speaking of drugs


And that is why Trump took action. Price is and will go down.

He said it is cheap as water already.

The users of the drug say otherwise.

Reality "insulin still retails for roughly $300 a vial. Most patients with diabetes need two to three vials per month, and some can require much more.

Quote:
Trump also insisted during Tuesday’s debate that he had implemented a “most-favored nations” policy that would radically lower drug prices, but that plan still hasn’t been implemented. He suggested, too, that he was letting states import drugs from Canada, but it could be months or even years before any state is ready to submit a plan to do so, under rules that were only released last week.

Trump also didn’t mention the long list of drug pricing failures he has racked up over the last four years: His idea to require drug makers include their drug prices in TV ads was struck down in court, and his administration has repeatedly flip-flopped on his idea to eliminate the discounts negotiated between drug prices and middlemen.

If Trump has the standard quick recovery from COVID-19, with few to no symptoms, and none serious, I believe it will help him in the election, compared to if he never contacted COVID-19. If he gets sick and is out of action for even a few days, I think it will hurt his re-election chances. Him 'beating' COVID-19, although it should mean nothing, I think will help him electorally....

Let me preface this with: I have no friggin idea how this will affect the election.

But anything that makes the virus the number one story on the news is NOT good for Donny.

His campaign wants to talk about the economy (oops - crappy jobs report this morning), "law and order" (whatever that means coming from this criminal administration), basically ANYTHING but the virus.

He is showing "mild" symptoms. So it's not like he can responsibly resume campaign stops within the next two weeks. And people are already voting...

they were convinced god (always lower case for me) would protect them and Trump from the virus

I agree there. Will make him seem more like the common man out there. Chances are he takes it easy over the weekend and on light schedule next, then back to normal.

Dumb question.... Voting has already started..... let's say Trump passes on due to this infection. Are all Trump votes automatically now just "replacement Republican" votes? As you technically are not voting for Trump, but a slate of electors?

That is one huge problem with early voting. It might depend on the state.
