Trump could always use his own fortune to help out the people he promises that he desperately wants to help.


....you know, that same Trump that used his slush fund foundation to pay an $8 Boyscouts fee.

From the piece;

"Even more puzzling is why the White House would not have taken a victory in hand that would have let the president extol his negotiating skills and crow about delivering for seniors.

Instead, they unveiled an executive order on a weekend that drew little coverage and is far harder for people to grasp than industry-subsidized cost relief for consumers."

Fuckin' clown shoe admin!

Trump usually fails to talk about things that could help him and almost never fails to talk about things that don't. He's a roving messaging catastrophe bent on his own self destruction.

As a senior, Trump's unilateral defunding of Social Security and of Medicare is far, far more important. If he gets re-elected he claims he will make the defunding permanent.

Call your local pharmacy and ask for Trump's drug price cap discount. Just for the LOLs. Record and upload to youtube for entertainment.
Drug prices are a clusterfvck now, but you just wait till Trump SCOTUS overturns the ACA.

Just demonstrated how totally corrupt that fucking bastard is (Trump, if your asking).
This is the one thing he has 'said' he wanted to accomplish that I actually not only agree with, but support.

Yea, I'm fucking stupid, that was not ever his goal. Just another way to shake the rich down and screw the other 99.9%

Trump tried something similar with the TikTok deal, wanting participants to deposit money in the US Treasury as part of the deal. Apparently, he was surprised when told that would be illegal.

So apparently instead he is getting them to donate money to something to fund ‘patriotic education’. I imagine we all know what that will mean.

Lol .... 100 dollar "Trump cards" ... WTF are seniors going to get for that. $100… That’s about 1/4 of a bottle of Patanol drops. Fuck! ...The list price for ENBREL is $1,389.24 per weekly 50 mg dose. Gee thanks Donald you criminal dope. This clown show we call the Trump grifter/scamer ring trying real hard to bribe/buy votes just before the election. Billions to farmers. Billions to PR. 100 dollar drug vouchers.

I’d been wondering why Trump has been saying for weeks that the pharma companies were putting out ads that were mean to him since I’d seen nothing of the sort. Makes sense now. Trump’s voters will, no doubt, uphold him in his ‘no more negotiating since you turned down my bribe idea’

Lol ..."patriotic education" .... Re-education camps: the tried and true Soviet/Chinese model for instilling patriotism.

Paraphrasing from 1984:

"“He gazed up at the enormous face and tiny hands. Four years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the straw-colored combover hairpiece. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast! Two Bic Mac and Diet Coke-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.”
