RFK Jr. and GLP-1s

[jdaniel30]

politics aside, i figure he can't really hurt the cause for access to glp1. may not help it either, but probably won't hurt it

The rush to punish China coupled with a general disdain towards GLP-1 may cut the supply off. I am building a stockpile and will wait a couple of years until the dust settles.

I'm thinking about stockpiling more as well for this reason. There may not be a way to tariff gray market peptides, but I wouldn't be surprised if customs becomes more aggressive trying to enforce tariffs, which would lead to more seizures and thus vendors increasing prices to make up for the increase in lost shipments.

i would put a lot of money on jpow's replacement being the yessiest of yes men, moreso than any other appointment. one thing djt does care about is the ability to directly control interest rates so he can juice the economy before elections. i wouldnt be surprised if jared is the next fed chairman.

i don't think trump and powell's economic ideas are too much at odds, at least over the next 2-4 years though. we've already gone through the high inflation high rates pain points... lucky ass trump is gonna inherit a massive bull market during his 4 year term as powell has already indicated that we're going to be lowering interest rates moving forward.

combine that with the gray area of whether you can even fire a fed chair (legality or precedent, take your pick) it's just not a battle that i see trump staking his flag pole on. jerome powell is gonna outlive all of us, lol.

If there’s a grift, he’ll find it.

Hoping the worm in his brain finishes the job.

It's unlikely EL's giant piles of money will ever let him threaten their business though.

ok, i am being a naughty mod engaging in political chit chat on our politics-free site, which i apologize for. let's try to keep the convo focused on peptide issues specifically, which most of you have done. sorry for being part of the problem.

Compared to pretty much everywhere else on the internet, I'm actually impressed at how civil this thread has stayed overall
