        What is DMSO? I need all the ammo I can get talking to people in my area that are already regretting Trump. But they say shit like it’s ok, RFK is there, I wanted to vote for him anyway. Hedging their bets.

          DMSO is an industrial solvent that was all the rage in the late 70’s/early 80’s because people said it had magic powers to cure everything. By itself it showed some uses for pain relief but it also has the ability to absorb other chemicals and transfer those chemicals through the skin - which could have bad results.

          People who use it repeatedly have a sulfur-ish funk to them.

          I don’t know if RFKjr uses DMSO, but it seems up his alley.
