But for the first time in many years, we'll slash the cost of prescription drugs, and we will bring fairness to America. Drug prices will come down by much more, really, if you think, '59. If you think of a drug that is sometimes 10 times more expensive, it's much more than the 59 percent. You know, it depends on the way you want to analyze it, but in one way you could analyze it that way. But between '59 and '80, and I guess even 90 percent. So when I worked so hard in the first term, and if I got prices down -- remember, I was the only one to ever get prices down for a full year, but I'd get them down like 2 percent, and I thought it was like a big deal. Well, we're getting them down 60, 70, 80, 90 percent, but actually more than that if you think about it in a way mathematically. And Farmer has to say we're sorry, but we'll not be able to do this any longer to these countries that have been so tough. They've been very tough. Nasty. It's trade. It's trade. And Farmer is also very powerful, and the Democrats have protected Farmer.
