TrumpRX.com Crashes Within Minutes of Trump Telling Staff to Make Sure It Works

The website TrumpRx.com is currently unavailable, just minutes after President Donald Trump announced it as a portal for newly discounted weight loss drugs Wegovy and Zepbound, which are also sold under the diabetes treatment brands Ozempic and Mounjaro, respectively.

“To sell these drugs to all consumers at deeply discounted prices via TrumpRx.com,” the president read from a prepared statement before asking aloud, “When is TrumpRX.com opening?”

Someone off camera replied, “The site is open, and it will launch in terms of giving people prices before the end of the year.” “Okay, got to make sure it’s successful, it’s got my name on it,” Trump replied.
