(3,864 posts)Is the closest confirmation I see in the article, unless I missed something therein. I mean, it sounds like the sort of scam Trump loves. Use the governments power to shake down corporations, then personally profit off of it. So I'd be a little surprised if it's actually to be 'government run' as opposed to lining his pockets but I guess we'll see

There is no distinction between Trump and the Federal government. Any money going into the government he believes is his.

This won't end well.. because the government will be
controlling everything -- their prices, what they research,
and what they sell.
We are SO screwed.

(35,340 posts)Many many people will be forced to take dangerous
drugs; and many won't be able to get the ones
they want or need.
Not only will people die, but women will have no
choices whatsoever when it comes to their care
and that of the kids they're forced to have.

(26,406 posts)If this isn't a website already being designed and rolled out by prescription drug companies they he is throwing his name on, there is no way Trump will be able to produce a group that can build, and maintain such a site. Think about how long it took to make the Obama exchanges and how iffy they were on roll out.

(1,934 posts)First he imposes huge tariffs on imported drugs using his authority as president, then he forms his own for profit company as a private citizen to personally negotiate with the drug companies to give them an exemption from tariffs he himself imposed only if they sell their drugs through his company. I mean if this is allowed he could do the same thing to every single industry in our country that depends on imports. It's like a mob boss forcing the entire country to pay him protection money.
