        Trump doesn't care about opiod crisis. He likely views them as losers deserving to die. He has NO empathy for anyone else

        The entire meeting was a setup for Trump to create his Korean distraction from the Russia investigation.

        It isn't a crisis. It's just stupid people dying from drug overdoses.

        Okay - here's a real state of emergency - people dying, children parentless - and we get nothing. Outrage, anyone? media?

        Shame on him. It is hard to find a person who hasn't been affected by the opioid crisis.

        Declaring a state-of-emergency on opioids would be a declaration that the Trump administration is failing to handle what he alone can fix.
