Donald Trump really loves telling tall tales. Oftentimes his lies are so ridiculous you have to wonder who actually believes the words coming out of his mouth, for example, his latest claims about French president, Emmanuel Macron “begging” Trump to raise the prices of prescription drugs.
On Tuesday Donald Trump bragged to Republicans at the newly renamed Trump-Kennedy Center claiming that he had successfully forced France to agree to triple its drug prices by threatening a 25% increase in tariffs otherwise. The U.S. president claimed that his negotiation with Macron was supposed to address the difference in price American consumers pay for drug prices compared to consumers in foreign countries.
