President Donald Trump ordered U.S. shipping companies to block shipments of the opioid painkiller drug fentanyl into the country from China.

"I am ordering all carriers, including Fed Ex, Amazon, UPS and the Post Office, to SEARCH FOR & REFUSE all deliveries of Fentanyl from China (or anywhere else!)," Trump tweeted Friday.

"Fentanyl kills 100,000 Americans a year. President Xi said this would stop - it didn’t," he continued. "Our Economy, because of our gains in the last 2 1/2 years, is MUCH larger than that of China. We will keep it that way!"


Trump's Director of Trade and Manufacturing Policy Peter Navarro echoed the president's message in an interview with FOX Business anchor Maria Bartiromo Friday morning.

"He has absolutely galvanized the American people and Capitol Hill behind his China policy, and we know why," Navarro said of Trump. "China steals our stuff, they flood our communities with fentanyl and everything in between."

The OPs point is that who does the President think he is just ordering companies to do this or do that? His absolute power has corrupted him absolutely. You cannot just arbitrarily order things on Twitter and expect them to become law.

Sad, sad days we are living in and will be going forward. The switch has been flipped on Trump. Next phase we are going into.

Fentanyl is the Chinese response to the Opium Wars. They think generationally. 'WE' do not. Hence it is an undeclared War and as such your Commander-in-Chief has every right to respond.

I think this action against fentanyl is a good thing, but, what I would like to see is a lifting of bans on a number of meds that DO NO HARM.

As a poor American suffering from asthma, I ordered 6 inhalers from mexico for the same cost as one here...the EXACT same product.

It was nabbed by customs or some similar agency, a letter being immediately sent to me informing me of the seizure.

I was instructed to reply asap, which I did, describing my desperate need for life-saving affordable meds.

They then sent the parcel to my home, after I promised to never do it again.

Since then, I immediately had to begin paying $90 for an office visit to get only a two refill prescription for inhalers which costed upwards of $80 each.

_____

They could easily allow some products through to make up th difference...although I would be leary to buy any pharmaceutical from a country who makes fake eggs out of chmicals, and sells rat meat as chicken.

What are you babbling about?

It's already against the law to ship controlled substances through the US mail or otherwise.

You think you can mail/ship a box of cocaine and that's just fine?

Fentanyl is a Class A controlled substance. President Trump is reminding carriers that it's illegal to ship this shit in the first place.

He is not reminding, he is ordering. There is a difference. Those who continue to support Trump are in essence supporting a dictator. As soon as he starts just ordering whatever he likes on Twitter is when he has gone off the deep end. You just dont see it yet, but you will...
