7. He's a manly man, he doesn't want any of that wussy "baby aspirin"

Is it any wonder that the guy nicknamed Donnie Two Scoops thinks that more is necessarily better?


Also, FWIW, both the headline and lede are clickbaity BS. Nobody competent would be "stunned" or "floored" by a patient taking a 325mg instead of an 81mg. People do shit like that all the time, for a variety of reasons -- good or bad -- especially narcissistic morons like The Dotard.
