President Trump says he’s going to be announcing major tariffs on pharmaceuticals: “But we’re gonna tariff our pharmaceuticals. And once we do that, they’re gonna come rushing back into our country because we’re the big market. The advantage we have over everybody is that we are the big market.... So we’re gonna be announcing very shortly a major tariff on pharmaceuticals. And when you, and when they hear that they will leave China, they will leave other places because they have to sell. Most of their product is sold here.”show more

I guess there is no part of the economy Trump doesn’t want to destroy.

What a scumbag piece of shit. Pathetic that he was voted back in.

There are big supply chain implications, it is not something we can onshore tomorrow.

THE TARIFF MAN. When someone figures out what he's doing, please let me know. Thanks!

“We are going to be announcing a huge new invention! It will be round, more round than anyone’s ever seen before. We’re going to call it the wheel!”

In other words “literally everything, even your life saving medication, is about to get astronomically expensive”. He’s definitely destroying America as planned by Putin.

There is legitimate grounds for the Republican Senators to impeach him, because JD Vance is a free market guy

All of the generic meds I take are made overseas. ALL OF THEM. They have already gone up $30 a month since he took office. I am disabled and now likely screwed. Fuck him.

Great I can’t wait to pay even more for prescriptions. Thx republicans

I wish he’d expand his vocabulary past “Tariff”

He’s delusional.

Nearly half of all generic meds in the US come from India. Generic drugs imported from countries like India make up 9 out of 10 prescriptions. Trump's Tariffs on these drugs will hurt Americans.

To summarize, expect your $10 Metformin to cost $200.

Woah, wait a minute. If there's one thing we all learned during Covid was that China made all our drugs. Literally all of them, over the counter and on shelf. I'm old enough to remember a certain presser in WH room where Trump was surprised himself and promised to fix this. Then Biden admin did nothing to address this. But this has me concerned. If we're doing this on top of China tariffs, I don't see an ending to this saga for many months. Last time the trade war between Trump and Xi lasted over a year and it really hurt the farmers. This? Whole new ball game. And please would someone fire that idiot Peter Navarro?

jesus christ.

This is going to directly kill Americans.

Jesus Christ help us

The VP told me this was about pain that limousine liberals would absorb. But lots of fixed income people use medicine

Well US was fun while it lasted

Every benefit package from employers is about to drop their pharmaceutical plans because it's going to be too costly.

Yeah, not how any of this works. What an idiot.

Delusional orange fat fuck.

Will it ever end?

Given how overpriced meds already are in the US, following through would be very detrimental politically. The stories about people dying because of their inability to afford insulin or some essential drug will become much more common and generate even more outrage. Awful PR.

yeah ppl will die I'm sorry

RIP those who don't have insurance.

Holy shit that's dumb.

Putins orders

He’s the one Elon should be insulting

He's not wrong. All you pill addicted people take note.

He is absolutely right. US has a huge market. I repeat HUGE.

He’s an idiot

Someone told him pharmaceuticals were trading ok today and he said “I’ll fix that!”.

Oh my, the man is insane. Every day he descends into greater madness.
