Remarks by President Trump on Delivering Lower Prescription Drug Prices for All AmericansIssued on: November 20, 2020 2:38 P.M. EST
THE PRESIDENT: Thank you very much. This is a very big announcement — the biggest ever, concerning drugs and drug pricing. So, today, I have to tell you it’s a great honor for me to announce that my administration is issuing two groundbreaking rules to very dramatically lower the price of prescription drugs for the American people, especially for our cherished seniors.
•The unprecedented reformswe’re completing today are the direct result of thehistoric drug pricingexecutive orders Isigned in July
• The first action willsave American seniors billions of dollarsby preventing middlemen — the famous middlemen==, — from ripping off Medicare patients with high prescription prices.
• Currently, drug companies provide large discounts on the price of prescription medicines, including nearly $40 billion in rebates to Medicare Part D plans last year alone.Yet often, middlemen stop those discountsfrom going to the patients —who need it the most.
• Patients pay very high prices, — although we brought it down; first time in 51 years — with the costs adding up to hundreds or even thousands of dollars per year, per patient.
•Today’s action ends this injusticeand requires that these discounts go directly to the people. These are the people that need it.This will save patients up to 30 percent. It could be40percent, could be50percent, could be much higher than that==. These are numbers that nobody has ever even contemplated, and that doesn’t include lifesaving drugs like insulin, which will be even higher. Insulin was destroying lives and destroying families because the cost was so high, and now it’s at a level that nobody can even believe.
•The second rule we are finalizing today will transform the way the U.S. government pays for drugs to end global freeloadingon the backs of American citizens and American patients.Americans have often been charged more than twice as muchfor the exact same drug as other medically advanced countries..
• In case after case, our citizens pay massively higher prices than other nations pay for the same exact pill, from the same factory, effectively subsidizing socialism aboard [abroad] with skyrocketing prices at home. So we would spend tremendous amounts of money in order to provide inexpensive drugs to another country.
• For example,Medicare Part B recipients are forced to spend five times more for a common breast cancer medication than patients in other countries.
• To address this unfairness and to lower prices for Americans, we’refinalizing the Most Favored Nation rule. Nobody has ever done this. The drug companies don’t like me too much,..I just hope they (Bidan Admin) keep it. I hope they have the courage to keep it, because the powerful drug lobby — big pharma — is putting pressure on people like you wouldn’t believe.
• Medicare will now look at the price that other developed nations pay for their drugs. we will pay the lowest price.And we’re talking about savings of 50, 60, 70 percent, 80 percent.
• In a few weeks, my administration will also finalize rulesrequiring federally funded health centers to pass drug company discounts on insulin and EpiPens directly to patients. Well, the price has now come way, way, way down.We capped insulin costs for many seniors at just $35 a month. Saving $1,000 a year just on insulin.
(Joe Bidan, two months ago and before, just took credit for getting epipen & insulin down to $35 and told the world that Trump wanted to jack it up== when it was Trump passed in 2020 the entire thing, Joe takes credit for everything Trump)
Election rigging by Pharma
"Big pharma ran millions of dollars of negative advertisements against me during the campaign — which I won, by the way. But, you know, we’ll find that out. Almost 74 million votes. We had big pharma against us. We had the media against us. We had big tech against us. We had a lot of dishonesty against us. But big pharma alone ran millions and millions of dollars in ads. In fact, I looked at it, and I said, “Who is it? Are they — I’ve never seen anything quite like it.”
(Bobbie Kennedy III just opened up Trump for more attacks on the elections, etc.because Trump wants to investigate childhood vaccines)
