Obviously I'm losing it.  Since you're so attuned to very capable and successful POTUS... tell me what great things he's done / announced / provided leadership on this past week.  

I don't see much, and the information he keeps providing is somewhere between wishful thinking and lies.

That is the difference between not knowing and not giving a fuck anymore.

It doesn't matter / IDC.  Or it is our turn to bury our heads in the sand like you did.

At least we have a worthy VP in case he isn't.  Yours was a day drinking coward who couldn't tell which way to go on a one way street even with directions.

Besides, you couldn't tell Biden was failing, how can you tell that Trump is ?  You can't have it both ways.

And Russian social media intervention.

More than that, here’s a guy with no medical background, and grades so bad he won’t make them public, and he’s practicing medicine without a license making medication recommendations to pregnant women. Fuck him and if the AMA or American College of Physicians or the American College of OBGYN or the American College of Pediatrics has any sort of integrity, they’ll bring a lawsuit so big that no one’s ever seen. Everyone will say so.


To that end, I just contacted the AMA, ACO, ACOG, and Am College of Pediatrics thus, including the link to that little medical dosing advice scenario above: 

He’s making medication and treatment recommendations, practicing medicine without a license. Obviously this is hurtful to the mother (“tough it out”) and disrespectful of all the work that goes into getting our medical licenses and giving quality, researched care to our patients. Don’t let him demean us in this way. Please bring a lawsuit.

Thanks,

It's all he could handle.... saying acetaminophen once...sort of...with someone saying it to him behind him.

It's shocking how stupid and incapable of complex thought this guy is.   But yeah... we were all fooled by Biden's handlers.

I get your point but 1) Wakefield’s horrible paper on vaccines has been completely disproven as lies and fake news. And 2) acetaminophen has been studied up the pediatric wazoo. It’ll take a bigger, more delicate, incredibly believable bit of research to counter something like this - not suspicions by someone with no biochemistry, immunology, or pediatrics background. I’ll take the TL;DR from the folks who do that sort of research first, and change my mind later - after proof its wrong.

As an aside: since Trump singled out Tylenol, not acetaminophen, we’re all waiting on the Kenvue/J&J lawsuit. Should be an interesting battle of the lawyers.

Acetaminophen Use During Pregnancy and Children’s Risk of Autism, ADHD, and Intellectual Disability

This nationwide cohort study with sibling control analysis included a population-based sample of 2 480 797 children born in 1995 to 2019 in Sweden, with follow-up through December 31, 2021.

yeah, ok.  Nothing is settled.

The "what's the downside of not taking it" stupidity just amazes.

Ignoring the women in pain part.... there is also the reality that Tylenol helps to reduce fevers, that if they go untreated, can increase birth defects and create developmental problems.

The attack on science, reason, and logic is non-stop. 

Arthur Caplan, the founding head of the division of medical ethics at N.Y.U. Grossman School of Medicine, wrote: “The announcement on autism was the saddest display of a lack of evidence, rumors, recyling old myths, lousy advice, outright lies and dangerous advice I have ever witnessed by anyone in authority in the world claiming to know anything about science.”

And what, pray tell, caused autism before 1950?

If I’m getting your vibe its the announcement that Tylenol causes autism? And no scientific proof was forthcoming?  Hmmmm what did we expect from worm boy?  

The fruit loops in the insane asylum are running the show.  

Oh, for fuck’s sake.
