WTF, he’s the one that banned it in the first place. He created this problem.
Yet he did nothing to stop the FDA from decimating the market by putting 95% of companies out of business while he was president. He’s so full of shit.
They hadn’t bribed him enough that time. It should be blatantly obvious to everyone that he will do or say anything anyone wants if they pay him enough. He’s bought, and that’s a huge national security risk. No security expert would ever willingly provide him with a security clearance, but here the brain dead half* of Americans go with attempting to re-elect the guy who sold Israel’s nuclear secrets for 2 billion dollars after leaving office.
The Planet Money episode on this was an interesting listen. If I remember correctly, after the bans he held this weird discussion group at the White House where everyone just talked over each other, and he ended it completely noncommittally.
There’s no dick this guy won’t suck for money.
offer to suck before claiming he’s never seen or heard of that dick before
Big feta would like a word with him
THE SAVIOR HAS RISEN
GOD BLESS KING TRUKMP
Of all the things that need saving, flavored vapes are… not on that list.
Disposable vapes need to be saved. And by saved, I mean completely banned.
If the cheque clears, anything can go on the list.
It’s definitely a weird thing to brag about.
Let’s buy a couple of Trump NFTs and create a line called “Trump-meme vapes” where we put Trump’s NFT on the label and a meme used by Trump supporters. We’ll offer beautiful-sounding flavors such as:
- Ocean Breeze
- Champion’s Dinner
- Billionaire Mystique
Which will actually taste like:
- fish
- happy meal
- poop
Call ourselves a parody company and send all proceeds to Harris
It’s too late, Snus/zyn has already captured the teen market.
No amount of flavor banning or unbanning will remove snus from the hands of children.
It makes me sick to say it, but Trump is right on this one. If the FDA hadn’t cracked down so hard on open systems, sketchy disposable vapes wouldn’t be as prolific as they are now.
The FDA implemented the PMTA (Premarket Tobacco product Application) process. This means that anything vaping related must get their approval before it can be sold in the US.
This sounds good on the surface, but it’s not for two reasons: products without nicotine are considered tobacco products, and literally every SKU has to go through the process.
A single application costs over $250,000. This means if you are an eliquid manufacturer and have 5 flavors with 4 different strengths each, you have to submit 20 applications. That money is gone if you don’t get approved, and the FDA has only approved a handful of them.
This caused nearly every reputable manufacturer to close shop and left the sketchy companies who will just rebrand after getting shut down.
All of this for a product that legitimate studies show is 95% safer than smoking.
When did the FDA finalize that policy? January 2, 2020.
Who was still president? Donald Trump.
True, but the FDA gained the power to regulate tobacco products in 2009.
Ya know, I’ve heard of all this before but all the vape shops I’ve been to have been… practically unaffected, with all the flavors and mods, coils and such one wants. Are they all just running until they get shutdown? Lol
Its a lot harder to shop online, but yeah, local vape stores havent had any issues stocking it would appear. Candy king and custard monster seem to be uneffected.

I had to look up the PMTA as I’d never heard about it. Wasn’t this implemented back in the 2000s?
Uh oh, that means vaping is in big trouble. You remember when Donald saved coal?
The company, which has contributed millions of dollars to the pro-Trump super PAC Make America Great Again Inc., did not respond to questions about the meetings.
Standard everyday bribe. Nothing to see here.
So you’re telling me Donnie’s launching a line of vapes…
Not yet, but it wouldn’t shock me. Or at least a “Trump flavor” for some vape company.
Don’t give Gwyneth Paltrow any ideas.
“This Vape Juice Tastes Like My Vagina?”
🤮
🤮
Man, I always get tricked by these fucking Onion articles. Oh wait…
Please God, give me a real photo of trump vaping. It would be so fucking funny.
What a joke
