He has since said he was speaking sarcastically when he made those suggestions. So anyone out there trying to spin this as he didn't say what he said is behind the excuse curve. The White House does damage control by saying he didn't say what he said. Then he comes along with the "owning the libs" excuse every.single.time. It's so predictable I'm surprised the people who support him and can stand to watch him haven't picked up on that pattern.
Bull crap, nothing more.

Again, surfaces and air, OP.

It's the equivalent of saying Fabreze removes odors from clothes/other fabrics and the air therefore we need to see if ingesting/injecting Fabreze could remove the odors from flatulence.

Give it up Trumpsters.

There really is two kinds of TDS: one for the Left and one for the Right.
He was talking about UV light in the body and extrapolated to disinfectants.

He's not a scientist. We got it. We know he talks too much. Still better than anything else out there by a mile.

Right to the bitter end, I see.

Meh.


Wouldn't be necessary if you all didn't spend so much time trying to spin his comments into something he didn't actually say.

You've been doing it for four years now, so correcting y'all is sort of a reflex action.


Trump never said that all Mexicans were murderers and rapist.


Trump never said White Supremacists were very fine people.


Trump never told anyone to eat fishtank cleaner.


And he didn't tell anyone to inject Clorox or Lysol.

Trump just asked a stupid question - is there any way we could inject these and clean things out? Then of course, he later said he was just joking, which is a transparent lie.



Thing is....it's not a stupid question.


https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6122858/



He asked if they were LOOKING at doing something SIMILAR inside the body by injection.

But it's only a stupid question if you've never heard of Ultraviolet Irradiation and you also assume that "something like that" literally meant Lysol or Clorox.

He said he made those statements to test the media. Really, Thats his genius response. I can now see why his advisor are requesting he make fewer briefings. Can he make any more a fool of himself.

If you take things in their proper context, you need to watch Bill Bryan. He is the Science and Technology Director for Homeland Security. Below is the video for the entire press conference. Skip ahead to minute 19 of the video when he speaks and watch the entire 7-8 minutes in its context.

What you will hear about are the various tests that they are conducting regarding the coronavirus. Sunlight and UV light have the best direct effect on the virus.

You will also hear – FROM HIM – that they are testing disinfectants that are readily available, which included bleach and isopropyl alcohol.

Trump comes to the podium afterwards and is commenting on what Mr. Bryan had presented, in which he mentioned disinfectants – which is what everyone is talking about. There's also a short section around the 49 minute mark when a reporter asked him about it.



I just think it's disgusting to purposely skew what's true for political purposes when we should be using all of our efforts to nullify the effects of the virus.

We have to understand that Trump can do no right for some people. If he doesn't heed the scientists - he's terrible. Here, he listens to what the scientists are saying and makes comments - and he is taken out of context, and he is terrible.
Did you miss "non-porous surfaces"? Do you know what that is?

57,000 Americans are dead within a 2 month period with many more at risk and Trump thinks that its a great time to try out "jokes" at an information briefing on a deadly virus that has caused a worldwide pandemic.

However, we all know that Trump wasn't "jjoking"

No matter how you slice it. Trump's incompetence was on full display
