I really wish he would stop making clearly false made up statistics. It is unnecessary to do

Do you not think 300,000 million people WORLDWIDE may have died from drugs?

Oh no! This means that we should open the borders again! He messed up a number! Let’s import 300,000 (see its thousand! I’m correct!) people who don’t speak English tomorrow!

Time to get serious on hard drugs like crack, fentanyl, heroin, etc. life sentence if you are caught dealing or smuggling.

Please tell me you are joking.


"According to the most recent comprehensive global estimates from the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), approximately 600,000 deaths worldwide were attributable to drug use in 2022. Of these, around 80% (about 480,000) were related to opioids, with roughly 25% of opioid-related deaths (approximately 120,000) resulting directly from overdose."

I was always told that one is to many.. so I guess the real number is in there somewhere …but does it change the objective.

I guess I’d like to know What the number is because if one to many then he could say a billion as far as I’m concerned because it’s all political rhetoric

We all know that President Trump invents statistics on the spot without any reference to reality. It's embarrassing when we try to pretend he's not just making stuff up.

He was clearly NOT talking worldwide. He referenced the drugs "coming into our country."

La.. and now federal pricks are more worried about “Kratom” which is a natural plant that they claim has addiction problems, which is pure BS.

I’m all for going after the hardcore drugs, but if it has natural roots, comes out of the ground in any way, they should never make it illegal. I’m still pissed off about the Kratom witch hunt.

It is. That is my point. No need to make up an asinine number like 300 million.

This is correct. But even worldwide the number is 500k-600k so the 300 million number is just grossly inaccurate.
