3 in heels don't make you 3 in taller. Regardless Justin Trudeau IS 6'2. Does Trump look taller than Trudeau?

No, I'm suggesting that if you want to bring up who's getting rich off of which c19 therapies, that conversation is probably not going to turn out the way you want or expect it to.

Doctors around the world are seeing that it's effective for many patients. Are they all Trump devotees who don't know what they're doing?

Have you just not been exposed to the information, or did you simply reject it for emotional/political reasons?

There's nothing ridiculous about it, at all. It's actually quite prudent for the President of the United States to be using a drug which can prohibit the virus from taking hold, especially when you consider that people in the White House have tested positive.

And where did you get your sweepingly unfounded opinion from???. Guess you pulled it out of the air. Pure anecdotal. "Doctors around the world....." There have been NO scientific studies yet proving this drug acts as a prophylaxis for Covid19. So until there are i think you should be more circumspect in touting a drug which also can come with serious side-effects. I guess you just ignore those things also.

False. The doctor wrote a memo:

"After numerous discussions....we concluded the potential benefit from treatment outweighed the relative risks."

Note he did not specifically say that he prescribed hydroxychloroquine or that Trump was taking it. Now why would he phrase it that way?

Personally I don't care one way or the other, but that was also my gut reaction when Trump announced he was on HCQ - he's lying.

1) Trump lies about everything
2) He's transparent as a 5 year old. It's so easy to tell when hes lying.

How much money will Bernard Marcus co-founder of Home Depot contribute to the Trump campaign for Donald's stunt?

I've already addressed this. You are the one who is actually wrong, Leo. What is truly remarkable is the confidence in the absolute belief that you are right. Now, are you gonna have the stones to admit you were wrong or are you going to slink off, quit talking about it, and move on to a new leftist talking point?

Good points.

Trump will lie to back up a previous position that makes him look discredited. He could easily be lying.

Lying about taking it vs actually taking it and revealing that fact both have the same public effect. If he wants us to think he is taking it the truth really doesn't matter.

I still think there is a money trail.

A lot of this stuff is made in India and imported by the major drug companies. It could be Modi is connected with some pharmaceutical producers and Trump is doing this for them. Not just that but the other possibilities are numerous. With Trump it usually involves money or favors which ultimately lead to financial gains further down the line.
