In the middle of a press briefing on Sunday, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and the government’s top infectious disease expert, tried to answer a question about whether an anti-malaria drug, hydroxychloroquine, could be an effective treatment for Covid-19. Trump has continuously touted the drug in public despite the fact that there is no conclusive proof of its usefulness and plenty of evidence of its harmful side effects. His heedless quackery threatens to kill thousands.
The last thing Trump wanted was for Fauci to tell the truth while standing next to him in front of the press, so Trump blocked him from answering the question and attacked reporters for asking about it. “You don’t have to ask the question again,” Trump told a reporter, while complaining that Fauci had already talked about the anti-malarial drug “15 times.”
Fauci has tried hard over the last few weeks to avoid directly contradicting Trump, particularly in official press briefings. He has instead used alternative media interviews — including a popular online chat with NBA star Stephen Curry — to try to get the truth out.
Yet the fact that Fauci must stand by and let Trump spout dangerous misinformation shows how Trump’s purges have intimidated the remaining professionals inside the government.

We live in an era of no conclusive proof justifying any of the actions.
I have far less problem with Trump trying to calm a public who is borderline full panic mode with hope that there is existing treatment for another illness that can help here.
How is that dangerous?
Don't bring up the "Trump Supporter" who got sick and her husband that died because they drank fish tank cleaner. That's fake news. She's got FEC reciepts up her ass donating to Hillary Clinton and the DNC, and she was charged with domestic abuse toward her husband which, less face it, must have been something pretty fucking terrible in America for a woman to actually get that charge.
She murdered her husband, than drank just enough of it to get sick herself. Then she claimed she was a Trump supporter and the shill Lefty media ran with that story without bothering or even caring to check if any of what she was saying was true.
Don't drink bleach, don't eat Tide Pods, don't medicate yourself with fish shit cleaner.
Do Right, Be Right. :)

Exclusive: Russia collecting intelligence on U.S. supply line failures amid coronavirus crisis, DHS warns
WASHINGTON — Russian spies are likely using the coronavirus pandemic as an opportunity to collect intelligence on U.S. supply lines, which have struggled to provide adequate medical equipment, according to an intelligence report issued earlier this week by the Department of Homeland Security and obtained by Yahoo News.

Trump administration shuttered pandemic monitoring program, then scrambled to extend it
As early indications of China's coronavirus outbreak emerged in late December, the Trump administration notified Congress it would still follow through with its plan to shutter a US Agency for International Development surveillance program tasked with detecting new, potentially dangerous infectious diseases and helping foreign labs stop emerging pandemic threats around the world.

lol
What that article says but doesn't make any attempt to emphasize for its low IQ audience is that the program was still in effect, hence the 6 month extension signed on April 1st.
They were up and running when this all went down. They did a hell of a job, huh?

As early indications of China's coronavirus outbreak emerged in late December, the Trump administration notified Congress it would still follow through with its plan to shutter a US Agency for International Development surveillance program tasked with detecting new, potentially dangerous infectious diseases and helping foreign labs stop emerging pandemic threats around the world.
The administration ultimately backtracked nearly three months later,
But by that time, the coronavirus outbreak had already been declared as a global pandemic by the World Health Organization and had claimed the lives of more than 4,300 people in the US.
The PREDICT program's cancellation and the subsequent scramble to secure an emergency extension reflects the Trump administration's broader pattern of dismantling or downsizing key offices and programs focused on protecting the US from a pandemic, despite multiple warnings in recent years about the need to prepare for such an event.

Trump asked what metrics he's using. See his response.

Opportunists are everywhere, all the time. As unscrupulous as somebody trying to repackage fish tank cleaners might be, they're only successful if idiots on the other end of that are buying it.
In the last 24 hours, I've gotten two really good scam emails. One where a very polite gentleman informed me that while visiting a website reporting on The Coomph that my computer was hacked with malware and offering the suggestion that what he would do in my position is to send $1,900 in bitcoin to his web address so he can fix the issue for me. Another where a pastor who runs one of the largest global charitable organizations picked my email address among tons of others so they can donate money to us directly.
The first one doesn't even make sense to send in an email. Those kinds of threats are generally tied directly to a virus that is installed onto your computer when you download games or other programs from a shady website, and most people who don't know anything about computers end up with a computer that won't do anything they want it to do until they fix it, so they would feel more compelled to take it seriously.
The second one was nearly a word for word script of a scam email that dates back to at least 2012, only slightly modified to put references to The Coomph in it.
There will be people who fall for both of these.
Any dummy who swallows fish cleaner because it happens to have the same name as a malaria drug the President mentioned in a press conference deserves what they get just as much as people who drink bleach because of their medical properties and teenagers who eat Tide Pods to get internet clout.
You're just looking for something else to blame Trump on when the media largely isn't focusing on that right now. Especially at a time where despite the extreme Lefty shill media outlets putting out their worst polling numbers ever Trump still has 45% approval on the aggregate. That number would be higher if a reputable place like Gallup put out more polling too and they were included in the aggregate.
What do you suppose happens to that number once the Stimulus Checks finally go out and unemployment issues are ironed out and that back pay gets cut as well?
You've got millions of Americans out of work right now that haven't gotten money in 3 to 5 weeks and he's still at 45%.
Woopsie!
Do Right, Be Right. :)
