Trump and bleach
Biden repeated his familiar claim that Trump “is a guy who told us to put bleach in our arms to deal with Covid.”

Facts First: Biden’s claim is misleading. Trump never portrayed his ill-informed and widely denounced musings about using disinfectants to address Covid-19 as advice to Americans. Rather, Trump was talking about the possibility of scientists conducting tests of this idea.

Trump made his remarks, at a press briefing in April 2020 after Bill Bryan, the acting undersecretary of science and technology for the Department of Homeland Security, outlined tests in which he said sunlight or disinfectants like bleach and isopropyl alcohol quickly killed the coronavirus on surfaces and in saliva.

When Trump jumped shortly afterward to the dangerous idea of injecting disinfectants inside people’s bodies, he said: “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’d be interesting to check that, so that you’re going to have to use medical doctors with, but it sounds interesting to me. So we’ll see.”

Trump’s comments were slammed by medical experts as highly dangerous, and they prompted urgent warnings from public health authorities and companies that sell household disinfectants. But he never actually said he was suggesting citizens go and use such products.

When you've lost CNN on the bleach thing . . . well you know you must be dealing with a classic Russian information operation

the shark rant is kinda funny

 

but wrong thread

 

missed that. carry on with your lives, citizens

 

actually I realize that, AND I think it's funny

 

he uses the word "injection." I don't see where he advised anyone to "self-inject" themselves with anything. We do not assume that people who receive chemotherapy are self-injecting . . . not sure what the point is here in continuing to flog the dead horse by insisting that Trump was telling people to self-inject themselves with bleach, disinfectant, or anything else.

 

lol. and this is why Democrats are in trouble in 2024
