Thank you.
Now, take TWO of these and don't call any of us, in the morning, or, ever, gaggy.

President Donald Trump on Monday announced more than 600 generic medications are being added to the government's discounted-drug website TrumpRx, dramatically increasing offerings from one of the Republican administration's key initiatives to help Americans struggling with high costs.
The beefed-up website is the Trump administration's answer to criticism from Democrats who have called TrumpRx performative and noted that many of the brand-name drugs it has featured are cheaper with insurance or have lower-cost generic versions sold elsewhere.
It also marks an effort to respond to a top voter concern for November's midterm elections: affordability. Health costs are a worry for many Americans, an issue compounded by the Republican-led Congress' recent cuts to Medicaid and the expiration of enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies this year that sent some people's premiums skyrocketing.
The expansion is made possible by partnerships with other online pharmacies, including Amazon Pharmacy, GoodRx and billionaire investor Mark Cuban's Cost Plus Drugs, Trump said at an event at the White House.
"This has been the greatest breakthrough in lowering health care costs in modern history, but we're just sort of getting started," Trump said, calling TrumpRx the "hottest thing in medicine."
TrumpRx is not a platform for buying medications. Instead, it's set up as a facilitator, pointing Americans to drugmakers' direct-to-consumer websites, where they can make purchases. It also provides coupons to use at pharmacies. ***
Trump said Monday's additions increase the site's offerings by nearly seven times. He said TrumpRx has been visited more than 10 million times since its launch.
Even with generics added, experts said the potential savings heavily depend on a patient's situation. For the vast majority of Americans who have health insurance, using that coverage to pay for medications is still usually a better deal than paying cash through TrumpRx,***

For brand-name drugs, the law prohibiting their reimportation should be abolished.
Does anyone have the list?
“It also provides coupons to use at pharmacies.” Coupons are good.
You can’t use Trump RX if you have Medicare part D.
“You can’t use Trump RX if you have Medicare part D.”
Anyone can use Trump RX.
Sorry, science has not found a cure for Trump Deification Syndrome (TDS)*

Thank you.

In the very same post where you copied the TrumpRx bottle. Proving once again that irony is lost on the insipid.
We see where the insipid is, gaggy.
With your sorry attempts at comebacks.
Copied the TrumpRx bottle??? From you?
Give it up.
Not true.
I have part D and still save money with Trump Rx.
LOL!!!
Perfect.
I’m just going by what their website says.
“”In the very same post where you copied the TrumpRx bottle. Proving once again that irony is lost on the insipid.””

And the real, ultimate irony... is that the truly insipid (that would be you, btw)... fail to see the irony in their own insipidness while pointing elsewhere.
It’s unnecessary.
The drug companies are already legally forced to give U.S. customers Most Favored Nation pricing - prices as low as the lowest they offer others. My drug prices have been going down drastically all year.
I don’t see that anywhere on their website.
Ask your democrat acquaintances (If you have any left) or family members if they are aware of PDJT accomplishing what decades of democrat demagogues have called for via government price controls.
President Trump is America’s second Indispensable Man.
Unfortunately, that is incorrect. The MFN pricing is not the law of the land. The current pricing within the parameters of MFN is voluntary. The effort to legally bind pharma companies to MFN pricing is stalled. In addition, the law banning the reimportation of drugs is still in effect. See: FFDCA Section 801(d)(1)
Let me know when they have something useful on the list such as ELIQUIS.
