    One of Trump’s first actions was to roll back President Joe Biden’s 2022 executive order lowering prescription drug prices for those in Medicare and Medicaid.

    AFAIU, this did not cost the government very much at all. Negotiating with Pharma. If there was a government payment involved, I’d assume that it provided far more healthcare/medicare savings than the cost of those payments.
