    I don’t know that he’ll fix it, but he’s def gonna make some changes. Now if those are good or bad changes, I have no clue. But it’s gonna be interesting.

      “Interesting” policies in health and wellness in this context only means that it’s going to get a lot of people killed.

        He hasn’t implemented anything yet, so I’ll wait to see what happens before I judge the policies since we have no idea what will happen.

          Hold a brick above your foot and let go.

          You have no idea what will happen! It could be anything! It could even be a boat!

            But I know what happens when I hold a brick when I let it go. We don’t know what will happen when RFK takes over some public health agencies.

              You’ve dropped a brick on your foot, specifically? That exact sequence of events? Nothing else could prepare you to say what would happen. Was it a brown brick? Have you tried red? What about cinderblocks?

              We know goddamn well what putting a denialist crank in charge of public health would do to public health.

              This is the party trying to ban certain medicines. It’s gonna be awful for everyone. Anything else would be as surprising as if you let go, and the brick fell up.

                    Comrade, I get it, you’re mad. But that doesn’t change the fact that Trump wants to put him in charge. He hasn’t implemented anything yet, so I’ll wait to see what happens before I judge the policies since we have no idea what will happen.
