Trump Breaks Promise To Reduce Drug Prices

[UCmeNdc]

Yet another broken promise from Trump, this time concerning drug prices. After meeting with Big Pharma yesterday, Trump announced that he would not pursue a plan to negotiate better prices with them, but instead would just give them some tax cuts and deregulate their products.

Suddenly it is less important to Republicans that drugs be regulated. How odd.


snip......


So, broken promise, then. Medicare recipients, take heed. Trump will not protect Medicare and he will not protect Social Security. He lied to you.

He lied to you.

He lied to you.

Do not forget that.

3. So the drug companies get to make even more money

for producing less-regulated and therefore more dangerous drugs, and we still have to pay as much as ever.

4. Who would have thought that Trumpy lied? What a surprise!

When will it dawn on this crumbling civilization that Trumpy lies about EVERYTHING?

Hello, folks! Trumpy LIES about everything!

Assume he lies about everything right from the get-go, and you'll be far better at predicting what he'll do, when he'll do it.

5. And the first thing he said at the Supreme Court announcement: "I'm a man of my word"

I tweeted to him that statement and the fact he lied about the drug promise.
