We know that ESCAPE FROM ALCATRAZ was streaming at the time he "truthed" about converting it back to a prison.

Wait. Biden already did this by having Medicare negotiate lower drug prices. So what is he talking about 🤦‍♀️

So - he's copying a Democratic proposal? Are we supposed to think this is an original idea he has? And how does this work if he's going to put tariffs on imported drugs (90% of generics)?

The Real Rapid Response 47 @rapidresponse47.bsky.social

He’s too scared to negotiate so he’s going to set prices, which the GOP routinely refers to as communism, socialism, really any “ism” they’ve been told to dislike. So he rails shortsightedly against a good plan and is too proud to adopt the good plan when he realizes other options are worse.

Trump's plan is nothing more than a statement setting proposed criteria for target pricing baselines... prelude to Medicare negotiations. This is not news, but rather smacks of an "infrastructure week" announcement!

He’ll slash prices of the drugs and then make them unavailable or unattainable because of the cuts to Medicare. So… pointless.
