Original Note:
In late 2019 President Trump was set to ban flavored vapes. The industry lobbied against it. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-11-15/trump-s-vaping-ban-is-delayed-as-he-reconsiders-impact-on-jobs He then met with members of the vaping industry. https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2019-11-11/trump-to-meet-with-vaping-industry And then he reversed the plan. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-50463613 Vaping is always a target from both sides but no, he did not "save vaping."
