Trump doesn't like to brag about imaginary accomplishments, "to be honest with you," but the news won't write about it [View all]
Trump spent over two hours rattling off a list of his wins, which, according to him, included slashing drug prices “by as much as 300, 400, 500, and even 600 percent” under deals inked with pharmaceutical giants.
“So something that was costing $1,300 is now costing $87,” he said, appearing to reference an earlier anecdote from a “fat” friend who claimed that Ozempic, the GLP-1 medication sometimes used as a weight loss drug, costs $1,300 in New York but $87 in London.
“The fake news doesn’t want to write about it,” Trump said. “That’s why I do this. I don’t like to do this, to be honest with you, but I do it because I gotta get the word out.”
The stock market plummeted as Trump bragged about his economic policies. The Dow slid 870 points, the S&P 500 saw its worst day since October, and the Nasdaq shed 561 points as the market reacted to Trump’s renewed threats to take over Greenland and impose sweeping tariffs on European countries that get in his way.
