Noted numbers guy Donald Trump is making promises he can’t keep again. And this time it’s not just because he’s lying through his teeth, it’s because it is mathematically impossible to accomplish what he wants to deliver.
Trump: We’re going to get the drug prices down by 1000% 600% 500% 1500%. Numbers that are not even thought to be achievable.

Ok, so let’s see here. *Pulls out calculator, punches in the numbers* Ah, yes, I see, drug companies are going to pay me to take drugs. Sounds like a good approach. Why haven’t we done this before?
I’m not the only one left scratching my head. Here is how the internet parsed this latest serving of word salad.

Trump’s drug plan is to reduce prices so hard they enter another dimension and pay you back.

The US government is going to pay people $500 each time they fill one prescription? He’s right. We never thought it was achievable.
