TRUMP CALLS OUT BIG PHARMA, WANTS ANSWERS FOR ‘UNEXPLAINED AND ALARMING GROWTH’ IN CHRONIC ILLNESSES

The CDC has confirmed that over 40 percent of children and adolescents have a chronic illness. While the British Medical Journal linked this occurrence to children who survive historically lethal viruses, President Trump is seeking more direct answers.

In a recent address, he specifically questioned the “unexplained and alarming growth in the prevalence of chronic illnesses and health problems, especially in children.”

Agenda47: Addressing Rise of Chronic Childhood Illnesses

He noted the rise in various illnesses and discussed concerns regarding the costs of treating them instead of finding the true causes and focusing on prevention.

President Trump then stated, “Too often, our public health establishment is too close to Big Pharma—they make a lot of money, Big Pharma—big corporations, and other special interests, and does not want to ask the tough questions about what is happening to our children’s health.”

Americans have taken note of this. During the 2020 pandemic, the Covid-19 vaccine production was fast-tracked by the Trump administration, and skepticism regarding the safety and efficacy of these shots has continued to divide medical professionals and their patients.

In addition, sources revealing the connection between health issues and poor diet have been warning Americans about the importance of eating healthy for decades. From the book “Fast Food Nation” by Eric Schlosser to the award-winning documentary Super Size Me by Morgan Spurlock, proper diet has been at the forefront of the health discussion for some years, yet American children have continued to grow sicker over time.

President Trump is now connecting this issue with Big Pharma and also noted, “If Big Pharma defrauds American patients and taxpayers or puts profits above people, they must be investigated and held accountable.”

He then promised, “When I am back in the White House, I will establish a special Presidential Commission of independent minds who are not bought and paid for by Big Pharma, and I will charge them with investigating what is causing the decades-long increase in chronic illnesses.”

President Trump described how a commitment to this cause “is long overdue.”

He called it “a conversation that American families deserve.”

Call us all the names you want to, but you are the one who posted an article that makes Trump look like a hypocritical fool.

But you are too stupid to even know that.

Presumably so does Big Pharma.

Are we to perceive Trump as taking Big Pharma to task on the issue of supposed proliferation of “chronic” childhood illness?

Oh man, please don’t make me go back and find Trump’s quotes about how wonderful and amazing the vaccine was and how everyone should get it. Please don’t make me do that. Lol.

Where have I heard that kind of rhetoric before?

It’s obvious big pharma doesn’t want to solve the problem of childhood illnesses.

It’s just as obvious Trump does.

This dichotomy represents the insurmountable reality faced by Trump’s enemies. Their only option is to distort. This is why they are known as low IQ.

“Trump was and still is in bed with Big Pharma concerning clot shots.“

Not so. He always spoke out against the mandates - that’s all I care about.
As for advocating the vaccines at first - who cares?

You should seek medical advice from your doctor, not your President.

You mean when Trump kept saying over and over that it’s better to use treatments like hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin, and that vaccines are not needed when treatments are available?

When he repeated it again and again?

So what you are saying is that I should not trust Trump when it comes to his opinion on vaccines and Big Pharma.

Got it.

I’ll add this to the long list of other things I don’t trust Trump about.

The big fat guy is interested in health issues.

That’s rich.

I will stick to the battalion of medical professional who care for my family.

I see lots of people on the anti-big Pharma bandwagon.

That is…until you are sitting in front of the doctor being told your chances of survival without Big Pharma treatment is zero. Then, all of a sudden you become a fan.

The infusion center was full of such folks.

Here's a link to where Trump bestowed awards on Milley, Birx, and Fauci (and many others) for their work on Operation Warp Speed. You can try to rewrite history all you want. The turth is, Trump is in bed with all the people and companies you claim to despise. He only claims he isn't when he wants your money and your vote. And you lap it up like a dog.

Then why does big pharma want to perpetuate childhood illnesses, and why does Trump want to solve the problem of childhood illnesses?

"why does big pharma want to perpetuate childhood illnesses"

You present this as a fact simply because Donald Trump says it. I'm not prepared to believe that statement as fact. I do not know nearly enough on the topic, and I do not accept a politician's word on something just because I think they should be President.

What I DO know is that Trump got into bed with Big Pharma during Warp Speed, and he pushed the vaccine on America.

You are right-if you cure a disease, there is no more money to be made beyond that cure-but if you treat it for the rest of that person’s life, you have a income stream that lasts and likely increases-every drug has side effects-so another drug is prescribed to deal with them-but that drug has side effects, too so another is prescribed to deal with those, etc, etc-and the price of treatment keeps climbing-never mind what all those chemicals are doing to the person taking them-there needs to be complete honesty regarding drugs and their interactions, and natural or off-label alternatives need to be offered, even when they are cheaper as well-it needs to be about the person, not maxing someone’s income-then let the person decide for themselves what they chose as a treatment...

Neccessary pivot from Trump.

It has nothing to do with Trump. Only an idiot seeks medical advice from a President. I know I didn’t - I never got the clot shot.

What I do look to a President for is protecting my Constitutional rights - and he never mandated those vaccines - I appreciate that.

His administration did add Covid19 to the PREP act. I never liked the PREP act, which limits Big Pharma liability. However, it is a fact that without limiting liability, vaccine development would grind to a stop, because it would not be worth the risk. He was following a long precedent, and any President would have done the same under the circumstances.

If you know something concrete about Trump, then why are you only able to use metaphor in stating it?

Why are you unable to provide substance?

Trump has more nerve than Dick Tracy campaigning on this pledge after turning the nation over to Fauci. What a smoke screen.

He fast tracked approval of mRNA injections that for years couldn’t get approval for a single purpose. The technology failed miserably as a therapeutic application. But he twisted arms to get it approved despite the evidence that it had questionable benefits and safety.

Now that the side effects and lack of efficacy of MRNA is evident he’s working to divert attention away from his “one of the greatest achievements of mankind” vaccines and rebrand himself as our protector from big pharma. He should be issuing groveling apologies for allowing us to be coerced into the jabs and made into lab experiments; for the injuries and death from it and for using enormous tax payer money to pay for it. He got played and he needs to fess up to it, not create diversions.
