Idk about you but i tend to hold people in leadership positions to a higher standard with how they communicate, communication is 90% of their job

How would you feel if you found out ghot injected himself with bleach and died?

We should have a higher bar.

I would feel bad that he died. I would not blame Trump for his stupidity though.

It's fine to criticize his foolishness. I think his optimism is a good thing even if he lacks common sense on the issue.

Just wait a second. Lol
I am not now, or would I ever feel the need to inject bleach into my blood veins. So let's use a different example.



As for that video I linked in post #4302... if you watch it carefully, Bill Bryan was listing discoveries they had made concerning covid-19. IMO, Trump was attempting to "ask" if there would be further testing of those discoveries.
Granted, he made it sound idiotic, but I do think, he was asking if there would be human trials.

I think Trump was trying to say: Those discoveries are great, will the information we gleaned from them, aid us in helping to eradicate covid-19. I really don't think that Trump thinks, that injecting bleach would be a good idea.

Then again...I don't spend my days, ripping apart every sentence he utters, looking for something to hang him with. So maybe I'm a bit less biased in this instance.
I realized long ago that Trump was never gonna win any awards for his communication skills, so I tend to take what he says with a grain of salt, and try to deduce what he "meant" to say.

I know a fucking genius who spent his days saying there will be 20k death max while posting anti-democratic party memes.

No... you know a poster that said HE thought it would be 20k deaths. There is obviously no way to KNOW how many deaths there would be. We are still no wheres near the initial predictions of 200k deaths.

But then again, there was no way to know then, that the CDC was sending out faulty test kits either.

14% is pretty impressive. Not near enough for herd immunity, but it's a good sign of the virus not being as fatal as we feared.

i'm happy that when i predicted 50k-100k US deaths from the initial wave i was correct, and also at the same time happy that preventative steps and caution helped make it so. there were too many people at the same time doubting number of deaths while also doubting if we should take preventative steps.

It doesn't even give a date for when the trials are starting other than 'before the end of April'.

Oxford University started theirs yersterday.

You are factually incorrect, just own upto it and move on instead of being a disingenuous fraud.

Questions also remain as to whether testing positive for antibodies means a person has achieved immunity, he said.

I guess this is pretty clear these people could have the Antibodies before the infection?

Translation: "I just had a brainfart, let the doctors look into it and find out if it was really just a brainfart or if there's more to it".

If anything, this was billionaire syndrome on full display. An ordinary person has used bleach at some point during his/her life, read the health warnings on the bottle and knows that the stuff is toxic and not suitable for injection.


trumptards be like:

- he's absolutely right
- some "experts" share his opinion
- he was probably joking
- he was deliberately trying to trigger the media / the left
- his insane ideas just demonstrate that he cares
- as a billionaire he can't possibly know that
<-- we are here
- he never even said that
