RFK Jr. Dunks on AOC, Bernie Sanders: Trump Standing Up to ‘Oligarchs’ with Pharmaceuticals Executive Order—
“There has never been a president more willing to stand up to the oligarchs” than President Donald Trump, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said during Monday morning’s press conference, where Trump signed an executive order to reduce the cost of prescription medications.
Calling it an “extraordinary day,” Kennedy said lowering the cost of prescription drugs is something every major Democrat party leader has promised to do, to no avail.
“This was the fulcrum of Bernie Sanders’ runs for presidency, that he was going to eliminate this discrepancy between Europe and the United States. As it turns out, none of them were doing it. It’s one of these promises that politicians make to their constituents, knowing that they’ll never have to do it,” Kennedy observed, noting that they never do it, in part, because “Congress is controlled in so many ways by the pharmaceutical industry.”
