BREAKING NEWS: SOMETHING GOOD HAPPENS

Trump calls for broad drug price cuts in executive order

https://www.reuters.com/business/he...ays-he-will-cut-drug-prices-by-59-2025-05-12/

But I can only assume that this is some half-assed attempt that will be considered illegal and go nowhere, like most of his other executive orders.
Trump told a press conference that the government would impose tariffs on companies if the prices in the U.S. did not match those in other countries and said he was seeking cuts of between 59% and 90%.

so he'd punish murican consumers if the companies won't comply. also markets LOVE politicians who demand price cuts. communists used to do that before the 90s, fidesz started to do it too lately, trump to follow.

art of the deal.

If he ends up punishing those who don’t comply it would be very illegal and most likely won’t stand up in court. This is an empty bs effort.
So most likely this is just a plastic dig bone thrown to his stupid base.

...Oh and this is on the same day that Qatar bought Trump.
qatar most probably tried to buy trump already before inauguration day when trump issued his memecoin and collected ~6bn. that miserable airplane might be their 2nd desperate - and failed - attempt

everyone knows that trump only works with murican interests in mind

Which is why I don't want to hear shit from them next time a Democrat brings up expanding Medicare/aid.

The more interesting part is why Qatar chose to do it so openly. It's deliberately humiliating. They want to show the world they own him.

they learned from russia

remember what russian state tv did after election day? they showed nude pictures of melania and said something like "trump should be grateful for his reelection to those who made it possible" or something along these lines

what's shocking is that he's both israel's and qatar's bitch. completely spineless. and carney said to his face in the oval office that "not every real estate is for sale, we're in one" and he smiled to his face
