Big Pharma is taking television ads trying to make the case that I am raising prescription drug prices on seniors. The ad is a lie! What I have done will lead to a 50% REDUCTION in prices, at least, & Big Pharma is not happy about it. No other President would....
...be able to produce what I have. So when you see those nasty ads from Big Pharma remember, the only reason they are going all out is the massive PRICE REDUCTIONS you are getting - not good for them. Plus, I was only President in 51 years that got a Prescription D reduction!

(11,607 posts)5. If it was that simple, wouldn't President Obama have done it?
Or President Clinton, or any other Democratic president in the past 50 years?
For once, I agree with what Trump is trying to do (or at least purports to be trying to do), but I can't imagine it's as simple as an executive order. If it were I imagine Democratic presidents would have thought of it.

...did would be PINO did, is because they were smart enough to know that it doesn't work that way!
They could have signed a meaningless piece of paper, but weren't that stupid.
