‘This is my most important and impactful post’

On Sunday evening local time, US President Trump announced on the social platform Truth Social that he will sign an executive order at the White House tomorrow morning at 9am (21:00 Beijing time on Monday). Prescription drugs and drug prices will almost immediately decrease by 30% to 80%, and the United States will purchase drugs at the lowest prices in the world.

Trump said: For many years, the world has been puzzled: why are prescription drugs and medications priced much higher in the United States than in other countries? Sometimes, the same drug, produced by the same pharmaceutical company in the same laboratory or factory, can be sold for five to ten times more in the United States than in other countries! This question is always difficult to explain and awkward, because ultimately, there is no reasonable and legitimate answer. For many years, pharmaceutical companies have consistently stated that 'research and development costs are high', and all of these costs, for no reason, have to be borne solely by 'the United States, the scapegoat'. Although campaign donations are powerful, this approach is not feasible for me and the Republican Party. We will do the right thing - something that Democrats have been claiming to do for years but haven't actually achieved.

Therefore, I am pleased to announce that tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock, I will be signing one of the most significant executive orders in the history of our country at the White House. The prices of prescription drugs and pharmaceuticals will be significantly reduced, almost immediately by 30% to 80%. At the same time, drug prices in other countries around the world will rise to achieve price balance. For the first time in many years, we will strive for true fairness for the United States!

I will also implement the most favored nation pricing policy, which means that the United States will enjoy the same price treatment as the world's lowest drug pricing country. Our country will no longer be taken advantage of, and people's medical expenses will also decrease significantly at an unprecedented rate. Moreover, this policy can save the United States trillions of dollars.

Thank you all for your attention to this matter. Make America great again.

A few hours ago, Trump deliberately posted a teaser on social media, saying, "My next post will be one of the most important and influential I have ever posted. Stay tuned
