    I expected some kind of explanation in the article as to how this was ever legal. Nada.

    I’m not the Puritanical sort of American, but damn, it was legal to sell children a wildly addictive drug?! Trump, via Melania, not on his own brainpower, had the US (FDA?) ban all nicotine products to people under 21 a few years ago. And at least it was 18 before that!

        Thought the article might offer some reason, cultural or otherwise, as to why this was legal in the first place.

        Also, found it amusing that Trump was actually on point for once. Very strange to think that man actually passed a ban that a European county had not. (Again, that’s on Melania, not his dumb ass.)
