The greedy jerk bought $1.7 million in pharmaceutical stock right before Republican legislation forced the price up, and the jackass made $55 million.

 Trump investments benefited from exemptions

Investments in pharmaceutical companies made by President Donald Trump increased significantly after he returned to the White House last year, with his portfolio adding millions of dollars in stock in firms that benefited from a Republican-backed law that shields certain medications from Medicare price negotiations.

The report, released Friday by the Joint Economic Committee’s minority arm, found that Trump’s pharmaceutical stock holdings grew from a maximum reported value of $1.7 million in 2024 to $56.2 million at the end of 2025., and are higher today.

The report said that included $39.1 million of stock held in companies that benefited from exemptions to Medicare’s drug price negotiation program, which came through a provision in Republicans’ 2025 tax and spending law that forces us all to pay more for necessary medications.

Yahoo…Dotard’s Big Beautiful Diesel Deal pissed off Ukraine and most of the world, plus well over half of Congress and the US, BUT, it helped his buddy Putin and his partners in Big Oil, sooo, we can see where the dick’s priorities are.

  President Donald Trump’s diesel deal with Russia would supply the global market with 4.8 million metric tons, or nearly 36 million barrels total.  This is equivalent to a little more than a single day of global demand.  The U.S. is a net diesel exporter so it does not need Russian supply, said Andy Lipow, president of Lipow Oil Associates. Goldman Sachs estimated the initial Russian release would only reduce wholesale diesel prices by $1 to $2 per barrel, which is currently at approximately $200/barrel.
