“I will be instituting a MOST FAVORED NATION’S POLICY whereby the United States will pay the same price as the Nation that pays the lowest price anywhere in the World.”

“Prescription Drug and Pharmaceutical prices will be REDUCED, almost immediately, by 30% to 80%.”

“They will rise throughout the World in order to equalize and, for the first time in many years, bring FAIRNESS TO AMERICA!”

      Dems finally support prosecuting an ex-president, but only so they don’t have to do anything in office. “See, Trump was doing it all illegally! Now that law and order have been restored, the president will revert to not being able to effect drug prices.”

          They’ll pack the Court just so they can nominate Justices to restrain their power and not have to do anything else.

              I think they’re defined by procedure and using it as a shield to avoid doing work.

              But if they have to, they’ll use procedure to do a small amount of work if it means avoiding more work later.

              Like when they impeached Trump. A small amount of procedural work to shut up their base so they didn’t have to do anything else.
