DRUGS: “We’re the largest purchaser of prescription drugs by far in the world and I instituted what we call a favored nations clause, where we will pay the same price as the nation that pays the lowest price in the world. In addition to that, I instituted a rebate clause, where we get the rebates instead of the middlemen.

These are the richest people. I don’t know who the hell they are, but the middlemen are — they’re very rich and they’re not liking me too much, and you’re going to see a lot of bad ads from Big Pharma, they’ve already started. Just remember, every time you see one of those ads, that means your drug prices are coming way down.”
