Was he the one who was expected to give a hearty endorsement to one of the new drugs?

Mediaite is the source. Those who frequent Mediaite are going to be royally disappointed that the Health Emergency is not President Trump.

Which is a shame. I hope he is OK.

That said, the purpose of the press meeting was very important and it will be overshadowed by this guy dropping.

Getting the drug companies to make the GLP-1 drugs more affordable for Medicare/Medicaid patients will end up saving billions in healthcare costs in the next few years. The long term impact will be significant in terms of cardiac and ortho savings. Diabetes should be knocked down to manageable levels.

As Joe Biden would have said at one point,….this is a big [deleted] deal.

I’ve seen that happen on parade grounds. This looked a bit more concerning as he had more of a blank look on his face. The guys dropping during parades tended to “stumble” a bit as they knew they were going down.
