Did you know that Trump cannot tell the difference between correlation and causation?

President Ignores Science by Linking Autism to Vaccines and a Common Painkiller


So if you also cannot tell the difference, you no longer have to feel shame as Trump is incapable of it...

Oh, why didn't you say so. I guess he really is Hitler and a racist. Maybe we should remove him from office right away and put a democrat leftist back in charge. We can open the borders to the world again and let all the criminals run free again, we can let the men back on the girls sports teams and we can get back to collectivism and taking workers money for the state to redistribute to more and more entitlement packages where the government "pays" everything?

Why didn't you say so? Trump is the devil. Dems are the wise, noble class that "cares" about the country and its citizens.

Well duuuuh! He's got less critical thinking ability than the average ten-year-old.

The bottom line is that something that has been our environment for the last 50 years is causing autism. Nobody wanted to do anything about it. Now we have a president that wants to try. Maybe we should ignore whet the drug makers say and do some troubleshooting to figure it out.
Sherlock Holmes said " "When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth".

"Nobody wanted to do anything about it. " myass. It has been and is studied like crazy:

Using the broad tag "Autism Spectrum Disorder/etiology" [MeSH], PubMed shows ≈15,686 total results. Subtracting pre-1975 items listed in the “Results by year” table (149 from 1965–1974) gives ≈15,537 studies from Sept 22, 1975 to Sept 22, 2025.
PubMed

If you only count papers where etiology is a major topic under the older heading "Autistic Disorder/etiology" [MAJR] (a stricter definition), PubMed lists ≈6,093 total; subtracting pre-1975 items (82) yields ≈6,011 studies in the last 50 years.

But you think we should take the words of a failed President and grifter, and a disturbed lawyer as to causation?

[exitseven]

You can take all the studies in the world and they won't buy a cup of bad coffee. It is time to actually try something.

[Asker]

I see. So you actually think that studying something is "doing nothing" ?

[exitseven]

The study an Tylenol was "inconclusive". The study linking cigarette smoking to lung cancer was also "inconclusive".
Lung Cancer was still on the rise until somebody took the steps to decrease smoking. You hardly see people smoke andymore and guess what? Lung Cancer rates have gone down.

[Asker]

You should quit while you are ahead. You literally have no idea what inconclusive means in this context, and as usual, you cherry-picked results that favor your bias.

[DrPepper12]

The list of things he doesn't understand is infinite.

You should chug a bunch of Tylenol to show Trump who’s boss.

[BarryLiverstone]

He follows the science

[Asker]

HAHAHAHAHA! He has no idea what science is.
