"Trump has dressed up yet another corporate giveaway as a boon to patients," said one watchdog. "Real drug price reform doesn’t look like a website."

    Everything about the Trump regime is either a grift and/or straight-up fascism. Like literally every single thing

    Trump keeps naming things after himself. Obama didn’t call it ObamaCare, it was a reporter years before and Obama avoided the name even correcting reporters for a while. He didn’t admit until 2012, 5 years later, that he liked the name.

    On the other hand Trump forced his name onto the Kennedy center, this BS healthcare plan, “Trump Accounts” (giving money to new parents), the Gold Card visa program that’s probably not even a visa program, his institute of peace, “Trump-class” battleships, and probably more.

    History rewarded Obama. Trump will plaster his name on anything because he’s afraid of being forgotten. How weak.

    TrumpRx is just GoodRx with trump brand. I’m not exaggerating. It is the same BIN and PCN. GoodRx is even advertising it on their site.

    Edit: here’s TrumpRx and GoodRx so you can compare:

    Only the BIN and PCN matters for pharmacists.

    It’s got his name/brand on it. Of course it’s a grift. Is anyone seriously stupid enough to be blind to that anymore? It’s basically all he does, apart from crying about getting his feelings hurt and being a willfully ignorant dickhead. It’s incredible that we are even talking about this.

    It’s sad that the GOP will do anything to avoid improving US healthcare for their constituents.

      My wife is taking a college course on different healthcare systems around the world and literally every single one is a vast improvement over what we have in the US. Obviously Canada and UK are better, but Japan? New Zealand? Singapore? Yep, yep, and holy shit yep. There’s truly just not a developed country with a worse system. We pay way more for (usually) way worse care. And I think most of us are too brainwashed to ever believe that we deserve anything significantly better. A combination of “what’s the catch” and inexplicable shame (or I guess pride) for accepting help that’s for people who need it more.

        I experienced the Singapore system first hand. They apologized for charging me around $30 usd for an urgent care visit that was walking distance from the apt complex and 30ft away from the pharmacy that charged me $5 for Rx sinus medicine.

        My partner at the time had told me I didn’t need to buy “travelers insurance” for this trip.

        That’s when I figured out the us healthcare system was a giant scam.

    I wish we could just teleport all the losers who support this PDF file to a future where trump gets what he wants. And honestly just leave them there.
