Agree! Though Trump likely won’t take questions with him as it is so glaringly obvious how much smarter he is than Trump.

People are not cars. They’re not houses.

There’s nothing you can do to β€œhealthy living” your way out of disability.

It happens to almost everyone eventually, and more often than not there’s no quick fix. No easy repair.

Healthcare is a human right & these are eugenicists.

If you keep smoking and ignore the cancer it will die-so will you, but the cancer will be dead.

They’re all fucking lying scumbags. High deductible plans are cruel.

Gotta love being told your disability is β€œsecondary” to the comfort of others.

That your accommodations won’t be considered because it’s your β€œproblem to fix”.

Disability is not a β€œproblem”.

It’s not a failing.

It’s not something we can turn on & off.

Ableism is everywhere.

The key here is @they’re gonna feel like entrepreneurs.”

Trump knows that this is always a pathway for support from a certain segment of Americans - mostly men. The desire to β€œinvest” and be an β€œentrepreneur.” Even without expertise, capital, or the resilience to endure failure.

even when the democratic party has leverage and one of the craziest election swings the party intentionally self immolates it’s just so exhausting what is even the point of these people

β€œWhy don’t they get a job?”

Most have one.

β€œWhy don’t they sell their car?”

Good luck getting to work without one.

β€œWhy did they have so many kids?”

I thought you wanted the birth rate up?

Stop judging the poor.

Judge the system that enriches the elite & impoverishes everyone else.

Wow, Todd Blanche is really going with "resistance is futile."

β€œThe goal of the health system is to increase GDP”

No. The goal of the health system is to help people.

There’s many ways to flourish without engaging in the workforce.

This is eugenicist rhetoric. Don’t work? Disabled?

You’re not flourishing.

You’re not helping the bottom line.

As a hospice doctor, the most common dietary counseling I give is β€œif you like it, eat it all day. Have ice cream for every meal if it makes you feel good”

ACOG reaffirms that acetaminophen is safe for managing pain and fever during pregnancy. No reputable studies support suggestions like those in HHS’s recent announcement linking acetaminophen use in pregnancy to autism; in fact, high-quality studies show no such risk. https://bit.ly/47Wxc59

In the US the legality of the β€œtush push” in the NFL is discussed more, than the legality of the anti-constitutional decisions of the Trump government. πŸ€¦πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

Truth. He NEVER argued in good faith. And now we’re supposed to accept his racist, misogynist garbage as a legitimate political position. πŸ™„

This is speech that glorifies and encourages violence. No my words say, his. People who support and incite violence probably have a higher risk of being victims of violence. I wasn’t actually celebrating anything.

As a family doctor, I **highly** recommend sticking to the recommended pediatric vaccine schedule.

Vaccines are safe and the very best way to keep you kids from serious infectious illness!
