During a televised Cabinet meeting, President Donald Trump made a series of claims about prescription drug pricing and the success of his administration’s drug discount initiatives.

Trump stated that during his first term he had significantly reduced prescription drug prices and claimed his current policies were lowering prices by as much as 70 to 90 percent.He also promoted a government-linked website called TrumpRX.gov, describing it as one of the most popular websites in the world and saying consumers were purchasing medications at dramatically reduced prices.

Trump further claimed that nearly 1,000 low-cost generic drugs had recently been added to the program and argued that these efforts should help Republicans win future midterm elections.

As he moved between different topics during the meeting, MSNBC’s MS NOW host Chris Jansing interrupted the live broadcast after approximately 15 minutes, stating that the event had become filled with factual inaccuracies and misleading statements.Jansing specifically challenged Trump’s description of TrumpRX.gov, saying the service was limited in scope and did not provide broad access to all Americans.

She explained that the program mainly applied to uninsured individuals or people paying cash for prescriptions and did not work in the same way for Medicare or Medicaid recipients.

The segment highlighted ongoing disputes between media organizations and Trump over the accuracy of his public statements, particularly regarding healthcare and prescription drug pricing.

The article focuses primarily on the network’s decision to stop airing the remarks live and publicly correct what it considered misleading information.
