So who is...
 

...buying syringe/Lysol/Clorox stocks this morning?


Simply unbelievable. :ohdear:

You

:clap2::clap2:

Yes, it is. Try listening to the press briefing and you will see the president said nothing of the sort. He ASKED Dr. Birx since disinfectants kill the virus, is there any way that could be adapted to treat people. HE DID NOT SUGGEST ANYONE INJECT THEMSELVES WITH CLOROX.

The MSM liberal hacks will try anything to discredit Trump

Yep

“I see disinfectant, where it knocks [coronavirus] out in a minute—one minute—and is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside, or almost a cleaning,” Trump said at Thursday’s press briefing. “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 you're going to have to use medical doctors, but it sounds interesting to me.” (When Bryan said that his lab was not doing any research to look into that, the president responded, “Maybe it works, maybe it doesn’t work.”)

The company that makes Lysol products has urged people not to try injecting disinfectants to treat coronavirus after U.S. President Donald Trump said it “would be interesting to check that.”
Manufacturer RB was forced to issue the extraordinary statement a day after Trump was accused of “actively endangering the public’s health” in his latest press briefing.

Referring to research that found isopropyl alcohol is more effective than bleach at killing the virus, Trump said: “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, by an injection inside or almost a cleaning? Is there a way we can do something like that by injection, inside, or almost a cleaning?”

Your point????
Again , IT WAS A QUESTION DIRECTED AT DR. BIRX
Yes, a pretty dumb question, but CERTAINLY NOT A SUGGESTION THAT THE AMERICAN PUBLIC SHOULD START INJECTING THEMSELVES WITH DISINFECTANTS. The MSM can twist words better than a prosecuting attorney.

Just another TALKING POINT from CNN the 24 hour Talk-Show on bashing our President...

Point? His suggestions are taken to heart by many.
Even you agree, a pretty dumb question...……………..

Yep, he's already claimed his first victim

"Both days, I added ½ cup of Clorox to my bathwater to combat the radiation and metals in my system and oxygenate it."

Chris Cuomo's wife

Since my time, over 80 years, our country relied on one person to talk to us, and we hoped it was honest and consistent.

It is no excuse to blame the listener......if that is the case, how do we know what is a serious comment if they are seen as "throw always"

Why listen at all then ? Speaking to the country with seriousness and candor is part of the job.

Not sure of the point here. Are you mocking someone who is sick ?

There will be others....change that...those who already have tried variations of what is promulgated, no matter the intent, from the seat of our government. Let us all pray for no serious consequences.

I suppose your comment was meant to change the subject and attack the family of someone you hate...that, in itself is a shame.

...personally I am SO TIRED of the politcal talking heads on the virus topic and others. I try to tune these critics (both sides) out.

Bottom line it DOES NO GOOD for the US public to be dragged thru this on a non-stop basis. They play with us. However it DOES a lot of GOOD for the newspaper/television/internet etc $$$$ coffers.

Speaking of which, that was a great movie. Good analogy too.

I agree and have proposed many times. Why are politicians allowed to make a medical update into a rally ?

I, like you wonder why that goes for n, but we are told it gets good ratings

I see you kind of "forgot" to mention his followup comments:

“Not cleaning through injection...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.”

And then we have Chris Cuomo's wife, who's touted using Clorox baths for Coronavirus treatments. (Chris Cuomo is the brother of NY Governor Andrew Cuomo.) Here comes the "don't do that!" experts again. Oops...

The President was musing, which many of us have done (check other posts on this venue). However, he needs to remember that many people take his words as gospel, and he shouldn’t muse out loud at a press conference.

Wrong. He suggested it precisely.

Yep.

Folks need to really watch the camera that was focused on Dr. Birx...when these ignorant/asinine statements were made. :oops:

Try READING the quote again. That's where you look at the words on the screen. Unfortunately that does not guarantee understanding them.

If only we should be so lucky...

:bigbow:

To avoid any chance of being deleted by linking to something that could be construed 'P,' I suggest one use key words in the above quote...to find where (and more importantly WHY) it emanated. :ho:

I too am fed up with being dragged through "the mashed potatoes and gravy" by the political talking heads on both sides of the aisle and the media....to the point that I really don't care to watch television any more....

we'll pop a DVD in, or watch something on Amazon Prime when we want to be entertained (while our Kindle Whites are recharging)

Instead of taking snippets from posters form your own opinion. Here is the video. Watch Dr Birx reaction. Looks like she has mastered the art of deep breathing.

CNN airs live the moment Chris Cuomo could ‘Finally emerge’ from his basement'....
That was a week after he actually left his basement and also got into an argument with a biker outside, did CNN report that?
No!...

We now are living in a time when we can never underestimate the power of babble.

Thank you. :thumbup:

I personally wish that Dr. Birx, who is probably a great person in addition to being a great doctor...would just exhibit a little more spine when we really need it. :ohdear:

The President of the United States has never had the liberty to "muse", think aloud, or make any statement that even suggests that.

That is from the beginning of time...

Any time a President even slips to this, he will be reminded by the press......EVERY President. Every person in that office knows that wahat he says will be broadcast around the world, and taken seriously by different degrees.

Blaming the listener for what the speaker says is very very....well, searching for words since it is very new .

Sometimes you gotta step up....this is not a regular job. The responsibilities for what you say can be very profound.

How does one tell when the leader is "musing" or serious ?

Trump said that maybe disinfectants could somehow be put into the body, the lungs and clean out the lungs. Also, it may be possible to put a UV light into the body somehow to kill the virus. This is indefensible; no other way to put it.

New concept.....blame the listener and reporter, or videographer for what is said by the speaker

I love her but I think I have to agree. She could have spoken up in her usual respectful way and addressed his comments in no uncertain terms. I think she was probably shocked by what she heard and at a loss for words. She looked like she wanted to be anywhere but where she was.

Thanks, rustyP, for posting the video link. It was exactly as I remembered it.

It may speak for an ignorance of medicine, but certainly isn't "indefensible". It was a stupid QUESTION posed to Dr. Birx, NOT a suggestion for treatment. And if you think stupid medical questions are confined to the current POTUS, just go and review the medical and health posts on TOTV. Also, what I consider a stupid question is probably vastly different from other people

History has shown that the very first action taken, when trying to establish absolute control/authority...is to try and eliminate a free press.

Screeching "fake news" (particularly when it's not) and personally attacking reporters for asking tough questions/calling out lies, while avoiding the question(s)...is the first step.

We are there. :ohdear:

I find Dr Birx has more spine then most of us, she just choses to not get into a discussion that would play into the lefts hands. Most of us know that whatever Trump says is almost always candid and stream of thought comes out his mouth. I'm ok with that as I can usually filter that stuff and listen to the docs. Dr Birx has contradicted Trump but does it strategically and softly. I personally believe there is a strong team handling this (under VP Pence), I agree that Governors should be in charge and am appreciateive of all the companies, universities, scientists, small business's and individuals that are contributing to keeping us safe. Now if only we could get all of us doing our part it would really be impactful.

Really. Somebody posts a list of what the current POTUS has said that sounds ridiculous, and you don't see the relevance of stupid things and outright lies uttered by a previous POTUS??????

Context???? are you serious??? The first three were statements about health care "reform". The last one was caught on an open mike with the president of Russia.

:agree:


It's not too late for her and doctor Fauci to decide to stand up together (they already have thousands of other Drs./scientists that will join them)...to speak truth to power.

Thank you for the link. I had heard about it but had not seen it. Now I have. And there it is. Live. Verbatim.
