It's kind of like the 57 States, isn't it?

You see, even though it's a stupid mistake, it could be as simple as someone in the room had recently said "57 states and territories" and then during the speed that got shortened because of the realities of speaking in public.

Same thing, some says "That drug has gone up 600% this year", and in discussions someone uses that same point of speech but words it differently.

Dig dig dig dig dog dig

Here is RFK days before taking about the “600% decrease”. This isn’t a slip up. They have their own math That’s his reasoning

This is as fricking stupid as saying you have “your own truth” etc etc.

Remember, she’s nothing more than failed college professor claiming to be an Indian.

Accomplished nothing, produced nothing. Now sitting in Congress doing the same thing.

Imma be clever & ignore the bigger point & instead mock RFK Jr’s on the fly remark just to make fun of MAGA. Hur hur hur!!

Nothing is ever serious for some so nothing will ever get solved.

It's important to avoid this kind of hyperbolic retardation when condescending others.

I don’t think it’s hyperbolic. If you can’t simply say it’s crazy and embarrassing to multiple times say you have your own way of doing math, you are insane

I say that about liberals who can’t simply admit there are only two genders either

If you do either of the above you have lost all reasonable traits and have warped your mind into defending insane things for “a cause”

It’s just my way of doing things you know? Now that we get to change how math works think of the possibilities

Welcome to America , where math and gender are both fluid

Probably half this board can't actually calculate percentages, and they think they should be running the country.

Would be nice to get JD in there.

I find this type of nitpicking BS so interesting.

Trump was conveying a message with the 600% comment. What was it? If you can tell us what it was, then you can say .... but it's really not a 600% cut. Until you can do that, you come across as intellectually uncurious.

Trump is using marketing, not math. Obviously.
If as Kennedy says, we hear criticism of a 600% price rise, then someone finds a way to cut that price 86%, what percent of the audience would appreciate the 86% in the same way as they were shocked by the 600%? What percent of Americans would realize the 86% reduction results in a number virtually identical to the initial (pre-600%) number?

The reality is the bigger number sounds better, and causes more focus on the price change.

It’s called intelligence and common sense. It’s why I know this particular controversy is actually hugely beneficial to President Trump because illustrating this mathematical error forces media to report on the actual fact that drug prices have decreased by over 90%. Anyone with a lick of common sense would understand this yet you and other libs can’t because you are blinded by hatred for the Orange man.


My goodness. The stories people tell themselves to justify things.
Once again, simplest solution is usually the truth, except on the Poli board.

Once again, people worried about inconsequential shite.

“Drug prices are coming down a lot”

“Haha, look at you, you got your percentages wrong”

Who fricking cares?
