Not EVERYONE... Not all of us... Those who are sick. AND - It is also being tested as a preventative in those in very high contact, like medical people. That's also very hopeful. Not for everyone, for them... for now. Most people listening understand that. Those who don't... I don't know if it's a mental defect or if it's deliberate, but it's not helpful.
The left wing media is twisting it into that. He IS being optimistic and hopeful about these drugs as a treatment for the virus but not advising everyone should just take it. lol.
It is intentional on the part of the left who are using this virus as another weapon against Trump.

Why? Because Trump loves him some faux experts.

White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow on Tuesday sought to downplay the significance of the coronavirus outbreak, claiming that the virus had been contained in the U.S. and that the economic consequences would be limited.
“We have contained this. I won’t say [it’s] air-tight, but it’s pretty close to air-tight,” Kudlow, the National Economic Council director, said on CNBC’sThe Exchange," adding that while the virus was a “human tragedy,” it would not be an “economic tragedy.”--The Hill.
Their economic advice is worse than their medical advice, honest to god why is an economist weighing in on medical solutions.

I don't know about his possible financial gain, which I assume will be zero, but it is surely another nail in the coffin for the 2020 election. Trump was a shoe in to be reelected, now with the Trump Drug having such amazing success, even the ignorant leftist are going to vote for him, the margin will be bigly.. Trump huge majority, pudding brain Biden, very darn few. There just can't be that many ignorant people left to vote for old Joe the demented pedophile.. Four more years of greatness.... MAGA

Let’s just ban the drug for use on any registered Democrat. They don’t want it and orange man bad.

Seems like a simple solution to me, right?

I do think most people see it for what it is, even through the media spin. I can only hope.... Because it's despicable behavior in time of crisis, to be trying to create mistrust and disorder. I see good people who are seriously scared, and these media people are NOT HELPING by making them fear the president and the government is failing in their jobs and killing people, when they clearly aren't. I think we're going to see an upswing this week. I think we're winning this thing.

A leader SHOULD be offering hope, in addition to everything else. I want to hear about the progress of treatments, vaccines, good news in addition to everything else.

A leader needs to look at the entire picture.

The difference? Navarro is loyal to Trump and therefore loves America. Fauci is not loyal to Trump, is not his employee, and thus does not care, does not want America to keep Winning. Understand? This is politics.
