Trump and Autism

Jeremy Schulman writes at Mother Jones:

Trump is an advocate for the completely baseless theory that vaccines can cause autism. "I've seen people where they have a perfectly healthy child, and they go for the vaccinations, and a month later the child is no longer healthy," he said on Fox in 2012. "It happened to somebody that worked for me recently. I mean, they had this beautiful child, not a problem in the world. And all of a sudden, they go in, they get this monster shot. You ever see the size of it? It's like they're pumping in—you know, it's terrible, the amount. And they pump this into this little body. And then all of the sudden, the child is different a month later. And I strongly believe that's it."
