But we found something better, Narcan. And Democrats fast-tracked it. That contributed a lot to the huge decrease in drug deaths. But so did closing the border, deporting gangbangers, and disrupting supply. Narcan worked and law enforcement worked. You see, mommy and daddy, for the sake of the kids, work together even though they hate each other. Just like in a real family.
Welcome to the era of Accidental Bipartisanship. And it's not just drug crime that's way down. It's all crime. And again, probably much of it is not political. It's because you can't move two inches in America without being tracked, photographed, and followed by a Flock camera.
But it's also because when Democrats expand the safety net, there are less desperate people. And because Trump is a bada**. No, I don't agree with many of his methods, like how they sometimes just deport people to countries where they have absolutely no connection, like Meghan and Harry.
Is doing it this way the right thing? No. But it's just childish to pretend that when you elect a f*ck-around-and-find-out president, a no-more-Mr. Nice-Guy, boot in your a**, V for Vendetta, kick a** and take names, say hello to my little friend president, that's not going to have some effect on crime. He has UFC fights on the lawn. I think the bad guys got the message.
But maybe the place where Accidental Bipartisanship has worked best is with prescription drugs, where we have seen the steepest annual decline in prices since 1963. 1963. That's when the most prescribed drug in America was the speed they gave to housewives so they could clean the oven faster.
How did that happen? Well, of course, if you listen to the Trump people, it's totally all them. And yes, the TrumpRx discount site did work. Democrats say no, it was actually all Biden's Inflation Reduction Act that did the trick. It's both. Because they both, independently and totally not working with each other, figured out that when it comes to drugs, you can really save a lot of money by buying in bulk. Something I figured out when I was a pot dealer in college.
