1. Hey orange bozo! It's bc US runs for-profit healthcare (ripoffs) but advanced countries have SINGLE-PAYER health care.nt

[malaise]

14. How are you today?

Recovering quickly I hope

[Bernardo de La Paz]

19. Much improved! Thanks for asking. Energy is mostly back and longer term recovery is very promising

Had my first good night's sleep in 7 days last night.

[yardwork]

2. How is he going to do that?

[jls4561]

3. LIV Golf is going to subsidize my meds?

[yardwork]

5. Your guess is as good as mine.

17. Nixon froze prices in 1971. All prices.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nixon_shock

The Nixon shock has been widely considered to be a political success but an economic failure for bringing on the 1973–1975 recession, the stagflation of the 1970s, and the instability of floating currencies.

4. Sounds like the genius of the stable has a tariff scheme that will actually strangle the supply to the US. . . . nt

[2MuchNoise]

16. "genius of the stable" LOL.

[Nanuke]

6. He did not author this. Not enough grammar, useage, or spell8ng errors.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

29. Also

it's way too long. He can't sustain that much attention to one subject.

[roamer65]

7. Get ready for a prescription drug shortage.

[underpants]

13. Or cuts to R&D. We pay for much if not most research thru universities

[dalton99a]

8. The evil tyrant is playing with people's lives

and loving every second of it

[scipan]

9. seems like he's saying that the *govt* (i.e., Medicare ) will only pay the lowest in the world.

Leaving us with the rest of the tab.

[Scrivener7]

10. That's not how any of this works.

[Silent Type]

11. So, are we now for higher drug prices? Despise trump, but not sure it's smart for Dems to oppose his plan,

at least until we find trump is screwing us again.

[underpants]

20. Agreed. Offer legislation to codify this that's been killed before

God knows Dems have been trying to do this for decades.

[Silent Type]

21. Seriously. Jump on it tomorrow.

[erronis]

12. More power to all of you that can read his word diarrhea.

My brain has created a firewall that blocks spewings with ALL CAPS or clumps of undigested gristle.

[2MuchNoise]

18. I couldn't read it. He gives me a headache.

[KewlKat]

15. I suppose the drug company stocks will take a dive tomorrow?

More opportunity for the pig to increase his wealth.

[hatrack]

22. Yes, prices will fall 30% to 80% because I say so, therefore, I hereby proclaim, hummana, hummana, hummana . . .

Pathetic, damaged bullshit.

(Thank you for your attention to this matter!!)

[Takket]

23. so.. some thoughts.....

This is something I've wanted to see for a long time.

That being said, I don't trust him to do this ethically or correctly to make sure costs are more fairly shared without putting drugs completely out of reach for more impoverished countries. In other words, this is a scam for him to get richer. We just don't know the details yet.

Also: An executive order is not a law. There is nothing pharmaceutical companies need to do with this other than wipe their ass. If Biden could have done this by EO, he would have. This is nothing more than a headlines grabber that drumpf and company know will never actually result in any change.

[Self Esteem]

25. There's no right way to do price controls.

This idea is garbage entirely because it's a garbage theory regardless who handles it.

[Self Esteem]

24. It's funny how Trump has basically turned into a socialist.

[underpants]

31. He's the steward of the store he says

He sells things where supply is consistent. He sells space (real estate) and membership.

[pcdb]

33. ...and weird that it's infuriating Democrats.

Not sure how he plans to pull it off but I'm finding it hard to get outraged by lower drug prices.

[Self Esteem]

35. Because it doesn't work.

Price controls don't work and won't work here.

[gab13by13]

26. Everyone is so excited

about a Krasnov post on the internet.

No wonder he is the best at conning people.

I am going to wait until the major drug companies post something.

[biocube]

27. Most unpredictable president ever

And that includes 45.

Maybe he saw some story on cable news about how Americans are going to get crushed by drug prices and panicked.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

28. What an asshole.

"I'll sign a blank piece of paper in the morning and tada! Drug prices will be lowered!"

There's no way he wrote that. It's not difficult to USE HIS STYLE!!! while using words he's never heard of before, and so very many of them.

What a stupid piece of shit.

[Meowmee]

30. He didn't write this and it's bs

Research has nothing to do with the costs here... lack of price controls and greed does. W I think was the one that stopped real price controls being required. So that it would not cost 15k for one breast cancer injection or about 3k for one pen of tymlos which equals one month treatment. Everything else whoever wrote this is the same bs.

[rickyhall]

32. Remember what everything he does turns to.

[DET]

34. Does he think he can just wave a magic wand?

I can’t figure out if he’s trying to screw pharmaceutical companies, the rest of the world, or us - but it has to be someone. I’m terrified that he’s going to screw up access to the cancer drugs that have kept my husband alive for the past five years. For a PR stunt.

[usedtobedemgurl]

36. Didn't they just say they were undoing

Price protections Biden put in place for things like insulin?
