It seems like you want to be angry at Trump no matter what he does without actually understanding what the actual problem is and when someone asks you to explain you treat them with hostility. So here is what is dangerous about Trumps Pharma tariffs (so you can actually articulate your rage). The order proposes that the US be given Most Favoured Nation (MFN) status – meaning drug companies would be asked to match the lowest price for a drug abroad when selling to US consumers. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/trumps-order-on-us-drug-prices-whats-in-it-and-will-it-work/ar-AA1EDZ1S The thorn in that rose is that Big Pharma will simply raise their prices abroad to compensate for the loss of profit in America - essentially f^cking over every other nation on earth who will now have to pay more for life saving drugs, that includes nations who are so poor that drugs are heavily subsidized just so people don't die in the thousands. There will now epidemics because there will be no one who can afford basic medicine. In the end Covid19 may end up being a holiday compared to what we might yet see.

Your condescension is what I'd expect from a MAGAt. The problem I have with this is that it is utter showmanship horseshit. Take your sanctimony off to someone else (please interpret that as the euphemism it is).

Wow if you actually put down the pipe you would realize I was helping you and no, I'm not a Trump supporter. I tried to help you by giving you an actual argument against Trumps foolish executive order instead of your 'f^ck you' copy/paste replies. I guess it's easier to be angry at everyone who you don't like rather than actually express what makes you angry.
