Donald Trump's offhand remark about putting his own name on prescription drugs has reignited questions in Washington about his health and, more awkwardly for his team, cast fresh attention on what many Republicans already saw as Karoline Leavitt's worst messaging blunder of the year.
The episode unfolded on Thursday at a White House event on healthcare affordability, where Trump was promoting TrumpRx, a branded initiative tied to his plans on medication costs and treatment access. The 79-year-old president told attendees, 'I now have my name on medication,' a line clearly intended to sell the scheme but one that immediately set social media alight with jokes and speculation over what, exactly, he might be taking.
