That’s what’s illegal.” Let me put this into perspective: The U.S. population in 2023 was around 340 million people. Trump claims that 90% of the Americans died in 2024 because of drugs. If 300 million Americans died last year because of drugs, why are there still 340 million Americans in the U.S.? I used to be good at math. I’m scratching my head now. Officially, around 75.000 people in the U.S. died from drug overdoses. That’s a lot of people, but why can’t the guy just tell the truth?

Well a good bs story always sells, I don't think the tariffs are helping , it's about the same when Joe was in. at least on my end

We’re all built from the same dust and dreams,
Different roads, but the same means.
