Correct me if I am wrong, but when Trump was in office, one of his most passionate causes was getting drug prices lowered.
Even on this, Democrats tried to fight him, but now they are trying to push through their own legislation.
Ironically, they can’t even get their entire party behind the legislation, and Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) is having a fit over it.
Bernie Is Upset
Sanders, of course, could not just express his disappointment with the Dems that voted against the legislation.
He also felt the need to take yet another shot at Republicans.
After the vote came through, Sanders sent out this tweet…
I'm very disappointed in the vote today on prescription drugs by the House Energy and Commerce Committee.
I get that the pharmaceutical industry owns the Republican Party and that no Republican voted for this bill, but there is no excuse for every Democrat not supporting it. https://t.co/O5JutBDrt6

The Dems that voted against the bill, Reps. Kurt Schrader (D-OR), Scott Peters (D-CA), and Kathleen Rice’s (D-N.Y.), did so because they believed the bill would handicap the innovation of drug companies.
Dems, of course, are going to find a workaround, as usual.
Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Frank Pallone Jr. (D-N.J.) vowed to add the legislation to the massive $3.5 trillion spending package that Dems want to ram through via reconciliation.
Sanders, on that note, stated, “The good news is that the full Congress must and will do far better.
“At a time when the drug companies are charging us by far the highest prices in the world, Congress must demand that Medicare negotiate prices with this extremely greedy and powerful industry.”

A true communist CCP CHINA democratics bastard f Bernie Sanders in the bunghole with a sledgehammer dildo
Pretty funny. When Trump tried to get the prices down, all you democrats worked against him. Seems your party talks from both sides of the mouth or like the native Americans would say “forked tongue”
The Demonrats think the little good they throw at American people will make up for all the evil they do and are!!
Seems like they are talking out of their anuses instead. These people are sick. And drug prices are going up every couple months.
As the hag pelosi referred to at one point “crumbs”. Sure, crumbs nancy. You don’t know what the hell a crumb is you dirtbag twat. bernie is such a hyporcrite. Has he EVER lived under communism? The old sob doesn’t have a clue if he never lived it and we know he hasn’t. He wouldn’t lower himself with the life style he is accustomed to.
The POS Bernie has never had a job except setting in Washington taking out tax money he has never held a true job he has never applied and gotten a job by his self, a friend or his dad would get him a job and he would leave after a couple weeks.
We will start seeing in-house fighting until they destroy themselves
The whole SWAMP needs to go and take Sanders bf Fucci with you! Try Afghanistan to live there with the murders! Maybe they will get you first!
