Drug Historian Challenges Trump’s War on Fentanyl

While America pursues a drug war with Venezuela marked by lethal strikes on boats accused of carrying so-called "narco terrorists" (a move which has faced much criticism over its legality), at home the country continues to face a fentanyl issue which is killing thousands of people every year.
