Biden already had measures in place to keep prescription drug prices low, Mango Mussolini came in and repealed that. Now he puts this out there to try to fix a problem he created(though I doubt he's even serious about it). Do you see how this works yet?

│ What were the measures that were in place?
│
│ EDIT: Just asking an honest question, guys; I really didn't know and just wanted to learn. I'm not casting doubt or asking sarcastically or anything like that. Googling only gave me results about the new order and not Biden's which Trump rescinded.
│
│ EDIT 2: It was Biden's E.O. 14087 that Trump then rescinded his first day in office.

│ │ There were ten separate drugs that were price capped by the biden admin, insulin being one of them.
│ │
│ │ Trump removed that entire EO within the first week.

│ │ │ It wasn’t an executive order it is a law. He theoretically shouldn’t be able to violate, but he doesn’t seem to care about the law.

│ │ │ │ That's correct, he did not rescind the law.
│ │ │ │
│ │ │ │ Trump v1.0 added a voluntary price option for insulin in the Medicare part D savings plan by E.O. that many participating insurers agreed to implement.
│ │ │ │
│ │ │ │ Later, during the Biden administration, Congress made these prices mandatory for all Part B and Part D plans through the Inflation Reduction Act.
│ │ │ │
│ │ │ │ Then Biden signed E.O. 14087 to commission a study to propose new ways to lower prescription drug prices further with new health savings models for part D.
│ │ │ │
│ │ │ │ Then on day 1 of Trump v2.0, he signed an E.O. to rescind E.O. 14087. So it has no effect on the prices set in the Inflation Reduction Act. Only congress or the supreme court can do that. His E.O. simply killed further development of new health savings models for Medicare part D.
│ │ │ │
│ │ │ │ Then social media lied to us about it.

still trying
