Do you believe Donald Trump's fentanyl policies saved the lives of up to 258 million Americans? (1 Viewer)

This seems pretty self explanatory as a question. My polls, for the most part, don't believe in maybes. She said it, I think it is a case of you either buy it or you don't.

What Pam Bondi’s statement about fentanyl overdoses misses

Attorney General Pam Bondi said President Donald Trump had saved more than a third of the U.S. population from a fatal fentanyl overdose in his first 100 days. Drug policy experts and toxicology doctors say that math is flawed.

! NOT IN THIS LIFETIME.

Of course. Without Trump, 75% of the population of this country would have died in the last hundred days.

Makes perfect sense.

 

[Sweden]

"Up to" - the great cop out. "Up to 238 million" can mean 5 people, 50, 500, 5000 or any other other number one chooses.

I would like to clarify that the claim is without Trump's policies anywhere from 30% to 75% of the US population would have died in the last 100 days.

There is a lot of room to play there. Coulda been 35%, 45%, 55%, 65%, maybe 75%. We really don't know, as everyone is doing fentanyl everywhere all the time all at once.

We are Americans, don't tell us what to do.

Trump’s budget cuts out funding for Narcan for first responders and education on recognizing and treating opioid overdoses.

Bondi and the rest are so full of crap they could fertilize Kansas.

I am afraid I do not understand what difference it makes, IF even only 100 lives were saved by any policy that caused a change for good.

You want me to define "good"?

The U.S. law enforcement agencies were given the tools they needed to save 100 lives of U.S. citizens; maybe 1,000 lives; maybe 100,000 lives; or just one million.

Do you folks know the cartel price structure for helping folks get across the U.S. border? There are two prices. It is that second high price that was allowing that bad stuff get carried into the country. You folks want to go back to those days when that bad stuff was so easy to bring into the country? Or are you now going to give me that bit about that isn't the topic?

As I wrote in that other thread, you folks just keep on using up your time and energy on all this anti-Trump that and anti-Trump this and you are going to see the Democratic Party step-by-step lose whatever power it presently has. Republican Party stalwarts love these sorts of threads. But, then, you are assisting the profits of that politifact group of folks.

 

[Rexedgar]

I heard it was billions!

You don't understand the difference between hundreds of millions and one hundred? Okay let me put it in this context:

If you say you spent 100 minutes working, that is 1 hour and 40 minutes.

If you say you spent 100 million minutes working, that is 190.26 years.

Does this help at all? I hope so.

 

[phoenix2020]

That's fair. No less an authority than Donald J. Trump declared that 98% of his followers could not pass a simple test of cognitive health. Therefore we mustn't assume that his disciples would understand his own words.

I was going to get some fentanyl but my dealer said he didn't have any because Trump stopped all of the shipments.

Thanks for saving my life Trump!

Your lack of respect for human life is duly noted.

Your need to garner political brownie points by disrespecting human life is duly noted.

It is so sad to see the Democratic Party getting flushed down the toilet.

Cool story or whatever, but what do you think Donald will do when he learns that you don't know the difference between 100 and 100,000,000? Don't get me wrong, I'm sure you're trying to be loyal and all, but first you don't buy his sneakers, then you embarrass Eric and Don Jr., and now you can't even support him with basic arithmetic? It's not a good look. This may be a good time for you to disengage online and spend a few weeks trying to Be Best, Melania-style, face to face with Mitch or Lindsey.

So tell us why Trump’s Budget has no money for Narcan and training? Or better yet. Tell us why there is no money for FEMA but $300 million for Trump to go golfing.

I don’t think it’s the Democrats with the problem of respecting or appreciating life.

Her subtle way of saying trump drives people to do drugs.



All of America would be on that shit if she hadn't intervened.

Finally, we have cracked the case of who left the coke at the WH.

 

[molten_dragon]

Clearly not.

There were around 100k overdose deaths total in 2023 and about 70% of those were attributed to all opioids. So claiming to save over 100 million people is just ludicrous.

When is trump going to save America from alcohol? Look at what its done for Hegseth.

 

[multivita-man]

Of course without timely vaccines and with public health agencies being gutted, maybe such a scenario can't be completely dismissed.

With proper training you too will be unable to know the difference of 100 from 100 million. You will also believe that if the state says so 2 plus 2 equals 5. Obviously, our colleague has had the treatment.


George Orwell's "1984" Winston learns that 2 plus 2 equals 5

it was a gaffe

we laugh at gaffe's and think they're acceptable and funny and move on - we did it for the last 4 years

You shrugged off Biden's gaffes? Huh.

 

[Peter]

Unless about half the country we're on the verge of suicide (Trump just got reelected so maybe it's not so crazy) then no he didn't save a few hundred million people.

Luton Town FC may get relegated from the Championship tomorrow though which may cause a global mass depression though so let's hope they don't get relegated.
