Sonhouse!!!!Good morning. Well, you can finally applaud Trump, he must have been reading your posts!! Drug prices down!! What will be your next cause? Finding a Dem leader would be a good start. Look what Kamala said last night. She says there are 'many' leaders. She says we can ALL lead or some such crap. loser.

To govern is to execute the will of the people. To rule is to execute (or fire) whoever doesn’t comply with the ruler. Guess which one Trump admires most and is daily moving to emulate.

Except the prices aren't actually down, are they?

"Any day now."

????? If the employees of my widget factory are discontented with their supervisor, the foreman on the floor, or whomever, they may make this known to me, the owner, and I will fire the supervisor. Happy employees makes for a successful business. So, I will, as you say, execute the will of the people.

This scenario hardly gives rise to your inane question. Geez.

YOu will do better on the Epstein thread, i assume. How is it going over there?


Trump's executive order requires drug companies to sell their products at the same price in the US as they do in Europe. Big pharma sells products in US at 3 times more than what they charge in Europe. They have 90 days to comply.
Makes sense to me.

You mean the executive order from 4 months ago, or is there a new one now? That other one was signed more than 90 days ago.

These libs must have been raised with instant gratification. (I made that up). So, they incur more angst with each passing day of “Not getting it NOW!!!” Here in adult years it has not served them well. A certain stock that I bought last year for $100 is now worth $200. For some reason I did not get antsy during the ‘crisis of wait.’ It made my life much easier.

No I mean the SECOND executive order after that, where Trump said "OK you fcu.kers ignored me so now it's ON! Do it in 90 days or else.

Trump demands a lot of things.

The British protesters have it right: He is an overinflated big bully baby.

He has been going too far. The ripples will rebound.

Oh boy I hope they listen this time. Gave them a deadline eh? That means business? I heard 1200% lower which means pharma pays us to take drugs. Seems like another example of feckless parenting by Trump.

Action, not words.
Why would you believe Trump intends to do what he says this time? He lies frequently.


Yeah. He’s lowering the medicine prices by 1500 procent, seemingly.
Dumb arse Americans.
