He’s such an imbecile. “Open that plant and make ventilators! Get a big ventilator-making machine, fill it up and start making them, right now! What’s so complicated about that?”.

I wasn’t demonizing it, just merely pointing out that it’s a “real” drug and needs to be administered properly. When someone implies that properly testing and researching a drug is “red tape” it does a huge disservice. If it works and it helps people, that would be terrific.

“He’s been so attentive to the scientific literature and the details and the data.”

People aren’t grasping this. It’s not like an antibiotic you get for a sinus infection or something, hydroxychloroquine is a harsh drug that can be downright poisonous if used incorrectly. You can’t just start throwing it around like it’s a multivitamin. 

Fucking imbeciles. Properly using and conducting proper tests on a drug is not “red tape”. You can’t just hand out hydroxychloroquine like it’s cough drops, it’s a harsh and serious drug. Some wealthy blowhard pretending there’s some senseless bureaucratic holdup preventing this drug from being used is reckless and…

You’re right, “rally around the flag” wears off quick and his American Jesus Easter Rebirth scheme could backfire terribly if this thing sweeps through Trumpland in a few weeks time. Trumpland just hasn’t felt it yet like NY/NJ/CA/WA has.

It’s like he thinks this virus is a finite thing that can be “used up” and the “elderly” will act as paper towels, soaking up the virus to make the world safe for future generations of Americans to continue Ubering and Doordashing. I say let’s use Trumpies like canaries were used in coal mines. They’re willing to…

Waddles wants a convenient miracle so he can be the big hero, nothing more. The stock market crash has broken his walnut-sized brain and right now he’s desperately grasping at straws. America’s governors and mayors are running leadership circles around him right now, as the majority of them aren’t manaical sociopaths…

This. People need this drug, right now, and they’re not going to be able to obtain it because Trumpies are going to hoard it based on speculation.

LOL yeah, now suddenly he’s a chemist. In reality he was told about this drug and immediately “decided” it’d be his “miracle” drug, based on absolutely nothing he’s capable of understanding.

So many people in the country simply don’t understand “drugs” and how they work. Chloroquine is a potent substance with a long list of scary side effects. You can’t just hand out a drug like that like it’s cough drops or use it to self-medicate. There is SOME evidence that it MAY help, but the idea that it’s a…

It’s not a “miracle”. It may help, but it’s not something everyone can pop with abandon. It has serious side effects, while it may help with pneumonia it’s not some miracle drug.

Me too, friend, me too. I continue to be astounded that anyone, regardless of how dumb they might be, still takes him seriously.

He even puckers his mouth like it’s a face anus when he speaks.

You’re probably right.

You know he looks at those stock market reports and just dies inside, as that was his entire campaign platform. Now he’s trying to hype that anti-malarial drug, hoping it’ll save the day and make him look like a genius. And it may very well help some very sick people but it’s not a throat lozenge you can just pass out…

So let’s play along and pretend he “inherited a broken system”. He’s been in office for over three years. So what, exactly, has he been doing for all that time? It’s such a feeble, dimwitted excuse.

He’s like a baby, he has no idea how to stand quietly when someone else is speaking. The eyes start darting around, the hands start fidgeting and he starts making those weird faces in an attempt to draw attention to himself.

Claiming it was a “hoax” and “overblown” was most definitely his fault. The second he said that shit his drooling Trumpies ran with it and spread rampant misinformation all over the place. He’s created a situation where Dotard Nation thinks they can “defy” a fucking virus, they’re jabbering about their “rights” like…

Here in NJ it’s been madness. Supermarkets have been absolutely packed to the rafters all week, all day long. They’ve actually had to create “seniors only” hours first thing in the morning so elderly shoppers can buy food before the hyenas strip the shelves bare.
