'Trump's family could reap major rewards from his 'TrumpRx' plan' [View all]

"A report highlights ties between Donald Trump Jr. and a company that stands to gain from the Trump-branded, government-backed pharmaceutical market...The president’s family is poised to take advantage of the drug market that he’s attempting to open up."

"No, this isn’t the plot of some kingpin drama on Starz. Rather, it’s the conclusion of new reporting from The Wall Street Journal on how a business tied to Donald Trump Jr. stands to benefit from his father’s newly announced plan to launch a Trump-branded pharmaceutical market funded by the government."

"Trump’s eldest son sits on the board of a prescription drug delivery company. That company is hosting a summit for pharmaceutical companies at Trump Jr.’s private club, the Journal reported. Those companies are likely to participate in the direct-to-consumer marketplace the president is planning to establish under the name 'TrumpRx' ."

"According to the Journal: The host: BlinkRx, an online prescription drug delivery company that this year installed Trump Jr. as a board member. The summit will conclude with a dinner at the Executive Branch, the exclusive new club founded by Trump Jr. and his close friends, according to people with knowledge of the event and a copy of the invitation viewed by The Wall Street Journal. BlinkRx stands to benefit from a shake-up of how patients buy drugs after President Trump urged pharmaceutical companies to sell their medicines directly to consumers. BlinkRx helps drugmakers do exactly that with a service that promises to set up direct-to-patient sales programs in as little as three weeks. TrumpRx, a new government website set to launch in early 2026, would funnel patients to direct-sale sites. — THE WALL STREET JOURNAL"
