Lay off a bunch of folks at the FDA, then announce tariffs? WTF? If you want pharma's to onshore manufacturing, you need to provide them quicker review. So much stupidity.
Ah, you forget the alternative. Instead of quicker review, we could just reduce oversight, and remove safety regulations.

My wife is artsy, and I'm sciency. Maybe we can go into snake oil.
Changing manufacturing sites requires a submission. You have to prove safety and efficacy.
We're about to have a third world economy. Good luck with that.
US healthcare already lags 3rd world countries so it's going back to the confederacy now.
Never been a better time to be selling leather biting straps.
I just had a vision of etsy products with colorful Pokemon characters set in rawhide leather biting straps.
Lot of BDSM crafters about to pivot to medical supplies. Restraints? Harnesses? Relaxants? Something to bite on? They're so ready for this.

Oil executives would probably have him murdered if he did that.
You don’t fuck with oil execs’ bottom line.
You might want to get sick now, before pharmaceuticals aren't available anymore.
And thanks to RFK Jr., that's more feasible than ever.
Trump has looped back around to full retard so many times that I have no idea why I'm dividing the circumference of an average apple by a banana on a bicycle.
I’m gonna cough on them
This will kill people. Directly kill them.
Social Murder.
Just what we needed. More expensive healthcare.
When your perspective is that Trump's testicles are held in a vice grip by Daddy Putin, the whole tarriffs situation makes clear as day sense.
I guess I feel less bad about the stache I have accidentally built up over the last couple of years. Time to refill everything.
