, including some human rights and public health groups, say aspects of the plan are too reminiscent of the “war on drugs” approach that has failed in the past.



And, here is the link to the White House's position on it..................

Excellent. Those are people we don’t want or need in this country.

At least Trump is consistent at failing.

Trump and most on the right couldn’t care less about opioid addiction and deaths.

Conservatives might go through the political motions, but it’s not a priority for them.

Seems to me the dopers are the ones that failed, who gives a shit, tag'em and bag'em.

Donald Trump is addressing a full blown nation-wide Opioid epidemic, that like, ISIS exploded under Obama's sleepy watch. What makes it tough is he is battling illegal drugs crossing the border and legal drugs being over prescribed by greedy unscrupulous Doctors.

Let nature take its course and thin the herd.....yes its harsh but there is nothing anyone can do

As opposed to Democrats? Did Obama ever mention the word Opioid during his 8 year reign of indifference?

Welcome to politics in America, you must be new here.

a record number of overdose deaths in President Trump's first year in office seen as some sort of crazy left wing political victory just like the death of two people travelling aboard is seen as a political victory for the crazy right wingnuts, or the death of a 4 year old is used as a tool for the crazy right wingnuts.

That is the thing about the wingnuts, they are mirror images of each other, dose not matter which wing they occupy.

If you are a right wing nut he is responsible for everything good that happens in the world, if you are a left wingnut he is responsible for everything bad that happens in the world.

Sadly this board is about 75% wingnuts

Americans love their drugs and those who still believe in keeping them illegal are frankly not intelligent. Legalise and tax and make billions. It's all over dummies.
