Trump says he's drafting up paperwork to declare the opioid crisis a national emergency. The task force actually came up with some sound proposals for what needs to be done, but I fully expect this to get totally bungled. I expect him to latch onto the 'fund more research for non-opioid painkillers' recommendation, package it as a massive handout to pharmaceuticals, and call it a day.
