Joy Behar has spent two years telling America that Donald Trump is going to kill people.
This week Trump put his name on a platform selling cheaper prescriptions.
Dr Oz just responded with what may be the most accurate medical diagnosis of 2026.
How TrumpRx Generic Drug Prices Actually Work
President Trump announced that TrumpRx would add more than 600 generic medications through partnerships with Amazon Pharmacy, GoodRx, and Mark Cuban's Cost Plus Drugs.
Cuban isn’t a Trump supporter but he put aside his politics to help Americans with cheaper prescriptions.
He built Cost Plus Drugs to gut the pharmacy benefit manager system – the network of middlemen who inflate prices between the manufacturer and the patient and pocket the difference.
His model prices drugs at manufacturing cost plus a small markup and nothing else.
A statin that retails for $133 costs $5.45 at Cost Plus.
Cuban stood on the White House stage beside Trump anyway – because cheaper medicine helps people who don't care which side gets credit when the receipt shrinks.
TrumpRx gives uninsured patients, high-deductible plan families, and cash-paying customers a price comparison tool before they surrender $200 at the pharmacy counter for a pill that costs $6 somewhere else.
Joy Behar and The View Clash Over Trump Prescription Drugs
The View co-host Joy Behar watched the clip of Cuban and Trump together and responded: "First of all, you lie down with dogs, you wake up with fleas."
Then she told her audience: "Once Trump puts his name on prescriptions, we're all going to die, okay? He put his name on the Trump Shuttle, the Trump Vodka, Trump University, the Trump Hotel, and my favorite, the casinos that all went bankrupt."
Alyssa Farah Griffin pushed back hard.
She pointed out that Trump's name isn't on the drugs themselves – they're existing medications sold through a price comparison platform – and that one prescription she needed personally cost a tenth of the retail price on TrumpRx.
Sunny Hostin backed Behar anyway.
Behar didn't test her claim against the numbers or ask why a man who spent years attacking Trump showed up at the White House to shake his hand.
She saw the name, grabbed the panic button, and started whacking it – the same panic button she hits when Trump names a cabinet secretary, signs an executive order, or looks in the direction of a policy she hasn't read.
Dr. Oz and Trump Derangement Syndrome on TrumpRx
Dr. Oz, the administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, posted on X: "Unfortunately, we still have no medications for Trump derangement syndrome on TrumpRx.gov, but we're working on it."
That's the diagnosis Behar earned.
Trump attacked the prescription drug middleman system in his first term too.
He signed the Most Favored Nation executive order in 2020, pricing American drugs at what other countries pay for the same pills made in the same factories.
A federal judge blocked it.
Biden rescinded what survived.
Now Trump built a direct-to-consumer price comparison tool that routes around the entire insurance and pharmacy benefit manager apparatus – no middleman margin, no insurance approval required.
Studies estimate Cost Plus pricing alone could save Medicare Part D $8.6 billion annually on generics.
Individual cancer patients stand to save up to $25,200 a year on a single medication.
That is the program Joy Behar told her audience will kill them.
Seniors on fixed incomes don't need Behar's approval to fill a cheaper prescription.
They need to know whether the medicine costs less and whether they can make rent after picking it up.
One side spent the week scaring people away from cheaper drugs.
The other side built the tool.
