    I've always low-key blamed Trump (and his minions) on lead poisoning - paint, exhaust from leaded gasoline, old pipes & so forth. I suppose there's some portion that's explained by inbreeding. But, I guess some portion of the phenomenon could also be explained by uncooked pork products....

    My solution is good $100 custom inserts and Red Wings. Cleared up plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, and a number of leg/back problems. I think the inserts were more important than the Red Wings, but they are a quality boot.
