During a coronavirus task force press briefing, President Trump suggested radical, and unproven treatment options for covid-19. Dr. Ester Choo tells MSNBC’s Ari Melber she is “actually worried” about what action the general public take after hearing Trump’s advice. Choo adds it was “remarkable” for Trump to spread an unproved medical message “on national TV, with so many impressionable people watching.” Aired on 04/23/2020.

Medical Expert 'Worried' About Trump After Bizarre Question On Injecting Disinfectant | MSNBC
Hey, If soap kills the virus, then why not eat a bar of soap?
Sounds logical to me.
Sheri Nah you are really uninformed it would appear. It’s a lack of science literacy like yours that Trump suffers from. It has has led to him making these ridiculous suggestions like high intensity UV light inside the body and injecting disinfectant. And no, these are not ideas to explore, because they have already been explored and discarded as lethal long ago.
@alivation what are you talkin about? Am I serious. Are you serious.??? Alive
@TeflonDon or thats just a NATURAL REACTION to a world wide pandemic. NOOO MUST BE MADE UP.
🤭
@Twitchy arms it breaks it down.
“Impressionable people.” That was a diplomatic way to say “idiots.”
Trump supporters are as “impressionable” as it gets. But I’m all for them drinking Lysol, talk about making America great, that would do it.
@Jesse Parsh We Trump supporters aren’t worried about us drinking Lysol. Remember it was a Democrat who thought it was okay to drink aquarium cleaner. Speaking of being impressionable, it’s the left that continues to use MSNBC as their only news source. They ignore Biden’s #me too moment while convicting Kavanaugh as soon as the allegation is put out. They ignore the FISA abuse and the three year attempted coup by Obama’s FBI and DOJ. They ignore the excellent management and advice given by the Trump administration and focus on the bluster Trump is infamous for. We focus on his deeds while you politically weaponize his speech. We would never hope that you drink Lysol.
@Painter Mike he said disinfectant, what disinfectant do you think he meant?.
James Lovell – “idiots” for sure. I call them slaves.
Hush! Those idiots could be in inbred relatives.
Somebody has to do something. The pattern is evident. Article 25 must be activated.
I can’t decide if Trump is stupid or insane. Oh well I guess he can be both.
Mark Hepworth before the China virus the American economy had constantly broken all record highs. Employment for black and Latino community’s where also a record high. He’s taken on the Chinese who have been ripping off countries technology for decades just to let them access certain parts of their economy thus resulting in China going to the negotiating table. Whilst renegotiating trade with numerous other countries No one has been able to do that. He’s the only president to not only meet with Kim jong un but to also step foot in North Korea easing a dangerous situation. No else has come close to that I could go on if you would like. TDS at its finest..
Mary Ellis you have Biden that the best that can come up with out of millions of people 👍
Buddy Ratcliff Bernie and Biden they sound like they should be on the muppet show.
@Doug E Idiots are admitted to Wharton college , my bad
Wharton college is full of those
I had to rewind three times the part of the press briefing where trump asked if maybe disinfectant could be injected… I thought my ears were deceiving me!!
NOPE AND JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT HE COULDN’T SAY SOMETHING MORE STUPID THEN THE LAST TIME HE OPENED HIS MOUTH .. SURPRISE !!!!
Same here!
Trump is now saying he was being sarcastic.
@jotunn dodge I’m not surprised
What can you expect from a FAKE PRESIDENT?
He’s not fake trump has done more than any other president.the money we get want do us no good when we want have food to buy or toliet paper the bible says we will have money but can’t buy nothing the end is here
sharon hill Yeah he’s done a fine job of killing people ,wrecking the economy all cause of his arrogance and stupidity.
@Ray Gomez he’s not the one that has killed people and he’s the one that has helped us out with the money not the democrats. Read your bible
I know Trump wants to make America whiter, but telling people to drink bleach is beyond the pale.
@Kenny Armstrong Kenny (can I call you Kenny) Remember when you were little and your Mom warned you about poisons and put them out of reach! She new right! How in the f-ing world did the president of the USA not know lol a self proclaimed GENIUS!
Stupid
Stone123 Nima : How low must Trump’s IQ be to suggest it in the first place?
If trump’s IQ is that low and he is president,how low must your’s be!
ILL Skillz only when I lose
The US doesn’t need enemies, the enemy is within, it’s called their “President”
@tom tesoro And the USA is part of it so your point?
True
The real enemies are capitalism and corruption.
@dennis bryan my “point’ was your misunderstanding
@Imaculata IF ONLY USA citizens could understand this simple fact, BUT it is impossible since 60 years of propaganda ( from primary school to university) THE MYTH of USA ‘superiority’ as an economy was the ‘myth’ which kept the ‘sheep’ voting for their own eventual destruction.. unemployment, poverty, lack of medical cover, lack of housing ( for all) cost of education.. ALL ‘myths’ that this system would work ‘for all’ when in fact its was an unravelling system for the majority BUT an enriching system for the 1% which has NOW shown itself to be ‘evident’ and destructive even while the 1% try valiantly to defend it.. ( share prices going up, while unemployment explodes..)
Anyone can run now for president of the United States. Brains are not needed…
OOOOOOO ME PICK ME PICK ME !!1
And the Dems prove that every 4 years…lol
They were never needed
My dog wants to be a president of United States, he thinks his stupidity is better than trump
Alex Huyghe 😂😂😳
People who take medical advice from the Orange Toad deserve the outcome, warts and all.
It cures warts too! 😆
i’m just worried of little kids taking his advice.
Let’s just call it. The man is mentally ill. I guess that’s way his supporters like him so much.
@the dude you didnt vote, thats why trump is in charge and affecting your life
@Irunwitha hatchet you know what I find fault in the right and left hate them both. Trump doesn’t run peoples lives you simpleton. Did Trump call you nup and tell you what to do this morning. I would’ve voted For Sanders if he was in it. I voted for Obama was the only time I voted he went soft.
@the dude the difference betwen the right vs the left, you found the right is wrong with your eyes and ears, you found the left wrong because the right told you so and not because you saw it, think about that..
@Irunwitha hatchet if only it were that simple lmao
@the dude it’s that simple, wake up
“Just Drink Bleach!! Whatve you got to loose?”
Trump probably…
No no. You’re supposed to INJECT bleach into your lungs. Cause that’s where the virus does a tremendous number.
Trump should be our first test case.
@Kathryn Shaw He Should be the first, middle AND last. ! WHAT does he have to lose??? It would be funny were it not so extremely sad.
@Joyce Hewett – it certainly would be a definitive test case. The Senate would no longer be on the hook for a legitimate Impeachment Trial either.
Elect a REALITY TV HOST as President and now we’re on “SURVIVOR”
Plot twist the contestants will DIE FOR REAL
Let’s face it. The guy is a game show host and he no business being president of the United States.
Funny and incredibly sad at the same time
C’mon…..you don’t mean that.
@Colt Seavers americans made their bed
Let them lie on it
Trump has finally lost it. He no longer can deal with common sense and reality.
Trump is a good man…He hates muslims and your country requires that view point…
Dust off the “Twenty-fifth Amendment” Inability to
discharge the Powers and Duties “cuckoo cuckoo cuckoo”
Somebody swap the Nuclear button for a doorbell while he’s in charge.
nah it takes more than one person to launch a nuke so we’re safe
He has a Diet Coke button doesn’t he?
KELLYANNE CONWAY should be the first person to try this theory !!! Then Florida governor RON DESANTIS..
This guy makes George W Bush look like an astrophysicist lol
…Junior you mean. The old Bush looks like a new Einstein compared to Trump.
Trump is part of a vast right wing conspiracy to make W look like the second worst president in history.
Don t criticize our chosen ars. Hole like that. He was born stupid and immoral.
I almost miss Bush, right now, to be honest.
@Michelle Smith Trump is part of a vast right wing conspiracy to make W Bush the second worst president in history. 9/11 parallels Trump’s response in many ways.
Since the virus is a bug, let’s try “RAID”.
Apply….. your body… with Raid, as it would knock out the virus, in less than a minute? So that could be……… a possible cure….. for the virus, itself….
-Donald .J Trump, 2020
Why doesn’t he try it 1st then we will see how it goes
Night Angel 👼…I’d suggest a nice cold 🥶 Clorox Enema for Trumpy….I’d love to see and hear him yelling…” oh… it burns 🥵 it burns”!
