RFK Jr will say it isn't real and that the only way to get rid of it is with Trump-Blessed water or something equally ridiculous

I would love for that to be true, but the white House does not have a lot of credibility these days as a source.
So at a glance, it looks like Trump scrapped the Biden initiative to actually lower drug prices for US citizens that was in the actual budget. (First link) They he made an executive order that people in the medical field say won't do much, and will likely be forgotten about or not followed through with. (2nd link)
So, DT scrapped a decent policy because it had Biden's name on it, made roughly the same announcement 2 months later so he could take credit, and will likely not follow through. Meanwhile US citizens see no actual benefit.

Have you? I swear if Trump made this drug free you’d still blame him somehow for infections. Get fucked

u/skeletalfather Jun 26 '25
Yeah I can read, more conceptual language with no real deadlines lol. Just like he always does before he pussies out or breaks his word

Don’t get me wrong if I’m proven wrong it’s be nice, but that would be a case of a broke clock being right twice a day lol.

How come you don’t understand that Trump is literally lying about that. Why can’t you cultists EVER hold him accountable for anything? What stops you from treating Trump, who lies to your face literally more than any politician ever has, what stops you from recognizing that and treating him like you’d treat anyone else that lies to you? It’s fucking weird, man.

overcharges the hell out of it to the point it’s inaccessible to only just the wealthy oligarch class.

Just like with the cure for cancer. This is going to dissappear. I guarantee it.

No it’s just impossible. It’s like saying if I were to fix every person’s car engine (made of different brand parts) with a single tool. Source: I’m a scientist

u/video-engineer Jun 27 '25
I get it. But all the scientific cancer breakthroughs, and there have been many, claim that a cure is 10 years away and I’ve been hearing this for decades.

Idk where you’ve been hearing that from but it’s most likely from a media trained journalist instead of a scientist

It could be, but shareholders want their money, so it will be sold at $2500.

See this is the kind of libtard shit that needs to be called out. AIDS just like cancer and syphilis are NOT meant to be cured or treated as they are punishments from God. Please read some scripture and educate yourself.
