Autism is not a disease. You cannot catch Autism. It’s not communicable. This same debunked rhetoric is so old it’s dust in the wind.
Autism rates are “up” because clinical evaluations and criterion have improved over the years.
Imagine that. Science at work!

Sorry.
The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired.

If you perform at the Trump inauguration or at any related events you are endorsing him. Full stop. And it’s no more defensible than if you performed for Putin or Orban or in the 1930s for the German chancellor. You can dress it up all you want but that’s what it is.
