Definitely wasn't prepared for a sequel to COVID. You think Trump learned any lessons the first time around? I might preemptively buy shares in a company that manufactures an unrelated de-wormer medicine just in case.

With RFK we’re so fucked

And trump appointed him so no he didn’t learn a damn thing

I totally forgot that perspective.
