in the white house. in just a few moments, you are going to hear him tell me why he wants to continue relieving the nation, and why he is the best person for the job. this afternoon, i sat down with the president at the white house and we talked about where he wants to take the country next. since taking office, a major focus of biden s has been the economy, and rebuilding our infrastructure. the chips and science act, along with the inflation reduction act. with all of that, biden s economic plan includes his investing in americas agenda to help make all of that legislation an absolute reality. today s jobs report showed the economy is still going strong, but the question is, is all of this enough to send biden back to the white house? we talked about that and a whole lot more in this first interview since officially announcing that he is running for reelection. mister president, there is a lot we can cover, but i want to start with maybe your most ambitious agenda item,
american tax dollars and paying for the elderly s health care needs. you can t charge more than $35 for that drug, that saves 160 billion dollars, here? that 160 billion dollars less will be paid out for the american taxpayer to help the elderly, people on medicare with a problem. a lot of this is just kicking in. we are in a situation where next year, for the drug cost, no senior will have to pay, total cost, total cost of all of the drugs, from expensive cancer drugs to whatever drug they are taking, won t have to pay more than 30 $500 a year. the following years past this alone now. the following year they wanted to pay more than $2,000. the saves another 200 billion dollars. but the other team will not canvas. even though it is a law, we passed it, they won t count
january six, it was the largest crowd i ve ever spoken to. they were there with love in their hearts, that was an unbelievable, and it was a beautiful day. the president one from four, five 600 bucks a month, down to $35 a month. it saves the government 160 billion dollars. it was a rigged election. we had a rigged election. the election was rigged. do you think that s effective? no. but it is expected and it s just who he is. no, i mean, what president biden put forward. the side by side you saw right there is what president biden put out today, here s what i ve offered, here s what he s offered. do you think that s effective on the part of president biden? i don t, know i think that s kind of a horse race he questioned, it s not my area of expertise is it effective or not, that s what i mean by the odds. like, that s the whole game of the odds, what s working, what s not working and i think that s a mistake in direction
for supporters to know how america is going to be different. and to know what s going to happen in our communities. and to know what kind of change he plans to bring and to get an introduction to authoritarianism. because that is the most likely outcome if trump regains power. it was no surprise president biden responded, but i want to play side by side that biden tweeted of the town hall, watch this. we created a record 12. 7 million new jobs. january six, it was the largest crowd i ve ever spoken to. they were there with love in their hearts, that was an unbelievable, and it was a beautiful day. the price of from four, five 600 bucks a month, down to $35 a month. it saves the government 160 billion dollars. it was a rigged election. we had a rigged election. the election was rigged. do you think that s effective? no. but it is expected and it s just who he is. no, i mean, what president biden put forward.
