Trump-Supporting Dentist Under Fire for Laughing Gas Comments

A self-identified “MAGA dentist” is capturing national headlines after her controversial joke about withholding anesthesia from liberal patients during procedures if they criticized her political beliefs. Dr. Harleen Grewal, a California-based dentist, made this statement at the Republican Liberty Gala two years ago, though footage of her speech has recently gained traction on TikTok. Grewal shared that some patients departed her practice upon seeing her “Wall of Fame,” adorned with images of GOP figures, including one with Donald Trump. She humorously recounted using a secret hat that reads "Make Your Smile Great Again" while treating patients. If they expressed horror, she would reduce the laughing gas, quipping, “you got this, it’s not as bad as you think it is.”The fallout has led to an avalanche of one-star reviews on Yelp, prompting the platform to temporarily suspend the practice's review section. Nevertheless, Grewal stands firm, asserting she prioritizes ethical care for all patients and encourages humor in political discourse.
