Who cares. It's only money... Life is far far far more important.

Trump needed to ask the question off screen, to an expert... Not posit the question to the entire planet that makes himself look ignorant and uneducated.

Either way... I would need some evidence to backup the assertion that injecting any disinfectant is safe... Because I would be wearing a Hazmat suit at any disinfectant spill job. Heck, even lemon juice/vinegar spill would require the use of a hazmat suit because they would be toxic in such high quantities.

We know UV can be dangerous. It is Radiation.

he didn't say ingest disinfectant - period

Allow me to quote myself: "Trump needed to ask the question off screen, to an expert..."

I didn't say in that quoted post that Trump told people to ingest anything, period.

"And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in one minute. 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, but the whole concept of the light, the way it kills it in one minute. That’s pretty powerful."

Missing those three words this whole time has bothered me.  There is a great deal of wiggle room in those three words.  That said if he hadn't said that in a press conference then how do you expect him to take credit later if something is found that 'cleans' the body of the virus

I can almost hear the oaf now "That was my, idea, a really great idea, ahead of it's time, where we cleanse the body of the virus"

Either way, he looked like a baboon asking a stupid question in front of the world, he needed to ask the question, off-screen, to an expert, to get educated, like what every other figurehead does.

As the Southern Hemisphere enters the Flu season... The current Corona virus restrictions is having a profound effect on the Flu with Flu cases down a whopping  80%.

That is impressive... And all entirely attributed to people staying home, being cleaner and social distancing.
