On prescription drug costs, Trump flunks arithmetic in embarrassing fashion
"In Donald Trump’s first term, the president routinely talked about his efforts to lower the costs of prescription medications, but he failed, and drug costs continued to climb. The Republican’s second term, however, was supposed to be different.
In fact, just a couple of months ago Trump appeared on Fox News, claimed he’d been “studying” the pharmaceutical industry — he’s quite the policy wonk, you know — and declared, “I figured it out.” Around the same time, the president signed an executive order ostensibly about lowering drug costs, though the directive didn’t do much.
Two months later, however, Trump is still talking about his ambitions on the issue."
