f***ing indefensible. This is about lives. Not red. Not blue. But lives.
All he f***ing cares about is getting re-elected. No matter the cost.

The lies. The documented and debunked lies. How can those be ignored or defended?
A disgrace. Day after day. Disgrace.

Even ignoring the statements, misstatements, backtracking, blatant lies and everything else, just let what he said sink in. Can we inject light or alcohol or bleach into the body. Given he was touting hydroxychloroquine and some idiots started using fish tank cleaner because it was similar, how long before some other morons start injecting bleach? Seriously. It's irresponsible and flat out dangerous to say things on a stage that large and not expect the stupid in this country to not do this themselves.

he is a danger to this country. No other way to put it. They are all corrupt and tainted to a variety of extremes in my opinion. But for the first time in my life I see a clear danger to my country.
Unfit to hold office.

Trump's cholorquine push came after talk with supporter, source says

WASHINGTON — A top Health and Human Services official who said he was transferred from his post for pushing back on “efforts to fund potentially dangerous drugs promoted by those with political connections” felt pressured to rush access to chloroquine treatments for coronavirus after President Donald Trump had a conversation about it with a mega-rich donor, a source close to the doctor told NBC News.

Dr. Rick Bright said he was instructed to implement a national program aimed at expanding access to the drug without proper controls in place and despite the lack of peer-reviewed clinical data on the drug's effectiveness following a conversation Trump had with Oracle Chairman Larry Ellison, the source said.


Ellison sits on the White House economic recovery task force and is one of the president’s top supporters in the tech industry. The billionaire also hosted a big-money fundraiser for Trump at his home in Rancho Mirage, Calif., in February.

The president has repeatedly touted hydroxychloroquine as a potential "game changer" in the battle against the coronavirus.
The New York Times reported on April 6 that “Mr. Trump first expressed interest in hydroxychloroquine a few weeks ago, telling associates that Mr. Ellison, a billionaire and a founder of Oracle, had discussed it with him.” Oracle is also reportedly working with the federal government on an online platform to track the effectiveness of off-label drugs used to combat COVID-19.

So many of the deaths right now are in seniors and special care homes, where once the virus enters a facility staff and residents quickly catch it. Surely we can figure out how to protect these people, assuming there is a lull between peaks and the system can catch it's breath. Frankly it seems that once an outbreak happens at these homes, that so many staff test positive so fast that adequate staffing and services collapse, so in addition to Covid residents are dealing with unsanitary conditions, and even starvation for those who can't feed themselves. Just horrific, we need to do better with our seniors.

only the best people....


The Reuters report added that the 37-year-old aide has "no formal education in public health, management, or medicine." Harrison had a variety of stints working for then-Vice President Dick Cheney, the Department of Defense, and a D.C. public-relations company, before running what his HHS bio describes as "a small business in Texas." That business, evidently, was Dallas Labradoodles.
Harrison parlayed that experience into a prominent role on Azar's team at the Department of Health and Human Services, becoming what HHS described as "a key manager of the HHS virus response."
