Trump lowers insulin prices via EO, so Biden rescinds Trump's EO, and prices go back up...

*Sometime Later*

Biden re-does the insulin price EO, but covers a few more people.

I expect this is going to be the same thing. A new EO will be made coving the rest that Biden's didn't.

This is a Bipartisan issue.

reply

Yup, I recently posted about it on the Trump board.

The Biden regime paused Trump’s EO twice before finally cancelling it and both times they took credit for Trump’s CAP.

Recently, they (uniparty) tried to pass it again but Trump blocked them; I would have done the same and signed it after taking office.

reply

Nonsense, commie.

Trump only covered some insulin on Plan D. Biden covered ALL insulin on Plan B and D.

Anyway, you should be against socialized medicine, remember?

reply

Your KFF article is propaganda and MisInfo ... as usual.

Biden didn't cover anything … His plans on insulin cost was going to be the same as Obama (extremely expensive) until Trump capped it.

Trumps EO capped it @$35.00 for some plans and made it free for other plans.

Trump is on both videos announcing it in May of 2020.

The Biden regime paused Trump’s EO on Insulin cost twice before finally cancelling it so they can take credit for Trump's insulin CAP.

Stop conflating everything with socialism; that insulin has nothing to do with it.

The Sun and The Daily Mail. so, those definitely aren't the main stream media. because if they were, you wouldn't be able to trust them. Still, insulin's gonna bomb in price now (after eggs). so, that's cool. and shorter clips are better because reliable popular (msm) organisations (which you've quoted) can't take it out of context

If you're reading this in the future, it was this

vs this

plus this

https://ibb.co/1K4qPzs (which definitely isn't the main stream media, because if it was, you couldn't trust it)

this

https://ibb.co/Nn4sVJy won because of this https://ibb.co/1K4qPzs and this https://ibb.co/LhYv1KS (yes, he was real)

STILL. Trump is on. So it's going to be super. right? If you're reading this in 12 months time, I'm sure it's absolutely fine. Again for future people, it was fortunate that right after the election, Elon "sieg heil" Musk invented a machine that could pick fruit.

reply

If that is what the media are reporting, I believe you. To anyone reading this in a years time, if your cost hasn't skyrocketted -- well, that was worth it. and you even got a free photo sent through the post to put on the mantlepiece. And who knew that once the FDA got disbanded due to 50% of additives needing to be transgender, they would get permission to put that in eggs. You'll never need to eat another twinkie again in your life

Apparently cancer research is doing well, too. and Elon did a Taylor Swift salute. and contrary to popular belief, Trump can spell 'bipartisan'.

reply

You're really good at authoring meaningless word salads.

reply

which was the difficult word? "is"? tbh, it was for other peoples benefit. (for anyone reading this in 5 years time. yeah....this is what it was like)

here you are.

"Look, having nuclear-my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart -you know, if you're a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world-it's true!-but when you're a conservative Republican they try-oh, do they do a number-that's why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune-you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we're a little disadvantaged-but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me it would have been so easy, and it's not as important as these lives are (nuclear is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right-who would have thought?), but when you look at what's going on with the four prisoners-now it used to be three, now it's four-but when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven't figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it's gonna take them about another 150 years-but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us."

reply

You're wrong. See my comment below with links to reality.

But, why are you advocating socialized medicine, commie?

reply

Plenty of Trumpites are clueless about insulin prices.

Trump lowered SOME insulin prices temporarily for ONLY Medicare Part D.

Biden lowered ALL insulin prices for BOTH Medicare Parts B and D.

Biden's was better since it covered millions and was permanent.

This chart compares both:

“But hey, no more trans athletes!” according to the rubes.

Somehow even on Insulin prices I fail to see the difference between Republicans and Democrats.

https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/cost-of-insulin-by-country

Price of Insulin in western Europe is between $5 and $15, in the US it's over $30, no matter which party is in government.

reply

The main difference is that if it's Trump, (they) get to say "those bastard Democrats". and that matters.

General comment. To repeat something I've said a few times (or it could have been just once, who fu7kin knows). I have no idea why anyone would listen to any politicians. ever. I personally only listen to the ones who sell things made in China. but. if people want to listen to politicians, you (they) do you (they). Just don't expect them to spell the name of Colombia right
