Trump dismisses hydroxychloroquine study that undermines him as a "Trump enemy statement"


President Donald Trump is now dismissing medical information promulgated by his own government as a “Trump enemy statement.”

Trump made that remark on Tuesday afternoon, when he was asked following a lunch with Republican senators to explain his rationale for promoting unproven and potentially dangerous hydroxychloroquine treatments for coronavirus. The president’s ensuing effort to defend the stunning announcement he made on Monday that he’s taking the anti-malarial drug didn’t end up making much sense. But it did reveal a reflexive contempt for scientific reasoning that undercuts his talking points.

“Why is it okay for you to promote the use of this drug when you’re not a doctor?” a reporter asked. Trump responded by making a case that he knows better than medical professionals do.

“I worked with doctors,” he began. “If you look at the one survey, the only bad survey, they were giving it to people that were in very bad shape, they were very old, almost dead. It was a Trump enemy statement.”

and he is pushing it out to his faithful.

Snake oil salesman will sell snake oil.

Seriously though . . .

Many people say, and I've heard, that the Clorox needs to go up your backside, and the UV light needs to be swallowed to shine inside your stomach. Put it on a string, and pull out after 30 minutes.

With regular doses of hydroxychloroquine, your safety is guaranteed.

The very old, almost dead citizens need not bother.

Doctor Trump said so.
