I’ve always low-key blamed Trump (and his minions) on lead poisoning - paint, exhaust from leaded gasoline, old pipes & so forth. I suppose there’s some portion that’s explained by inbreeding. But, I guess some portion of the phenomenon could also be explained by uncooked pork products…
We still had assholes before leaded petroleum and other pollutants that became widespread after the industrial revolution. Not every behaviour can be explained by environmental poisoning!

It’s that whole generation who grew up when cars were everywhere and so was lead. It was brief window where it was really bad.
Lead exposure has a tiny threshold to cause mental impairment. And back then everyone was getting dosed. I mean, we still are. Just not as much.
Which is another reason it’s crazy we’re still letting the most lead exposed generation run shit in their 80s.
The effects of aging and lead exposure cause similar effects that stack with each other.

You talking about when people were drunk the majority of their waking hours?
