Trump to announce Trump RX website with lower priced Pfizer drugs

[indigovalley]

Trump is going to announce this morning that he has reached some kind of deal with Pfizer to sell many of their pharmaceuticals at discount prices. The website will be called "Trump RX".

I take Eliquis which is very expensive but I'm not going to buy it from "Trump RX" if any of the payment is going into his pockets.

3. Dear God

We've had to endure A LOT over the last few days (shut down, Portland, Chicago, The generals fiasco, MAGA takeovver at Ryder Cup). But THIS? This meglomania has put me over the top.

4. The smarter deal would have been a collab

With Mark Cuban and his CostPlus Drugs site, which works nicely but doesn't take insurance atm.

Of course he can't do anything right.

5. Well we can't have Obama Care (republican provided lingo)

w/o tRump's name on something to do with healthcare now can we?

7. Republicans are okay with this.

8. Just an observation but how does this help you with no health insurance?

Skyrocketing prices of health insurance mean people won't be going to the doctor to get life saving meds prescribed in the first place.

I am all for lower prescription drug prices but this isn't going to change the horrific policies on health care that Trump is putting forth.

9. It is a PR game.

10. I expect the website to carry the drugs that are out of patent only...

No new, expensive drugs. And at only a small discount, because *rump needs to get his cut.

Probably still can find them cheaper at Costco using Good RX Gold. Or at Mark Cuban 's site.

11. Pfizer better find a hidden loophole because I'd NEVER buy from TRUMPRx.

Fortunately, I'm not on prescription meds, but that can change for any of us in a heartbeat. What I DO need is annual vaccines, and I assume these are separate.

12. Op just fyi for Eliquis

I take that also I use a hometown pharmacy which guided me to this where am I paying $10 a month for it.

Originally, the monthly amount was going to be insane.
