I wonder why Trump wants to cancel cancer research when it has become so promising:

[applegrove]

Just maybe we want to continue funding scientific research. . .

1. The rich don't want any money going to healthcare.

They believe all money belongs to them.

Not for us suckers and losers to go to the doctor and get treatment for illnesses.

[liberal N proud]

2. 25 billion every year

The corporate healthcare industry is making $25 billion dollars each year on our healthcare.

[Celerity]

3. Far more than that. nt

[Laurelin]

4. 1. He doesn't have cancer

2. So why should all his beautiful money pay to help people who do?

[LisaL]

5. It's not his money.

6. Are you sure?

He thinks it is. The question is, can be steal it? He's trying.

7. to Trump, people with cancer are losers

why spend money on losers when you spend it on gold painted monuments?

[Midnight Writer]

8. I worked with a MAGA who always maintained that cancer only struck people with weak characters.

He said if you were a strong person with a positive outlook that you would never get cancer.

I heard him say that to the faces of people who had cancer, or whose family members had cancer.

He died at the age of 57...from cancer.

9. Rich people don't want any of their money going to a cause that could possibly help the common good.

[Vinca]

10. Does cancer research help average Americans? Yes, yes it does. Ergo, Trump does not want to do it.

If it's not a benefit for the 1%, please leave him alone with his ballroom plans and his White House junk yard.

[Nixie]

11. Probably because he wants to find a way to extort things-- steal patents,

grift, grift, grift. After he shakes everyone down and they pay him off, he’ll consider letting scientists continue.

The patents will be $$$.

Ugh, can’t even stand to even contemplate the grifter’s reasoning for anything. So disgusted.

[GreenWave]

12. Until he lines up Trump I don't care care with quacks, they will oppose it.
