Where ever this country lands after the "Perfect MRI" is gone?

It will take years to recover, rebuild and restore the country!

I was talking with a lady today that was in real danger of losing her job, pension, health insurance all because of Trump’s nefarious actions. She said that she never voted for ever, but her husband was a Trumper before he passed away a couple of years ago.

She said that she had been with this mfg company for 30+ years and with the latest tariffs and the economy tanking, she didn’t know how long before she is out of of a job. She is just a few months older than I am. She is a shipper clerk manager and she said that several have already been laid off or completely let go due the economy.

Hopefully she can hang on to her job? She is a very pleasant and positive person. But this is not a good situation for her or anyone else.

Trump isn’t just tearing down the East Wing! He’s tearing down the public’s hope and dreams!

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique that uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images of the organs and tissues inside the body. It is particularly useful for examining soft tissues, such as the brain and spinal cord, and does not involve harmful ionizing radiation like X-rays.

It's the procedure where you are on a narrow flat 'table' that SLOWLY goes through a tube (like being inside a water heater) or the newer version: a big 'donut', that captures images of what is inside the body.

Edited to add more info:

More info: [excerpt

Of most interest in regards to Trump:

MRI of the brain and spinal cord

MRI is the most frequently used imaging test of the brain and spinal cord. It's often performed to help diagnose:

Aneurysms of cerebral vessels.
Conditions of the eye and inner ear.
Multiple sclerosis.
Spinal cord conditions.
Stroke.
Tumors.
Brain injury from trauma.

Many authoritarians come to power and/or stay in power because the public is demoralized.
