Trumps disinfectant claim has caused people to poison themselves

Although President Donald Trump said that he was only being “sarcastic” when he mused on April 23 that injecting household disinfectants could possibly cure coronavirus, poison control centers have since reported spikes in people ingesting bleach and other disinfectants.

Barely 18 hours after Trump’s public statement, the New York City Poison Control Center received more than double its usual amount of calls including nine people who had Lysol exposure, 10 who had bleach exposure, and 11 who had exposure to other household cleaners. “Exposure” in this case means a dangerous contact that potentially threatens a person’s health or well being

Though none of the calls reportedly resulted in death or hospitalization, poisonings from household disinfectants were already on the rise during the epidemic, partly due to children experimenting at home and adults trying to disinfect their living spaces.

I always knew Trumpf was stupid and utterly dishonest.

This is the first time I have genuinely felt there is something wrong with his brain.

How humiliating it must be to devote countless hours of one's life on an obscure message board defending and running cover for Trumpf.

Being a Christian means being honest with yourself and with others.

There is no way you genuinely believe Trump was trying to crack a clever, sarcastic joke.

You know that Trump is a stupid, fat man. And that his stupidity and lack of mental clarity are the reasons for his disinfectant comments

THIS is the first time you "genuinely felt there is something wrong with his brain."

Well, first of all, welcome to the club.

I personally felt that way during the campaign, after I got done laughing and realized he was serious.

a lot of his comments I felt I could chalk up to him being just extremely stupid.

But speculating on national TV about treating COVID infected people with Lysol just defies the boundaries of any normal thought process.

Didn't surprise me at all.

It's right up his BS alley!

He's been that way his whole life, always trying to put his spin on anything, and/or capitalize on any publicity he can. His game is to say provocative stuff to get free PR.

A total publicity hound.

After 911, he actually went down to the street, found a reporter, and claimed that he was 'bringing in workers' to aid in the rescue and recovery efforts, that he had already 'brought in 100 workers' and that he was soon 'bringing in 200 more workers.' Big problem with THAT! There are no records of any pay stubs, transportation, witnesses, or quotes from ANY workers who said they participated in this being paid by him. Never let a good crisis go to waste...

Who in their right mind would drink or inject cleaning chemicals (except a stupid liberal millennial)?
