    Gonna be very hard to undo the damage of the Taco skidmark.

    Taco and Brainworm and fElon might be the three people that might have literally set the average lifespan of Americans back. It will probably take some time to look backwards and confirm this, but it would not surprise me.

    Not only for the things like completely fucking up our vaccine scheduling for children, but also for giving the impression that beef tallow, red meat and dairy are things to consume in anything other than extremely sparingly (if at all).

    Not just that, but also the way they have most likely crippled the advances in science and medicine that may very well extend lifespans/healthspans.

    And these stupid apes have only been running things for just under a year. They’ve fucked things up that much in just under a year. JFC.

      States in the Deep South already have a lower life expectancy than some African countries. With some more effort, perhaps the current administration can manage to catch up to the likes of the Central African Republic.

        Part of the low life expectancy in African countries may be due to violence, although I’m not entirely certain. But it seems Taco and pals are striving to bring more of that into our country, too.

    It’s a little late for that. It’s like restoring all the SNAP benefits to someone that’s already starved to death.

    There’s no reason for optimism as long as Republicans are too spineless to overturn a veto, or to force Trump to spend the money if he doesn’t want to.
