Thanks for the suggestions ... will need to review these in detail. I am just concerned that anyone deemed legitimate may be automatically excluded. We'll see what happens pretty soon ... we're talkin real stuff now ... I looked up the actual vaccine requirements to attend public schools we'll see what real and what is not. It'll be hard to fudge who's vaxed and who is not ... those with kids know that records must be submitted or attested to, sometimes just to participate in sports and other events
I'm not expecting Trump to read this, but I'm hoping people who advise him or who are otherwise able to influence him might see it. There's an opening here to get a real reformer in at the agency. We won't have another opening like this for at least 4 more years, and possibly 8-12 years, if Democrats win in 2028/2032). (The pendulum will likely swing back towards status-quo Democrats, although Vance may have a good chance in 2028). A number of people around him I think are likely sympathetic to FDA reform (Vance, Musk, Ramaswamy). Other people I have heard are working with his transition team are also likely sympathetic (Peter Thiel, Blake Masters, and Steve Hsu). This is a very exciting time for those of us interested in regulatory reform! It's almost like the stars are aligning to a point where some of the changes we've been pushing for for years may become possible.
If you have an argument for not giving advice to Trump and his team, I'm all ears.
sorry, I accidently removed John's comment.. here's what he said: "He's a would-be dictator, who will soon be a dictator in reality: emergency powers, bypassing Congress, mass deportation. Like advising Hitler on the design of the Volkswagen."
If someone else thinks American democracy is under immense threat and wants to place a large bet, send me a DM.

Would you like to bet 25,000 Euros or 250 grams of gold on this not happening during Trumps turn? I have a bank account in the EU, happy to have my Czech lawyer draft up a bet agreement and hold the money in escrow.
(Bet is in euros or gold because presumably USD will collapse under that scenario).

Giving advice to Trump on good government? Srsly?

Update. Unfortunately John has refused the bet: https://imgur.com/a/V55LHrM

So, based on that, which of the 3 candidates discussed here are you most excited about?
