Why doesn't RFK Jr. just put Trump's pecker in his mouth? It'd be less embarrassing

RFK Jr: "A Democratic senator claimed it's mathematically impossible to have a drug drop by 600%. I said, 'Well, if the drug was $100 and it raises to $600, that would be a 600% rise. If it drops from $600 to $100, that's a 600% savings.'" Trump: "Right"

The guy spouting this bullshit has an Ivy League education

Trump has a "different way" of doing a lot of things. It's called being a demented moron who doesn't know how anything works.

The Right prescription--screwing over Americans yet again

More than half the drugs on the TrumpRx site have a cheaper generic version on the market. Pristiq, an antidepressant, is available with a TrumpRx coupon for ~$200 for a 30-day supply. A generic version is on GoodRx for less than $30 and Mark Cuban's CostPlusDrugs for $16.65.

Nobody this stupid should be anywhere near our government

FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times F: Not a 600% cut L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now

Yes--and it's not even close

Trump: We’re going to get the drug prices down by 1000% 600% 500% 1500%. Numbers that are not even thought to be achievable. Is Donald Trump the dumbest person to ever hold public office?

First they came for the pharmaceuticals

In light of The New York Times story this past weekend on price gouging in the drug industry (who could have ever guessed?), hedge fund manager and drug industry investor Martin Shkreli tried to do damage control on TV for raising the price on a drug his company makes for $1 from $18 a pill to $750 per pill.  The drug, which is used to help pregnant women and HIV patients with parasitic infections, was developed 62 years ago so it was hard for Shkreli to argue they were trying to recoup investment costs, but he nonetheless claimed the pill was still a bargain.

And caviar might be a bargain at $70 an ounce, but you aren't going to see too many everyday Americans spreading it on their Ritz crackers....

After much blowback from ordinary Americans (and Hillary Clinton vowing to take on the drug industry which caused Big Pharma stocks to drop), Shkreli said he would reduce the price, though he didn/t say to what price.  Make no mistake, though, about the bigger picture:  folks like Shkreli will not be happy until they have all of our money.

And don't be surprised when they start fiddling with the price of our food next.
