Discussion: First Lady To Host Opioid Crisis Discussion At White House Thursday

Well, that’s proof that the White House doesn’t take this seriously. Melanoma’s a punchline.

If Melania isn’t on opioids then she needs a new doctor.

It’s a deep-rooted, complicated problem but I’m sure putting a college dropout Slovenian D-list ex-model on the job will show results where nothing has before.

Is she willing to discuss her husband’s cocaine problem?

Just don’t ask her to rewrite the U.S. Constitution! Puh leeze!

So has anyone checked to see if Chris Christie’s commissioners all used their government email addresses to conduct this investigation?

I think Melania is using this in a subtle way to figure out her own addiction problems.

As for Melania, “Grisham added that the first lady is focused on the overall well-being of children.” how can she be focused on the well being of children if she doesn’t face/know any average families with children? The lady’s career was all about selling/promoting one thing, and I don’t think children can afford what she was pushing.

I’m sure only Christian Right experts will be asked to attend and give their solutions instead of doctors or clinical case workers. We don’t want her to possible be serious about anything which would make her husband look that much more stupid.

I’m no expert myself. But when you see widespread substance abuse you also see a widespread sense of drifting, aimless hopelessness. It’s often, but not always or exclusively, something you see in places where well-paid jobs for high-school graduates have left and aren’t coming back. I don’t see how Melania’s going to address that, no matter how good her intentions might be. There are communities across the country addressing that kind of thing, doing some really interesting redevelopment work. But the Trump administration will never see or use the sort of approaches they’re devising. Hillary might have. : (

Oh brother! She looks good but that’s about it they should refrain from putting her out there for anything other than window dressing for Donald Trump’s arm and the White House.

Don’t know what she can accomplish, but at least she recognized something like real and/or actionable information from the briefing that she sat in on with her husband.

Now if we could start spending time also attending to the Tumpioid addiction problem that has been somewhat contained, but seems to have such a deep grip on those held in its thrall…

You know, this is basically like her (non-existent) campaign against cyber-bullying. She’s gonna host a discussion, while her husband and his party are trying every which way to Thursday to slash healthcare costs, including funds to fight this problem.

Like everything in Drumpfie’s Administration, it’s just meaningless windowdressing for a moment’s effect.

It is not ruled out, she is the brightest member of the family, just saying…

This was supposed to be Jared “M or F?” Kushner’s remit. Is there now an internal power struggle going on in the White House for the hearts and souls of Deplorable Addicts?

Internet Bullying ended! Next mission: ending the Opioid Crisis!!

#MAGA!
