Well, first off, you know, if he's genuine and sincere about wanting to lower pharmaceutical drug prices, obviously I commend him. You're absolutely right in that he wouldn't be able to do this unilaterally. He would need Congress to act. I think one of the Republican lawmakers in Congress who are bribed, bought by the pharmaceutical industry.
And they essentially said immediately after Trump on, I believe it was on May 11th, when he had hinted that he was going to sign this executive order, you heard from Republican lawmakers who essentially said, no, this is dead on arrival. We're not going to include this in our budget bill. There's no way we're going to do it. Even though

Negotiating for lower pharmaceutical drug prices or implementing a policy, the most favored nation policy that would cap pharmaceutical drug prices in America to that of the country that's paying the least amount, that would save the most amount of money in taxpayer money when it comes to our Medicare system.

The so-called fiscal hawks who wanted to torpedo Trump's agenda didn't propose that. And I wonder why, why aren't you proposing for the Medicare system to be able to big pharma money?

Yeah. I mean, Bernie's back. And what I mean by that is he's realized that you can't really play nice with the Democratic establishment and expect to get your policy priorities passed, expect them to help you out in whatever your agenda might be. And You know, 2015, 2016 Bernie, when he was running in the 2016 race, was a little different from 2020 Bernie.

And what I mean by that is as soon as the Democratic establishment saw an economic populace like Bernie Sanders gain the kind of momentum he did, they cynically used identity politics to crush him. Oh, you're not addressing BLM.

I mean, I remember during one of his campaign rallies, two people from BLM just jumped on stage, interrupted the entire event, called him out for allegedly not caring about Black bodies or Black lives. And it was just utter, ridiculous, cynical use of identity politics to crush someone. And in the end, I mean, what did the party get? In the end, Trump got elected in 2016, of course.

So I think by the time you get to 2024, People were just done with Democrats because they're sick.
