PROTECT YOUR DNA WITH QUANTUM TECHNOLOGY
Orgo-Life the new way to the future Advertising by AdpathwayHealth and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. drew ridicule on social media Wednesday after defending what critics have previously mockingly dubbed the “MAGA math” of Donald Trump.
The president has repeatedly claimed in recent months that his administration has — or will — slash prescription drug prices by figures that are more than 100%, an assertion that’s mathematically impossible unless companies pay people to take their medications.
During a Senate hearing, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) noted Trump’s claim that his TrumpRx website, which seeks to sell discounted prescription drugs directly to patients, has “cut prices by as much as 600%.”
Kennedy tried to explain Trump’s thinking:
“President Trump has a different way of calculating … there’s two ways of calculating percentage. If you have a $600 drug and you reduce it to $10, that’s a 600% reduction.”

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) April 22, 2026Warren didn’t have time to get into it with Kennedy.
But the explanation is incorrect, and critics were quick to point it out:
Well, then, its no wonder so many of Trumps businesses went bankrupt.
Reducing $600 by 600 percent results in -$3,000 (negative three thousand dollars).#TrumpIsAnIdiot
So his “different way” is also known as “the wrong way” tracks across his entire administration.
— Matt Mullen 🌻 (@mattmullen3) April 22, 2026There are two ways to count percentages: the right way and Trump’s way, which is wrong.
— 𝕷𝖚𝖈𝖎𝖋𝖊𝖗 (@LucifersTweetz) April 22, 2026Wait, WTF? President Trump has his own totally made-up method of calculating "savings percentages" and it makes no sense at all. From $600 to $10 is apparently described as a "600% reduction."
Oh dear God the math geeeeeks are gonna go ape sh-t crazy on this one. https://t.co/vXHhdqQDb2
OMFG!

No, you imbecile. That’s a 98.33% drop. No math besides make-believe math makes it 600%. pic.twitter.com/5lmJ24WXur
Wharton College must be proud of the math skills they taught Donald Trump?😜
— Denison Barb (@DenisonBarbs) April 22, 2026The 2+2=5 thing was supposed to be a metaphor; when you’re so utterly controlled by your totalitarian government that you begin to actually believe the lies they’re asking you to repeat.
I didn’t expect it would ever be taken so literally.
Trump “has a different way of calculating percentages” might be the understatement of the year. 🤡
— Anna Baxter 🇺🇸✌🏻 (@MsAnnaBaxter) April 22, 2026President Trump has a different way of calculating percentages. Yeah, it’s called "making stuff up.” We’ve moved past "Common Core" and entered "Creative Writing with Numbers." #mathishard
— Salty By Design (@saltybydesign_) April 22, 2026It’s not a “different way” of calculating, it’s fucking stupidity.
