If we take fentanyl more seriously as a result of declaring it a weapon of mass destruction, I'm 100% for it.

The exception proves the rule. For example, if Trump let this one guy go for whatever reason but still cracked down on thousands of criminals in the fentanyl supply chain, reducing the supply, letting the one guy go would be negligible and not even worth mentioning. Obviously, with Trump, you wonder if he's just blustering and won't actually do anything.
