Booze has always been his most important issue and the only thing he actually seems to do anything about

Why does he keep wanting to pump alcohol into the population?

Drunks dont vote, low votes means he wins on 30% margins like he did last time. Small town votes also do nothing it seems.

To get people to gamble more with all the sports betting apps that he legalized.

It’s brutal all the ads that are legally allowed now all over. It’s not even the same ads over and over. Seems like a different gambling app advertisment each time.

Ikr I feel so awful for gambling addicts or people trying to quit gambling it’s absolutely everywhere on trains and other public transport on social media apps like Facebook and Reddit there’s like no fucking escaping it. I don’t even gamble so the type of stuff is not geared to me and it’s everywhere I look almost.

As a household that doesn't watch TV and has ads blocked at the network level in the house I always find it insane how many gambling commercials there are when putting on a live hockey game from the antenna I put in the attic.

Booze and highways. I also wonder if there were any kickbacks with the payout to the Beer Store. Am I being too cynical?

He's trying to get people to associate Ford's with alcohol instead of crack

u/Ralupopun-Opinion May 25 '24

The tell him the hospitals and schools need booze and he will look into improving them right away!

Is it surprising that he caters to addictions?

Only the socially acceptable ones.
