Bernie Sanders Says, 'Trump Just Announced He's Reduced Drug Prices By 85%,' Dares You To Go To The Pharmacy And 'Tell Them Trump Sent You' (Benzinga)

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) took a jab at President Donald Trump on social media, mocking a recent claim and executive order Trump made about slashing drug prices.

“Good news: Donald Trump, who never lies, just announced he alone has reduced drug prices by 85%,” Sanders posted on X on May 20. “Quick. Go to your pharmacy. Demand an 85% reduction on your drug prices. Tell them Trump sent you.”

He also added, “If that doesn't work, tell him to support the bill I’m introducing that’ll do it.”

Trump confuses the name of his doctor when bragging about taking a cognitive test

Former President Donald Trump on Saturday confused the name of his former White House physician just moments after he said President Joe Biden should take a cognitive test.

The mix-up happened as Trump bragged that he had "aced" a cognitive test. Trump also criticized Biden, saying, "I think he should take a cognitive test like I did."

"I took a cognitive test, and I aced it. Doc Ronny — Doc Ronny Johnson," Trump said, confusing the name of his White House physician, Dr. Ronny Jackson, now a member of the House. "Does everyone know Ronny Johnson, congressman from Texas? He was the White House doctor.”

Trump continued, bragging about having gotten "every question right" on the cognitive test Jackson administered, apparently unaware that he had fumbled his name.


Yeah THIS cognitive test.

In an hour or two.
I'll OP this. F that bozo.
