Or, perhaps multiple choice?
I mean you could use your question with nearly his every utterance.

the only other option is to baffle 'em with bullshit. If appears that Trump has taken the second option.

something about Whole Lung Lavage but didn't understand a word of it and is mixing up a fantasized version of what it actually is with the actual procedure that's probably far too dangerous to perform on coronavirus patients?

You see, the lungs are not being raked.

It is a simple as using Lysol and little, tiny, itsy-bitsy, teenie-weenie rakes to rake the lung floors and it only takes a minute.

Brilliant!

He is mixing up surface disinfectants with medications! Sunlight MAY kill viruses on direct contact ON SURFACES.

I'm sorry but the fact that Brix did not get up at that very moment, QUIT, and say, "I can't do this anymore. You are the most fucking stupid person I have every been around!!" makes me lose all respect for her.

And I understand that I am saying that Brix should lose her job to appease my own sense of indignation.

Seriously though, As a doctor, authorized by the government with the public trust, you cannot just sit there and let him say that without some kind of reaction.

He was asking about injecting household solvents into human beings based on their efficacy in killing viruses on surfaces. He knows ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about how science and the body works and people do not challenge him on it.

I have to believe that most Americans will hear this and say, "Is he stupid?" Or "Is he fucking crazy?" but there are some people out there that are desperate and scared, and dumb who might think it is worth a try.

We really have sunk to new lows in this country when this ignoramus is allowed to continue in office. There must be some way to get him out of there NOW.

Why do we have to wait until November? He's wearing us all down with his stupidity.

When he suggested we kill the virus by injecting sunlight into our veins, we all knew that was impossible. But disinfectant? How many numbnuts are going to kill themselves trying that?
