Our math whiz commander in chief is once again promising to lower drug prices by 1,000 percent in the next year and a half"something that is virtually impossible.

"Now the drug companies agree that I'm right, and the countries ... if they don't agree, I'll use tariffs to get them to agree. You understand?" Trump said in an interview on Fox News.

"We're gonna be reducing drug costs over the next year, year and a half, by"not fifty or sixty percent"by a thousand percent. Because if you think, a $10 pill going so. ... It'll be raised up from $10 to $20 because it's the world versus us," Trump rambled. "So it'll go from $10 to $20, from $10 to $50 or $60 for them. Which is bearable. And it'll go from $10 to $20 for us."

Easily understood, how this deeply stupid person managed to go bankrupt six times, three of those times gong big belly-up in the ... wait for it ... casino business.

Impossible?

Not for a self-proclaimed genius who thinks he can cut costs by 1,000%.

Nothing new.
Why, a couple of weeks ago, Old Senescent claimed 300 million died from drugs last year.
300 million in a nation of 340 million.
So about 9 out of every 10 people you see?
Trump thinks they died.
Last year.
That's dementia for you.

He is the "R-word". They should make him wear a hockey helmet even though he doesn't play hockey.

He thinks people are stupid enough to believe this obvious lie.

He is correct.

Can anyone from the Right explain what Trump was actually meaning?

Biden "beat medicare" putting in no effort - because the drug prices he "lowered" were already scheduled to go public, and even then he whittled it down to just 10.

What happened to the public healthcare that Trump promised? "Better than Obamacare" happens when?

I believe him.

I also believe he can divide by zero.

Of course it's awful he doesn't understand math.

Even worse is, his sycophants are either too stupid or too afraid to correct him.

Neither of those possibilities bodes well.
