CALLING ON THE VAPING COMMUNITY TO CONTACT PRESIDENT TRUMP

[WorksForMe]

Is it going to Hurt juul anymore than it is going to Hurt Everyone Else?

Nope. The kids will still buy a juul, no matter what flavors are available.

Comes done to regulating parenting and that's never going to happen.I sent emails to my representatives but I'm not optimistic. I hate Washington and Washington hates Trump. He still gets my vote for that alone.

The best strategy according Demetris and PBusardo is to hire a professional PR company to combat the false information that the news media and anti-vaping crowd has been churning out every day/nite on TV and social media. That will take a LOT of money (millions according to D & P). The US vaping industry doesn't have that type of money, but the big manufacturers in China do. China manufacturers will be affected by this if the US vaping industry fails, because it will fail if a flavor ban is successful.



Trump is the key person in all of this. He's the one who will make the final call by using his John Hancock, and he's been known to go against the grain of "The Swamp" in Washington. He is basically only interested in satisfying his voter base. All vapers need to personally contact Trump via the White House and tell him, as a voter, that if he is going to get your vote in 2020 he needs to NOT go forward with a flavor ban. Regardless of how you feel about Trump, or whether you'll actually vote for him when the time comes, this must be done and would take each of us only about 5 - 10 minutes of our time.

Contact the White House | The White House

WHITE HOUSE: Comment line 202-456-1111 | Switch board 202-456-1414 (the switch board is the best approach as it will put you on hold and give you a chance to speak)
_________________________

Trump probably doesn't have a clue about vaping. He doesn't understand how important the use of flavored e-liquid is to the success to stop smoking. Having only "tobacco flavors" to choose from just won't cut it for the majority of vapers.

What he must understand is that a flavor ban will likely destroy the vaping industry in the US. Vape shops will not be able remain viable and will close - a loss of thousands of jobs and small businesses. This will affect his "sterling" numbers of the lowest unemployment in recent memory. There has to be at least 10,000 potential voters who have something to do with the vaping community (probably more), about the number of votes that gave him the presidency. He's not going to want to lose that many votes in the next election.

A flavor ban will result in creating its own Black Market. Many vapers will resort to making their own flavored e-liquid. How did that work out for the homemade black market THC vials that killed 6 people and put over 400 people in intensive care?

Smokers looking to quit smoking will no longer have vape shops or US based online vendors to purchase e-cigarettes. Many vapers will return to smoking, which will increase the 400,000 smokers who died last year.

Please tale a few minutes of your time to contact President Trump.

I just now went to that link and sent a message to Trump. I just hope someone actually reads it. And that i didnt just put my personal info on a watchist.

The best way to reach him is by tweeting him. He does Twitter himself.

 

[Mowgli]

Now he's backpedaling. BUT KEEP CALLING WH AND TWEETING (edited).

This grab is from Labworks (Aussie)
From Dr. F (Greece)
I dunno which timezone the timestamp indicates.

My take on 45's latest distraction is:

Step 1 - Piss off vapers
Step 2 - Take it back
result = more votes from the triggered
also result = States still fighting bans - SSDD

 

[Horselady154]

AND TWEETING (edited).

Please keep the partisan insults out of this.

 

[Mowgli]

Please keep the partisan insults out of this.

Sorry. Keep tweeting (edited)

 

[Horselady154]

Look @Mowgli, we are all in this together as vapers. There is no reason to inject partisan politics into this, is there? There is plenty of blame to go around. You hate Trump, ok, and blame him. I have also watched numerous congressional hearings with Democrats calling for banning all of it. So, there is plenty of blame to go around whether you wear a red beanie or a blue beanie. Come on. There is no sense in this.

Exactly.

I also find it somewhat Comical that No One in the media mentions that Banning Flavors is going to encourage Teens to do DIY.

We're not discussing congressional hearings with Democrats.
We're discussing a manipulative corporate raider doing what he's always done.
This is a concerted long con. He & his cronies have been planning this for months IMO.
Agree to disagree. He DGAF about us.

Keep calling and keep tweeting. That's the bottom line.

 

[Baditude]

PLEASE stop the infighting. That doesn't help our cause at all. We're supposed to be on the same team. There is no "I" in TEAM. Don't be part of the problem, be a part of the solution.

 

[JohnWT]

Trump yesterday: I don't like vaping.

Trump today: I like vaping as an alternative to cigarettes.

Me: SMDH...

C-SPAN's Washington Journal spent an hour on vaping this morning and accepted a lot of callers giving comments. You can listen to what happened online, if you wish to. It was the first hour, so choose Watch from the Beginning. Open Phones, Part 1 | C-SPAN.org

If you can't control yourself and insist on acting like a 5 year old please take it Outside. We don't want this thread closed.

 

[Vape1048]

Keep the political slurs out of it please.
Thank you

There has been a lot going on this past week. During the last couple of days I've seen four videos that are among the best that I've ever seen. First up is about someone who made his own fact check video about the fake news the media and Washington has been putting out.



Next, CNN's Chris Cuomo and Gregory Conley, the president of the American Vaping Association, debate over the detrimental impact of vaping products among children. Guomo is a bully and tries to rattle Conley, who under the circumstance did quite well against Guomo's aggressive style. I almost destroyed the computer monitor while watching this one. Pardon my French, but Cuomo needed to be .....-slapped by Conley.

In what is the most moving testimony on vaping flavors that I've ever seen or heard, this vaper/vape shop owner drove over 500 miles in Michigan to testify in the hearings about a flavor ban in the state of Michigan. I literally screamed at my computer "Yes!!!!" when he talked about his oldest customer, an 87 year old woman who chose "Fruity COPYRIGHTDMCA Cereal" as her favorite flavor. PLEASE watch this video if its the only one you'll watch today.

Conley has been a very busy man this week. He's made at least two appearances on CNN. Here he is being double teamed. Conley does very well, including "owning" Dr. Gupta about being "wrong about Marijuana" for over 20 years. Original recording of this interview was edited by CNN.
