I think it's fair to say has been very sympathetic to Donald Trump on the air.
And so I think she's posting this chart.
And I saw a lot of Trump people reposting this chart, trying to credit Donald Trump with fentanyl overdose deaths coming down.
But if you actually look at the chart, it shows fentanyl spiking under Donald Trump's first term, then Biden having to deal with the crisis.
Biden is actually the one who reversed the trend, and now Trump is riding that trend out.
And I think this is just the perfect representation of everything that Donald Trump has done.
Frankly, this isn't even unique to Trump.
I think Democratic presidents are used to this trend constantly.
of being left with a disastrous economy, a country that's been completely decimated from the inside out, then the Democratic president comes in.
They have to play adult.
They have to pick up the pieces.
They have to reverse the trends set by those Republican presidents who screwed everything up.
And then eventually, three, four years down, it doesn't even take that long, but the Republicans start complaining that everything's bad and people say it's not getting fixed quick enough.
Then they put these Republicans back in charge who mess everything up again.
And then the process just keeps repeating and repeating and repeating.
So I think we need to identify these trends.
We need to work to break these cycles.
And we need to call out the con because the con is an obvious one.
It's just a matter of kind of surfacing this data and making sure that people understand the strategy that's happening behind the scenes.
look think about the surgeon who identifies a very serious illness that requires surgery right the surgeon can tell the patient you're fine you look great everything is amazing while the patient gets sicker and sicker and sicker or the surgeon can intervene and perform a surgery to try to help remove whatever the ailment is that procedure is often going to be risky
