Skeptical Democrats have criticized TrumpRx as performative, noting that many of the drugs it features are already inexpensive for people with insurance or come in lower-cost generic versions sold elsewhere. Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts last month called it a "conduit for Big Pharma to steer consumers to expensive brand-name drugs when cheaper generics are available." The government-hosted website is not a platform for buying medications.
