Six members of the Presidential Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS have angrily resigned, saying that President Trump doesn’t care about HIV.
Scott Schoettes, Lucy Bradley-Springer, Gina Brown, Ulysses Burley III, Michelle Ogle and Grissel Granados publicly announced their resignations in a joint letter published in Newsweek titled, “Trump doesn’t care about HIV. We’re outta here.”
The group said that the administration “has no strategy” to address HIV/AIDS, doesn’t consult experts when working on policy and “pushes legislation that will harm people living with HIV and halt or reverse important gains made in the fight against this disease.”
“As advocates for people living with HIV, we have dedicated our lives to combating this disease and no longer feel we can do so effectively within the confines of an advisory body to a president who simply does not care,” they wrote.
Why would Trump care?
After all this research does not directly benefit him.
Now if this were the Presidential Advisory Council for research into tiny handitis, or racoon eye-itis, or can'tkeepitup-itis, Trump might be willing to support it 100%.
Let's face it this guy did not get elected to help the American people.
He got elected to help himself to the American people's wealth and resources.
Considering that Trump has boasted about "surviving his personal Vietnam"-(the risks of contracting sexually transmitted disease)-this is hardly a surprise.
ReplyDeleteAfter all, as long as "he gets his", in this case literally, why would he care about anyone else?

DeleteIt's too bad Trump didn't join the military and participate in the Viet Nam war...he was a chicken shit as usual!
DeletePerhaps if he had fought in the war we wouldn't be dealing with his sorry ass today.
He's a weak, white, obese supposed American who has committed treason. Impeach him NOW!
....and furthermore, has Trump tweeted about Pride Day-? At all? (...crickets...)

Anyone who isn't white, male, Christian, and Republican isn't going to be cared for as long as this asshole (and the GOP) hold office. Maybe white Christian females who are under age thirty will be counted as long as Trump deems them to be "tens". Forget about anyone else.
ReplyDeleteYou should add "rich" in your list of those who might get some concern from the GOP and/or Trump. And for the women, you need to add "rich" and "bleached blond."

As nasty as he is/was and his enablers I would be surprised that they do not suffer from the wide array of sex diseases over the last 60 yrs of rape and nasty behavior.
ReplyDeleteTrump and enablers calls it population control and to cut all chance for healthcare. The 20% don't want to pay taxes for social programs until they need them. What the clowns miss is that the 80% are who built the 20% and the 80% actually pay the tax bill. NO 80 NO 20 sick or not.
ReplyDeleteSo-called Democrats who act like cowards when it comes to the dumb things their side does are just as despicable as Republicans.
ReplyDeleteSince I am neither dem nor rep may I ask what dumb things democrats that act like cowards does as despicable as Republicans? I need more details 7:25 AM
DeleteAnonymous 7:25 AM has written something negative about a certain set of people, but has given no evidence whatsoever that the set he characterizes is non-empty. (And probably doesn't even understand the previous sentence.)
DeleteAnon at 7:25 am. I have no idea what you're talking about in your comment. Don't waste people's valuable time by typing "dumb" sentences you expect others to read.

2 WEEK$! YOU ARE JU$T A NUMBER: “vote-o-rama.”
ReplyDelete"This is the moment Senate Majority Leader Mitch McCONnell was born for. " the issues they’re dealing with are “dial-able… so you can say, ‘If you set this number, it does this and if you set that number, it does that.’ ”aybe they agree with him: Speed and secrecy is the only way to do this."

Lisa Murkowski is NOT representing Alaskans. She needs to go when she comes up for reelection again. She is not supporting Alaskans...she supports the fucker Trump!
DeleteTrump is the Panama President's pussy. The Panama President yanked Trump's hand.
ReplyDeleteIs Trump sick and weak?
ReplyDeleteThe only way he would care about HIV/AIDS is if Ivaaannnnkkka contracted it.
ReplyDeleteAnyone else, including his sons, Tiffany, Melania would not get his care, concern, or time.
This orange man, after all, has hours worth of cable tv news to watch. He doesn't have time for sick people.
The only way he would care about HIV/AIDS is if Ivaaannnnkkka contracted it.
Delete8:19 thats impossible. If trump is like the guy in Wasilla.
Is that true? Why he did it!? There lot of people there needs health care fro gov.
ReplyDeleteFuck the asshole! I deplore the man. He is pure ugliness and full of sin. He's no more a Christian than many others throughout the country.
ReplyDeleteHe needs to go - impeach his fat ass asap!

ReplyDeleteI wonder whatever made these people think that Trump would care about HIV/AIDS anyway. If he doesn't have it, then why would he care. I don't think he'd care if one of his children had it.

Trump, McConnell and Ryan can skip off to hell forever. I hope they all drop dead.
