“Always nice when the Republican front runner sides with the Democrats”

Actually it’s refreshing in a situation like this when they are right. Why would medicare NOT negotiate prices?

” Why would medicare NOT negotiate prices?”

Exactly. We pay more for drugs than any other nation. If the drug companies want the government/medicare business, they need to negotiate.

When this issue came before congress in 2007, several conservatives voted for it, including Ron Paul, Steven LaTourette, Walter Jones, Steve Chabot. The rest were getting big $$ donations from the drug companies. This should have been in Bush’s Part D drug plan, but was left out to keep the drug Companies happy.

Trump is right.
