Right. And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning. Because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs. So it would be interesting to check that. So, that, you’re going to have to use medical doctors with. But it sounds — it sounds interesting to me.
Also in the same briefing:
It wouldn’t be through injection. We’re talking about through almost a cleaning, sterilization of an area. Maybe it works, maybe it doesn’t work. But it certainly has a big effect if it’s on a stationary object.
There are ways to make that make sense, but I think he just rambled and misspoke or he had a Biden moment. Either way, what he literally said was stupid, and he should be either smarter or more careful, but he never told anyone to inject themselves, any more than he told people to drink fish tank cleaner.
Well that makes it alright then. I mean that's not much of a defence is it? He said something that was stupid, idiotic and has put people's lives at risk. It's just about sums his disastorous and piss poor handling of this crisis.
My advice is just to ignore Darth Wedgius. He is clearly Trump troll and not worth wasting time on. Based on my experience with him he only does this to get rise out of people.
Yeah. I really thought he had some authenticity because every now and then he would concede something obvious, and that made me overlook the other 11 times that ranged from ignoring proof to gaslighting attempts.
Much like Our Glorious Leader, now that I think of it.

Also probably can't cure this by shoving a flashlight up your ass.

What is it with the left and straw men? Have so many of you actually lost contact with reality that you don't even recognize when you do it?
I don't think a Trump supporter is in any posistion to give lectures about losing contact with reality.
But I'm not the one tossing out straw men like we're facing a plague of crows. I'll support Trump when I think he's right and criticize him when I don't. Unfortunately for some people, that requires actual thought.

Ugggh, the paranoia for this crap-crisis is so...so...so what's that word that is iritate but overcooked with accusing with physical lies? I'll sit on it till something comes to mind.

But anyways, my mom is being so stupid and rejectful of all things during this panic and tried to kill me with prayers to justice angles, that's not how the justice system works on a conceptual level. I hate the panic as any of you but dealing with a early-dementia senior civilian who is also your loved one is straight up psychology warfare without Geneva protocols!

I have trouble understanding you. What are "physical lies"? What do you mean by "tried to kill you with prayers to justice angles"?

How is any of what said a strawman? Can you actually name one time he's been right during this entire crisis? Can you honestly hand on heart say he's handled this crisis well?

What Trump said was spectacularly stupid. People trying to say he's encouraging people to inject themselves with disinfectant are nearly as stupid. Either their comprehension skills are sorely lacking or they're not much brighter.

1) "Well that makes it alright then."

2) Ban on travel from PRC, which some experts have said delayed the worst in the U.S.

3) He could have handled it better, no doubt. But the mistakes he's made are similar to the mistakes of other western nations in underestimating it, and it was minimized by a lot of the press's talking heads too. Certainly better than Bill de Blasio's advice for people to go see a movie.

In the U.S., healthcare falls more to the states than to the federal government. When Trump said that he decides when the economy re-opens he was wrong. He can advise and criticize, but he can't close down or open up states any more than I can.
