It's pretty sad congress couldn't get together and do this so Trump had to do it himself, course its not really a surprise since big pharma has MANY congress folks in their pockets
I am not sure of the legality of what Trump is doing as far as drug pricing. I guess I would have to get into the weeds of this a bit to know better, but I approve if he does anything constructive to rein in the outrageous price gouging the pharmaceutical industry has been pillaging us with.
It seems like the kind of thing a real populist should do. What took him so long?
He is trying to get re-elected, which shouldnt be confused with caring or trying to do the right thing. Like I said, abolish the FDA (a major killer and a big part of his swamp)
You’re right, but if this gets drug prices down, then I will take it as a win for the American people. I don’t like trump, but I really don’t like price gouging on necessary pharmaceutical drugs.
This is a good move for society no? Obama should have done it. GWB should have done it. Clinton should have done it. Ad Nauseum...
Actually Clinton and Obama had health programs in the works which could have addressed pharmaceutical gouging, but the lobby is very well funded and fended off all challengers with the help of Republicans in Congress.
Im not sure he actually can legally do this. But...lol. OMG this is going to be awesome.
Someone just got Biden a trillion dollars in funding. Literally. And its a darn shame, because I 100% agree with what he is trying to do. I will care about it if it turns out to actually be something he can in fact do. It wont make up for 1/100th of the bad things he has done that's damaged our country, and killed tens of thousands. But congress should have passed this. Decades ago. DECADES.

Insurance companies support the gouging and loved Obamacare.
Why didn't Obama do this same executive order if he cared so much?
