This is the correct answer. President Trump has been saying this for months, in almost every rally as well. You have been watching the rally's right?!?

Yep he said it at several rallies that if we don’t re elect him the Jan 1 favored nations clause will be terminated. And how ridiculous it is that we even had to wait for Jan 1 for it to kick in. And how he’s pissed off big pharma.

Overall consensus is he was talking about a healthcare thing which is supposed to force hospitals to tell us what they're charging for services and I guess lower prices dramatically. A few speculate that he might've been hinting at some other unknown.

sounds to me he switched topics, but it is subtle.

“[...] require. The biggest thing, nobody even knows about[...]”

Here's the context of Trumps "biggest thing" statement in this Sept 10 MI rally speech:

"We will end surprise medical billing, require the biggest thing that nobody even knows about and it’s all signed and it goes into effect on January 1st. You better make sure I win. Can you imagine? This is going to be the biggest thing and nobody understands what it is. You’ll figure it out. Price transparency. Did they fight me on that one. January 1st. And further reduce health insurance premiums and the cost of prescription drugs at a level like you’ve never seen before. I’ve already signed it. Favored Nations. The drug companies are not happy, I will tell you."

It's important not to cut in/out in the middle of a sentence if you want to understand what to expect on Jan 1st. Sure sounds like it's related to medical/ pharmaceutical/ health insurance. Not saying tomorrow will be a "nothingburger" but it's a huge stretch to say Trump suddenly changed the subject right in the middle of his sentence to foretell of some mysterious event planned for Jan 1st.

Btw, I live in Vegas and there are a lot of helicopters flying around right now!
