It's crazy. Seabass says his other miracle cure was just as bad as recommending bleach, and the asshole goes and recommends bleach! :lol: He's trolling. What a piece of shit.
So anyway, he's not trolling. These disinfectant comments really should remove any doubt any of us may have left about his limited cognitive abilities. I've watched that clip about a dozen times now to make absolutely certain that his words weren't being misrepresented, mischaracterized, or misconstrued, and there's just no other way to interpret it. He said it all right, and he meant what he said, and he said it sincerely. No sarcasm, no trolling, no 57D chess. He really is just as pig ignorant and stupid as he appears to be.

I agree. He got excited by his idea and blurted it out.
The latest fad is a poverty social. Every woman must wear calico,
and every man his old clothes. In addition each is fined 25 cents if
he or she does not have a patch on his or her clothing. If these
parties become a regular thing, says an exchange, won't there be
a good chance for newspaper men to shine?

Trump: Maybe people with coronavirus could inject disinfectant or shine tremendous ultraviolet light into their bodies?

World: Laughs at Trump's astounding idiocy.

Trump the following day: WAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Debacle of Trump's coronavirus disinfectant comments could be tipping point
The US president plans to ‘pare back’ his daily coronavirus briefings after falsely claiming his suggestion to inject cleaning products had been ‘sarcastic’

For Donald Trump, it was the strangest and most news-making thing he could have done: instead of taking questions from journalists, dominating the nation’s airwaves yet again, the US president gave a short pre-written statement and then stalked off the stage.

The abrupt end of Friday night’s daily press conference, which has become a ribald, unruly and often shocking ritual in America during the coronavirus pandemic, was probably the clearest sign yet of how badly Trump’s bizarre statements over disinfectant have shaken his administration.

Instead of going on the offensive after the world reacted with shock and horror to his Thursday night suggestion that the coronavirus might be treated by injecting disinfectant into a human body, Trump claimed he was being “sarcastic” and then retreated from public view.

The New York Times reported that some officials in the White House thought “it was one of the worst days in one of the worst weeks of his presidency.”

But it was Trump’s silence on Friday night that spoke volumes.
Cant they invoke the 25th amendment. He is totally unfit for office.

When I saw that video, I realized this we are not living in the real world but in a very badly scripted soap opera.

It makes no difference. Saying that he moved in on a married woman like a bitch or that you can grab women by the pussy if you're a star didn't seem to dent his chances. The disinfectant thing will be replaced by something equally outrageous tomorrow and we'll all be talking about that instead.

No, we won't, because a global nuclear holocaust will destroy the internet

Trump should hear about how droplets with viruses drop to the ground after leaving the mouth. I'm looking forward to his idea of getting viruses out of the body by doing handstands with an open mouth.

Pelosi talks plain:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., is criticizing President Trump's effort to withhold funding from the World Health Organization and other steps his administration is reportedly taking to sideline the global health agency.

"It's stupid — it's more than stupid; it's dangerous," Pelosi told NPR.
