    Eli Lilly tripled the price of insulin under Trump's pick for HHS and Democrats are pouncing on that.
    Insulin prices rose three-fold during the period he was there, including when he served as president of the company, even though the medicine remained the same.
    For those of you that don't know, insulin for diabetics was discovered in the 1920's.
    Here is a laugh....."He will be a star for better healthcare and lower drug prices," President Donald Trump said in a tweet announcing Azar as his pick on Monday.


    Lilly is one of three companies that have substantially increased the price of insulin, the lifesaving drug used to treat diabetes. Some of those increases came while Azar was president of the company's US unit.

    We can see where "the lying pile of dog excrement" that is in the white house has his loyalties.
