Is he not directly responsible for defunding a lot of the research and programs that would have helped here? Weird that Captain All-Natural cares about having less drugs than China.
Yes, but that's entirely missing the point here.
Drug research and development takes decades until final approval. If there is a decrease in the US (or an increase in China), you need to look for cuts (or additional investments) in the early 2000s.
The damage this idiot has done will not be visible for quite some time...
They cut off funding for projects at all levels of completion. Who knows how much recent shit they killed
It's so weird watching the cognitively impaired elderly because they say 98% random left field nonsense and then the fucking 2% profound revelation statements.
that's a weird metric to look at because drug approval happens only like, 5-15 years after end of preclinical research, sometimes longer
clinical trials also take fuckton of money but this might be also post-2008 cuts that we only see effects of now
The lines must go up metric
It is indeed not the current administration that led to this.
It certainly won't help but that is not the cause, neither is the 2008 one.
China has been advancing in plenty fields for a few decades now.
They have already caught up or surpassed others in plenty fields.
Americans are clinging to their USA nr 1 mantra, but that's delusional.
They refuse to accept to the fact they already have been beaten and there is nothing they can do about it.
Despite banning and sanctions China has a massive lead in nearly all crucial tech fields.
The gap will only become bigger.
The funniest thing is that all the while China is the largest creditor of USA by far, and USA has had foreign investment pouring in overall all those decades.
USA had the money not just to maintain but rapidly advance, and a head start. To bite the dust in this situation is some serious incompetence.

The regime cannot fail, it can only be failed. Those scientists were supposed to do their job of finding evidence for whatever possibly non-metaphorical bug RFK Jr has up his ass on a given day. 🙄
Cancer mad it's killing the host.
Soon a new trump tweet:
FAKE NEWS MEDIA won’t tell you this, but GREAT American Scientists just CRUSHED the number of DEADLY DRUGS pouring into OUR Country! DOWN BIG LEAGUE! China, you POISONOUS SCUMBAGS, STOP making your NEW KILLER DRUGS and MURDERING our Precious CHILDREN! We’re WINNING like NEVER BEFORE! MAKE AMERICA HEALTHY AGAIN! 🇺🇸

That's what happens when you let everyone know you're not going to eat your lunch, someone else is going to eat it.
China on top! Century of american humiliation is upon us

Who said it was your lunch in the first place?
