President Trump Makes Cryptic Remark at Ohio Speech: “I Have a Lot of Enemies…This May Be the Last Time You’ll See Me for a While”

President Trump spoke to workers at a Whirlpool factory in Clyde, Ohio Thursday to tout his efforts to restore America’s manufacturing base. During the speech Trump also spoke about his working to reform prescription drug pricing by the pharmaceutical industry.

While speaking about reducing drug prices by cutting out the middlemen, Trump said he had made a lot of enemies, rich enemies, and that “This might be the last time you’ll see me for awhile.”

And speaking of pharmaceuticals, we instituted four moves — rebates, favored nations, and other things — buying from other nations where they have the product — the same exact pill, identical; made in the same factory — for a fraction — just a small fraction of the cost. 

We buy from other countries, as opposed to buying through this ridiculous quagmire of political scam that we’ve been going through for many years. 

And what I’ve done, in terms of favored nations, if — as an example, Germany has a pill for 10 cents and we have a pill for $2. We institute favored nations on the drug company. We get the pill for the same amount as the lowest pill anywhere in the world. Anywhere in the world. (Applause.) 

And that could drop your price of pharmaceuticals, of drugs — prescription drugs — it could drop your price 50, 60, 70 percent, maybe more than that. 

This is something — now, I have to tell you, I have never seen so many bad commercials about me as in the last three days since I did this. (Laughter.) So, will you remember that when you see this horrible commercial that I’m a “socialist” — I was called a “socialist” for the first time in my entire life. (Laughter.) 

Actually, what I am doing is I’m using socialist countries, who are buying our product for far less than we’re allowed to — I’m saying, “Well, if you’re going to sell it to this country…” — might be socialist — “…for a lower price, then we’re going to get that same price.” So, you know. But I have been called everything in the book. 

And I say — I said, the other day, “Whenever you see a drug company advertising that Donald Trump is a bad guy, remember: Your drug prices must be coming down very big. Very big.” (Applause.) So please remember that. Please remember that, because I don’t want to get all those negative votes, and then Biden wins, and they try — the first month, he’ll say, “I dropped drug prices 78 percent.” 

And he won’t even know what the hell he’s saying. (Laughter and applause.) 

I don’t want to be watching that from some beautiful resort someplace in the world. I could have — oh, I had had such a beautiful life before I did this. But that’s okay because we’re doing a great job and — (applause) — it makes me very happy to see people being properly representative — represented for a change. 

But during the course of the next four years, we will bring our pharmaceutical and medical supply chains home. We’re going to bring them home where they belong. And we’ll end reliance on China, just like we did with the washers and dryers, just like we did with many other things. We’ll be making our product here safely, beautifully, and inexpensively. We’re reasserting American economic independence. And I’ve been doing that from the first day I came into office. 

To this end, a short time ago, I signed the new executive order to ensure that when it comes to essential medicines, we buy American. (Applause.) The executive order will require that U.S. government agencies purchase all essential medicines that we need from American sources. 

The executive order will also sweep away unnecessary regulatory barriers to domestic pharmaceutical production and support advanced manufacturing processes that will keep our drug prices low and allow American companies to compete on the world stage. We’ll be able to compete on the world stage, but we’re now going to have the lowest prices, as opposed to, by far, the highest prices. 

I have people that I know that go to Canada — they go to Canada to buy drugs. To buy prescription drugs, they go there because the price is so much lower than the United States. And yet, it’s made by the same company, often in the same plant. It’s a disgrace. 

And the politicians allowed this to happen for many, many decades. You have people called “middlemen.” I don’t know who the middlemen are. I don’t know. They never say “middlewomen,” so they’re politically not correct. (Laughter.) 

But I’ve heard the term “middlemen” for a long time. They are so wealthy. They are so wealthy. Nobody has any idea who the hell they are or what they do. They make more money than the drug companies. You know, in all fairness, at least the drug companies have to produce a product, and it has to be good product. 

But the middlemen — well, the rebate that I’m doing cuts out the middlemen, and it reduces costs, and the money goes back to the people purchasing the drugs. So I have a lot of enemies out there. This may be the last time you’ll see me for a while. A lot of very, very rich enemies, but they are not happy with what I’m doing. But I figure we have one chance to do it, and no other President is going to do what I do. 

No other President would do a favored nations, a rebate, a buy from other nations at much less cost. Nobody. And there are a lot of unhappy people, and they’re very rich people, and they’re very unhappy.

“Black Lives Matter Wants to Defund Police, Promotes Anti-Semitism and Racism, Doesn’t Believe in Nuclear Family!” – Sen. Kelly Loeffler Refuses to Bow to Cancel Culture Mob!

Trump came along and things have changed because of his willingness to tell the truth, and his unwillingness to step back when he's in the midst of a fight.

Those two simple virtues are a huge part of the reason Trump is successful. It's not because his ideas are so much better. It's because he refuses to yield.

But even if that is a simple virtue, it is an exceedingly rare one. And so, I have found myself despairing even as I watch Trump succeed, because the more he succeeds, the more the enemies extensive machinery is brought out into the open. In other words, the more Trump succeeds, the more I realize how much the Left has at it's disposal.

For instance, I have, frankly, been shocked to watch how the Left has been able to control corporate America, whether it be any one of a number of the Gillette's or sports teams who are absolutely willing to "Get Woke, Go Broke", repeating the insane lies of the left, and holding to their coerced policies, even profits shrink and shrink.

When I see this, I realize, this is going to be a long fight. It is going to go on longer than Trump is in office. And this is why I despair. Because who is going to replace Trump?

We know it's not going to be his stupid daughter. And sadly, it is not going to be Mike Pence. Because even though Mike Pence is a good man, he does not have an iron will.

Enter Senator Kelly Loeffler. This woman owns a WNBA team, and yet, she stands against the NBA corporation, by standing against Black Lives Matter. Amazing. She is absolutely willing to bite the hand that feeds her.

JAIL FAUCI: New Report Compares Turkey COVID Treatment with HCQ vs. USA Without HCQ and the Results Are Crystal Clear

Sky News’ story about “Turkey’s COVID Detectives” by special correspondent Alex Crawford is remarkable. 

It not only covers the track and trace teams in action in Turkey, but also the therapeutic approach, which relies on hydroxychloroquine as a first step to treat symptomatic patients. 

The Turkish approach is at odds with most countries, such as the UK, where symptomatic patients are asked to stay home, wait, until the symptoms essentially become unbearable, and then serious complications and hospitalization become very likely.
Such reporting about early treatment is typically absent from mainstream media coverage, so this coverage needs to be celebrated. 

The pictures are also remarkable. “As soon as a patient has symptoms, they are treated with hydroxychloroquine tablets and/or favipiravir at home. 

Follow-up calls quickly spot if the symptoms worsen, and then they will be admitted to hospital.” 

“Once at the hospital, Dr Yiyit says the treatment is increased and combined with high-flow oxygen treatment, anti-coagulants, steroids, vitamins and more high-dose favipiravir or hydroxychloroquine…” 

“Most of patients recover in five days,” Dr Yiyit insists.” 

The USA has 488 covid deaths per one million in population. 

Turkey has 69 covid deaths per one million in population.

Stormy Monday

Your papers are not in order! Your license is from the wrong state!

"STOP! What is your purpose for being on the road?"

"I'm going to work."

"I see. Show me your papers please."

This afternoon at work the wife was given a letter from her employer that she is supposed to keep in the car in case she was stopped stating that she is an essential employee and allowed to be on the road.

No less than four higher ups checked to make sure she got the letter.

We've reached a special level of weird here.

"Hmm. Your papers...

...are in order. You may proceed."

wow

That's what I wrote on March 19, 2020 - just four and a half months agp - when all the nonsense was starting up. No doubt more than a few people thought I was being reactionary, overly paranoid, but were just too polite and genteel to say so.

Well, turns out I wasn't being paranoid enough. Read the story below.

We now have fucking travel checkpoints setup HERE IN AMERICA. If you are from the wrong places - Alaska, Florida, Georgia, Texas, The Carolinas etc - you will be (self) detained - don't mince words that's exactly what it is - for two weeks or face a $10,000 (you read that right) fine. Of course if you are from the right places - New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut etc - "Your papers are in order. You may proceed".

That's it. You've committed no crime other than being from the wrong state and will be punished for that -- by detention or fine -- for having the chutzpah to travel freely in America.

And just to be sure you're being a good little traveler their new Test and Trace Corps (no kidding!) will be checking in on you by text or phone call. If you do not respond they will come knock on your door to "make sure you are safe."

For all you fuckers who like to say Trump and his cronies are Nazis, Communists, Fascists I might point out this was a tactic very much used by The Nazis and The Communist Bloc nations and the fascists.

So what does that make Mr. De Blasio who has thus decreed this?

New York City sets up quarantine checkpoints as it toughens state travel restrictions

New York City is setting up quarantine checkpoints at “key entry points” along main bridges and tunnels to the city to screen travelers coming from more than 30 states with bad coronavirus outbreaks, Mayor Bill de Blasio said Wednesday. 

“Travelers coming in from those states will be given information about the quarantine, they will be reminded that it is required, not optional,” de Blasio said at a press briefing. “They’ll be reminded that failure to quarantine is a violation of state law and it comes with serious penalties.” The checkpoints will begin Wednesday.

Dr. Ted Long, head of New York City’s Test & Trace Corps, said that a fifth of all new coronavirus cases in New York City are from out-of-state travelers.

The new agency is deploying teams to Penn Station and the Port Authority Bus Terminal starting Thursday. They are checking in on travelers through calls and text messages, “and if we can’t get through to you on the phone, we’ve deployed teams that are now knocking on your door and making sure you’re safe,” Long said.

“We want you to come into New York City, but we need you to safely separate for two weeks when you arrive to keep New York City safe,” he said. 

Long said the city will help those quarantining with free food deliveries, assistance with medications, telehealth services or “even a hotel stay.” 

“We know that it’s not easy to get through a two-week period of safe separation, but it’s incredibly important and were going to do everything in our power to help you,” Long said. 

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, alongside New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy, issued the joint travel advisory in late June, ordering travelers from states with a significant Covid-19 communitywide spread to self-quarantine for 14 days. The original order applied to only nine states. 

New York had previously stationed “enforcement teams” from the the state’s Department of Health at the city’s major airports to ensure compliance with the advisory. All passengers from incoming flights from states on the advisory are required to fill out a traveler form.

The city has also partnered with hotels, train, bus and car rental companies, requiring anyone booking a stay in New York City to fill out a travel form so the Test & Trace Corps can locate them and monitor travelers in isolation, Long said.

People who violate the state’s order will be subject to fines and a mandatory quarantine, Cuomo said. He said the fines will be $2,000 for the first violation, $5,000 for the second and up to $10,000 if they cause harm.

“We need to make sure that quarantine becomes stronger every day. That that law comes to life more every day” de Blasio said. 

The mayor’s announcement comes after Cuomo has repeatedly criticized local government and law enforcement in the state for not executing his executive orders, specifically regarding bars.

While the state has made progress suppressing its outbreak, once considered the epicenter of the nation, Cuomo modified New York City’s phase four reopening by barring restaurants from opening their indoor dining spaces as cases in other states surged. 

Here are the states and territories currently subject to the travel restrictions: 

• Alabama
• Alaska
• Arizona
• Arkansas
• California
• Florida
• Georgia
• Idaho
• Illinois
• Indiana
• Iowa
• Kansas
• Kentucky
• Louisiana
• Maryland
• Minnesota
