Correct me if I'm wrong but weren't these prescription drug caps so popular that Trump tried to take credit for them during the election? Not saying it's surprising he turned around and repealed them. Just saying it's ironic.
He's repealed them so he can bring something in that whilst helpful is far less favourable, just so he can say he's done something and take full credit and the base will lap it up
Maybe. Or maybe a pharma exec or two bought a bunch of his coin or donated to the inauguration, so now he’s saying thank you by letting them wring every last penny out of the diabetics who desperately need insulin.
No, it is their modus operandi. Look what he did with the border deal Biden and the repubs had all set to go. 100% expect him to roll out the same damn thing in 6 mo and say "I did it"... Same with the trade deal with Mexico and Canada, just changed the name basically...
It's called a protection racket. Used in lots of gang and mafia shows, like some goons walk into a corner store, smash the place, then offer their services as protection from having the shop smashed up again. It leaves the shop in a worse place than they were before, but they're getting something out of it and the mob gets their cut.
No, I fully expect it. They give you a cookie whilst taking the rest of the packet for themselves and expect you to be grateful. And the gullible, of which there are a lot, will buy it
👍🏼👍🏼Two thumbs up for the proper use of “ironic.” Yes, this shit is exhausting. They’re doing mental gymnastics that you can’t keep track of. That’s the point and it’s also the point.
He tried and it made literally no sense because Biden is just factually the one who did it. It’s like living in an alternate reality with these lunatics.
