Asking for a friend.
If Trump says to drink plenty of fluids and I die from drinking brake fluid would that be his fault?
Trump touted chloroquine as a likely cure and encouraged people to try it, and one couple in a vulnerable age bracket, unable to secure a prescription for chloroquine without a medical justification, turned to a cleaning product that contains chloroquine (the same form- chloroquine phosphate) as its primary ingredient.
But yeah I guess if you spin the analogy that heavily it does make Trump sound blameless, doesn't it?
Maybe the president shouldn't be recommending people go out and get unproven drugs, let alone portraying them as a guaranteed countermeasure to an ongoing epidemic.

But Trump is a: obviously a moron and b: prone to denying he ever said whatever it was when he says the exact opposite two days later.
Why would anyone listen to a word he says?

Different Note, Kushner is a remarkably horrible individual. It looks more and more like he exploit's Trump's shortcomings to his own advantage.

Trump turned down WHO test kits for corona because the Kushners own Oscar Health, the company that has now been given the contact to supply the tests. Though Jareds name was on the company as co owner, with his brother Joshua, it has now been removed.
Anyone else notice how bizarrely frequently it's the family members of congressmen, politicians, and high level bureaucrats who just "coincidentally" win the contracts from the government?

Now this, at least, is Washington as usual.

A lot of people are about to die, and I already know that Trump and his supporters are going to find some way to blame it on medical experts and the left.

It's gonna be all Obama's fault by the time all this is said and done.
Also, it seems that Trump is trying to distance Washington from this mess, leaving it almost solely on the individual states to procure ventilators for their hospitals and whatnot. I imagine he's doing this to avoid blame when the shit has properly hit the fan in another couple of weeks.
It must be working, because Trump is currently enjoying the highest ratings he's had practically since he took the presidency.
Meanwhile, we're about 2 days away from being the first country to hit a 6 digit infection tally.

In other news, which has gone completely unreported by the media, Joe Biden is accused of that one thing that we were all told should end a Presidential run.
Grabbing a woman by the pussy - against her will. And then telling her she is nothing, to him.
Former Biden staffer Tara Reade states: “And then his hands were on me and underneath my clothes. And yeah, and then he went — he went down my skirt but then up inside it, and he penetrated me with his fingers.”
Reade has been told by her wanting to talk about the alleged assault is doing the (

In these financial circumstances you'd have to think the odds are slim for Trump, but Hunter Biden's dad is such a soft target that he could only win out of sympathy.

These are our chosen leaders. We deserve what we get.
