Earlier this month, at his golf club in Bedminster, N.J., President Donald Trump looked solemnly into the camera, and declared that America’s opioid epidemic was a “national emergency,” and a “serious problem the likes of which we’ve never seen.” “The opioid crisis is an emergency, and I’m saying officially, right now, it is an emergency,” Trump said, adding, “We’re going to draw it up and we’re going to make it a national emergency.” Weeks after that headline-grabbing declaration, Trump’s words remain just that.
