Trump says he cut drug prices "400, 500, 600, 700, 800%," which is not mathematically possible

[Nuthin' Fancy]

Remember when Trump said the whole world is laughing at us? He's actually referring to the periods he's been president.

Or maybe he is just being a politician to the hoi polloi like every other politician out there?

I really don't even listen to Trump much anymore. He has never been a good public speaker except when he is just winging it improvising before the mike.

Just the other day I caught part of his visit to a truck factory and right away, I recognized towards the end the same patter he used in every campaign rally. Trump has never been the technical "facts and figures" kind of guy.

Sometimes I think her deliberately acts dumb, slow or stupid just so that whoever he is talking to underestimates him.

Or maybe he acts dumb because dumb people like it. They feel he's one of them.

Trump once again demonstrates his inability to do elementary school math. It is not possible to reduce something by more than 100%. You would think someone in his inner circle would tell him to stop repeating this nonsense.

Jokes on you a 500% reduction sounds better. Trump has a 500% reduction in his approval rate.

Trump did..................

It will probably always be a mystery how his Flat Earther Trumpster base has not figured out how many times he's insulted them.

 

[wamose]

It would depend on what number you use as the basis. If you use the after cut number, you can get higher than 100%.

 

[ColonelAngus]

Yes he is wrong.

Does not mean I would rather have Kamala Harris as President.

Or grifted them.

Whatever he is doing, it works on people like you.

I have yet to see any meds that have cost me less than during Biden.

I have never liked that spoiled brat.

I have never liked that spoiled brat.

I've hated him since 1985.
Of course, Trump has been a lying grifter, for longer than that.

He was against Reagan during his term, which is when I first saw him.

Trump bought Mar A Lago.
The lies and frivolous lawsuits, were almost immediate.

A LOT of NY people visit Florida , then even more came out about how scummy Trump is.
If it wasn't for Mark Burnett going that scumbag a TV show, Trump's gullible cult wouldn't even exist.

Are you saying trump doesn’t exaggerate?

 

[Care4all]

Trump has operated dozens of million dollar corporations, so I think it silly to believe the guy doesn't know basic math! This is likely more a case of Trump just speaking metaphorical campaign talk, partly because he might think this is more along the lines that many people understand.

Obviously, you cannot cut the cost of something by 800% without it becoming free and your getting a refund or payment for using it! My guess is that when he says prices cut by 800%, what he is intending to relate is that costs have been cut to 1/8th their former cost.

Trump is a bit of a carnival man, not that I think he is stupid or intending to actually deceive, he just has a tendency to relate stories and put things in dramatic big tent ways!

The biggest ever! Everything is biggest, best, longest ever.

Trump filed bankruptcy for the Trump Organization 6 times between 1991 and 2014....



He is hardly the successful business man that you claim.

He lost $1.8 billion in the money he was loaned by banks for his businesses.

so you are saying your side lies....just not as much...they still lie otto and you follow without question....

OK, I will give you that one. I believe that makes the score about 7-5984 in Trump's favor. Kamala would be about 12000 or so in the hole.
