Ahem. Trump’s *autopen* signs the tax on American citizens who buy medications.
ElPlywood on
Why 100? why not 450? or 700? or even 1300%? Or 3200 to 3500%?

Shithole country.

Americans winning…jumping up and down because they will now pay more for their meds…yay Trump.

I really hope when Dems get back into office they strip Trump of the tariff power.
Ever since he got into office he has been manipulating the markets via tariffs.

What a stupid, stupid man. But hey, yeah, keep blaming Europe for high drug prices in the US lol

This is fucking stupid and pointless.

Oh Boy he is in trouble tonight when he can’t get VIAGRA tm and Karoline is left to go home to the other old guy in her life.
zombiekoalas on
An estimated 53% of the brand-name drugs in the US are imported.
He just doubled the price of over half of the brand-name medication. We’re to the flailing phase. Random bullshit go.
This will cause deaths.
ultralightdude on
Hasn’t it already been ruled he doesn’t have the power to do this? This entire presidency is a series of clusterfucks.

This the same guy who recently claimed he’d lower drug prices by 1500% 🤦♂️
thepartypantser on
Yet again Trump shows a stounding ignorance of world economies. I’m all for trying to get lower priced medication for people. Don’t think this will accomplish it. And that’s not what this really is about. This is about the concept that everything needs to be manufactured in the United States along with Trump’s other isolationist policies. And it’s going to backfire and make things more expensive, probably won’t actually be long lasting manufacturing, and quite likely will have other unforeseen repercussions .

I thought he couldn’t pull these bullshit tariffs anymore?

The crazy part is that he rapes children

Don’t forget that we also import 80-90% of generic drugs.
>Roughly 80% to 90% of generic drugs and their active ingredients (APIs) used in the U.S. are imported, with significant reliance on India and China.

As if medications aren’t too expensive already.
This is a huge “F You” to his MAGA base.
WhiskeyTangoFoxy on
So the US can go bankrupt paying these back in 6 months when SCOTUS also deems these illegal?

Is Trump dead and Putin running America?

Exemption for EU, Japan, UK, but Switzerland not exempt here be worried about drugs from Switzerland here. Donald Stalin wants weakest links to die from lack of medication.

I hate this administration so much. This move will price us out of my wife’s medication.

It’s market manipulation. He’ll suddenly change his mind next week.
BradlyPitts89 on
A fire hose of crisis and corruption. These lunatics line up with smiles on their face knowing very well the American consumer ends up paying for tariffs. Almost every move he does ends up with a transfer of wealth tot the top, on a day he said they can’t afford daycare or healthcare. Gutless.
love-broker on
This will lower drug prices 75-80 percent. Some say as much as 300 to 500 percent.
jaxiepie7 on
This clearly has nothing to do with the fact that Trump’s illegal war against Iran has disrupted the global generic pharmaceutical industry… right? Nothing to do at all with the fact that many more people will have to use brand name drugs and pay through the nose for them so that this child raping ghoul can continue to fleece the American people. Nothing. At. All.

Donald Trump is literally a fucking low IQ sadist.
Can we fucking remove him from office already??!

There is zero doubt, across the board and by every metric. Donald J Trump is the worst President in the history of the United States. Period. End of story.

I just want basic guaranteed healthcare.
I’ll literally die before this country figures out it’s okay to make life better for one another, and I’m far from the only one.
Unfortunately a large number of Americans are so concerned about who gets what slice of the pie they’d rather starve.

Remember when this guy raped children and your representatives did nothing about it?
Jhonka86 on
Jesus, this is outrageously illegal.
Not only does he not have tariff powers (yes I know the SC only ruled on IEEPA but their logic extends beyond), this is a fundamental infringement on intellectual property and “corporate speech.”
It’s not All Drugs Over A Certain Price, it’s Drugs With Branding. The impact is absolutely not supplier neutral, and undeniably favors some companies over others.
Rerun this analysis in your head for cola products. Would it be legal to tariff Coca-Cola, but not Shasta? Even that is a brand, so Kroger would have to just start selling a white box labeled “cola.”
Honestly, I don’t know what would stop Pfizer from just selling the drug as generic at branded prices, so long as they still have the patent nobody else could make it. They’d still have a monopoly.

This is illegal and should immediately go to courts.

Is he mad because TrumpRX is a disaster, because we don’t want to fund his war, losing the birthright case, or is it just because he is a pedophile?

All this because too many would not vote for the black woman.
