On April 23, President Donald Trump suggested the injection of disinfectants might kill the coronavirus inside one’s body. Several federal government agencies rushed to advise this was highly dangerous. But they might be inhabited by the deep state.
The manufacturers of the products publicly stated that none of these products were meant to be used like this and serious injury could result. Hillary Clinton probably owns their stock and they may be manufacturing these products in foreign countries.
Many medical doctors tweeted that there was no benefit and serious harm could result (similar to their reaction to a previous speculation about hydroxychloroquine). Likely, they are Democrat elitists.
Some poison control centers have reported that calls have doubled since the president’s musings, though the media may be reporting fake news.
Deborah Birx, one of the president’s epidemiologists, was on stage when he made these remarks. He turned to her multiple times to get her concurrence that her group was studying his recommendations. One wonders why she did not take this opportunity to clarify or correct him. Could it be that she felt intimidated?
Trump later claimed his comments were sarcastic, but after viewing them, I see little difference between them and the vast majority of his assertions from economics to foreign policy. It might make one wonder whether those are any wiser than his medical recommendations.
To be clear, I beg you not to drink bleach. But that may be because I am a Trump hater.
