[RedState] President Donald Trump, Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz, and Airbnb co-founder and Chief Design Officer of the United States Joe Gebbia have launched the Trump administration's new direct-to-consumer website for prescription drugs: TrumpRX.gov.
At the Thursday launch, Trump opened by saying.
We're here this evening to celebrate the launch of one of the most transformative healthcare initiatives of all time. There's never been anything like it. Starting tonight, dozens of the most commonly used prescription drugs will be available at dramatic discounts for all consumers throughout a new website, it's called, "Trump RX dot gov," that's "TrumpRX.gov."
For years, politicians from both parties have promised to bring down prescription drug prices and make healthcare more affordable. But they all failed. It was all words, as usual. They failed, and they failed badly. They tried doing this. some of them, most of them didn't even try, because they never really had a shot at it. But I'm actually getting it done. And It is done, actually.
This launch represents the largest reduction in prescription drug prices in history by many, many times. And it's not even close, you're going to see numbers that you're not going to believe.
Always excited to test drive a new website, I typed in the URL and dived in. As opposed to the "Healthcare.gov" website launch under President Barack Obama, the fact that the "TrumpRX.gov" page actually loaded is already a huge win. |
