1. Trump is amazing.

For almost half a century the US health care system soaked up health care workers from around the world like a paper towel in a tv commercial soaking up liquid. In one year of his second term Trump is reversing that flow, at the same time as he cuts off funding for health care education which doesn't meet his standards and strangles the healthcare system by reducing funding. It is amazing that one person, even a president, could do so much damage in such a short time. It's as if the health care system was the Whitehouse.
Trump is acting as if the president has almost no constraints (disgusting to see Trump's puppets propped up last night at the address like cheap dolls at a toy store). If the Democratic party was to regain power either they manage to ride rough-shod over the Republicans or it will take decades to get the US back to 2023.
