I’m not panicky. I’m not despondent. Biden still works out better in my world. That crap won’t change my vote. My problem is Trump’s lies. I heard his standard speaking points, we’ve all heard them. One thing, at the end he said something, I couldn’t understand it all because he doesn’t speak in straight lines. He said something, to the effect of: “Space age medicine, just sign a document and you can be cured of anything…” What the hell was he talking about? Is this a conspiracy theory? I’ve searched, can’t find anything coherent on it. Does anyone know? ---

Basically, Right to Try means that if there are certain treatments that are in the beginning stage of the FDA, you can demand (as a terminally ill patient or near death) to be given the treatments. It doesn’t mean you can demand that literally anything be injected into you. ---
