Let’s not forget that Penguin refused access to Narcan during his awful time in office.

His logic was that people struggling with addiction might learn different behavior by watching their peers die from overdoses. He is a person who doesn’t have compassion for other people. In either case we cannot have awful people like penguin back in positions of trust. Send him back to the bars in Florida.

Also refused to obey the law to expand MaineCare (should've been Impeached). Cut nearly every single program in Maine funded by the state government that was put in place to help people in need. Etc, etc, etc.

He also doesn't understand how addiction works. You can watch your best buddy waste away, it doesn't matter. That absolute NEED to use again will override all sense and reason eventually.

I suspect that Penguin actually does understand how addiction works, because he seemed to have a serious alcohol problem last time he was in office. You may recall that he left a drunken, threatening rant for Legislature member Drew Gattine that made Maine look like a third world regime.

I wish it were a lack of understanding. I think it’s actually intolerance and hate.
