This is what happens when his words and actions are so often indefensible. His people don't put the pitchforks down, they just look for another battle to fight.

IMO the “drink bleach” memes are just overkill if you’re going for comedic impact. They need no alterations.Not saying his words never get twisted but when you say something that monumentally stupid you deserve whatever exaggerations.
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/lysol-manufacturer-warns-against-internal-use-after-trump-comments-n1191586
Even that article says “ President Donald Trump suggested that people could get an "injection" of "the disinfectant that knocks (coronavirus) out in a minute.” And he never said that in the clips I’ve seen. He specifically says it should be tested by medical doctors to see if it has any promise. But the media like this article is saying he says you can get an injection.
It was already a dumb comment on its own, we don’t need to make it worse. And guess what, if someone actually is dumb enough to try it who are they going to blame, Trump or the media who actually said it?
It was a dumb comment, I’m not arguing that. As I listened I just rolled my eyes at how stupid it sounded.
But my point is there is a massive difference between asking medical doctors to look into something and asking people to try it. The media is misquoting him as asking people to try it or at least suggesting this treatment already exists. However dangerous you think his comment was, wouldn’t it be 10 times worse to misquote him on that to make it sound like he thinks it’s safe?Now if anyone is truly concerned that this is so dangerous that they feel the need to warn people, then how big of a story would it be if the media ignored it, or just reported the actual truth? The false reporting of his comments and comments like Hilary’s are more dangerous because they give false credibility to those claims.If I didn’t watch the clip I would probably believe he’s suggesting to drink chemicals because you have the media and even Hilary saying he did.
Now to that last comment. What makes you think this would be like the Nazi’s treatment of the Jews? We do medical testing every day, what makes you think this time we’d ignore all safety protocols and just sacrifice people?
The media is saying, "He suggested it as a possible cure"
There are people that are reading/hearing that and saying, "he suggested people try it".
Just like, some poeple will actually try it.
Hilary tweeted don’t ingest chemicals because trump thinks it’s a good idea. False, he never told anyone.
If Lysol and Hilary and all the other media outlets weren’t trying to push an agenda (make Trump look even worse) wouldn’t they just tell the truth? It would be safer and more effective to just say “don’t invest anything. That is not what trump suggested so don’t try it!” Then add your 2 cents about how it won’t work anyway.
But just saying not to listen to trump and don’t drink bleach puts out a message that’s false.
I already said it comments were dumb. So I’m not defending him, I’m calling out those who aren’t accurately reporting the incident though.At this point I’ve repeated myself enough. I don’t agree with twisting someone’s words and misquoting him to make a dumb comment sound even worse, and then blame him when people listen to the false reporting. Many seem okay with it. That’s my opinion, everyone can have theirs.
The president of the United States publicly asked if his team of experts could look into if its a good idea to inject people with disinfectants and you are more upset over the media's characterization of that utter nonsense? The man has no brain! That should be your biggest concern / fear at this point.
But, alas, now he has said he was being sarcastic. So, naturally I would assume you would totally gobble that up as well.
November cannot come soon enough. This nightmare has to end.

MayDay10 said:Like follow me here. The virus attacks the lungs, right. what if we removed the patient's lungs, then the virus would have nothing to attack and die off, right? Now Im not a doctor, but just really smart and can figure these things out. Dr Birx. Please look into the removal of patients lungs. right. OK.They actually had some success with ECMO, which is fairly close to what you are describing. When my daughter was born she had PPHN and almost needed ECMO. Thankfully she recovered without it
very scary machine but it can save lives

Thanks, I needed that.
my favorite episode is when nathan explosion gets elected governor of florida, has a natural disaster, and reacts pretty much the same way trump does. he even names the hurricane "Scrambles the death dealer"."You can tell the greatness of a man by what makes him angry." - Lincoln

Lerxst1992 said:Trumps injecting disinfectant comment was beyond stupid because it actually removed some significant good news yesterday from the headlines. If the NY data is accurate, 14% have been infected and have antibodies, which would significantly lower the estimated covid mortality rateQuoting myself, lame.
But we did have good news on the antibody rates in NY. This could mean much fewer fatalities if we do not get a vaccine before herd immunity.Too bad trump had to ruin it with his disinfectant nonsense.0
