    Ya know, the best part of this fentanyl thing is how much conservatives loathe people addicted drugs, something that usually happens when a person is struggling under the very systems they seek to reinforce. They will villainize them at every turn but once they’re dead they’ll use them to attack their opponents even if the entire fault rests on their own shoulders.

    And then they’ll do whatever the fuck this and buddy the demand for narcotics is only going to go up.

        No, but he’s “earned” it or “doesn’t abuse it like they do” or whatever else these people because they fundamentally do not understand that other people are real.

        Its like Joseph McCarthy all over again. Didnt they also find like coke all in the bathrooms last time he was in power? Also he keeps saying its flooding in from Canada, provides no real info on this, and all the real chemicals are coming from China. So he is just dick waving trying to be something he isnt, and some how even after all these repeated losses when doing this tactic didnt learn and is still doing it.
