Demonizing a drug without good reason is, I believe, an attempt to capitalize on the persuasive power of demonization generally.
And it is a fact that 40-odd percent of the American people - and 50% of the electorate - believe that Trump is on par with sinless Jesus who can do NO wrong.
Truth be told, Trump is a huckster snake oil salesman.
Furthermore, he is a common, and an uncommon, criminal; indeed, the greatest criminal genius of all time, a surpassingly, gifted Houdini who can make all responsibility disappear.
Trump Is The Most Gifted Criminal Genius In The History Of The World - A Houdini Who Can Make Personal Responsibility Disappear. "Malignant Messiah" Can Shoot Someone On 5th Avenue -- In Broad Daylight -- And Not Lose Any Voters. But "Getting Away With Murder" Is The Least Of It. "Lingering Orange Fart" Attempted A Coup D' Etat And Then Persuaded Half The People That He Deserves A Mulligan
Except for His Malignancy's unique ability to get under the skin of his sheeple, il Capo is a stupid person, a bullshit artist who not only lies to shame Satan, but often a clinically deluded individual who seems to believe his own lies.
Trump’s PT Barnum gift for suckering people is close kin to Charlie Kirk‘s ability to sucker the next generation of voters into believing that this manipulative campus evangelist is a Christian martyr, rather than a racist bigot who wants to undo the progress we have made, treating women like submissive chattel, reminding not only women but EVERYONE that they have no agency because they “are not in charge.”
Rather...
Their fascist God is in charge.
Their angry, vengeful God is in charge.
Their abject fear of eternal torment is in charge. (Parenthetically, I will note the wonderful observation that, “If you need the fear of eternal torment to be a good person, you are not a good person.”)
People, especially devious, manipulators of Truth like Trump and Kirk can put “a good face” on anything.
But people like Trump and Kirk are authoritarian absolutists intent on undoing “The European Enlightenment” which championed Science, the Rights of Individuals and the separation of church and state, which, taken together, were the foundation of the American Experiment in self-governance.
These Christian Nationalist snakes-in-the-grass want to undo the modest advancement of Obama care, along with undoing the New Deal - social security, Medicare and Medicaid; indeed, all the progress we've made since Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address.
In similar vein, Christian Nationalists want to re-litigate the Civil War and the Renaissance, taking us back to the Middle Ages when Jesus was everyone’s Lord and Savior, and the entire population was easily bamboozled into assuming that "the Siamese twins" of Church-and-State were divinely ordained to run roughshod over the people. (I encourage you to read the amazing story of Dominican priest Savonarola’s rise to power, and how that political religious situation resolved. We should be so lucky.)

But back to acetominophen --a word Trump was caught on camera completely unable to pronounce. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/hFS1jc_zqsY
Putting a warning label on acetaminophen, in and of itself, is not a big deal.
But promoting and advancing the fundaments of theocracy by way replacing democracy, has the capability of becoming the linchpin that undoes Western Civilization, replacing it with Chaos and all the evils of a ruling class that would sequester the entire economic pie for themselves, as a unrelently selfish cadre of ultra-wealthy multi-billionaires continues its work of rendering fundamental ecosystems unworkable, if doing so can put one more dollar they won’t need for bizilion years in their filthy pockets.
The situation inclines me to end this disquisition with a string of vituperative epithets which are entirely justified, but politically disadvantageous.
“Prove me wrong.”
