    1. @mark ashman Well said! But Americans dont know what dettol is lol. I miss the smell when cleaning my house. I think I will see if I can get some on Amazon.

    2. Gedi Steve these clowns out here don’t believe it should be that way for some god forsaken reason,they put illegal immigrants over American citizens,TREASONOUS

    1. Was he was certainly lying, because he said it was a sarcastic response to a reporter’s question, and not a single reporter had asked a question yet when he made that absurd suggestion at the presser.

    1. Carsten S. Me too!!! I did not vote for her- but I now officially apologize for not realizing what a good leader she is. I am a doctor, and I am so so so grateful that I don‘t have to live this nightmare like my colleagues in the USA, GB, etc.
      Stay strong 💪 everyone 🍀🍀🍀

    2. @Mike Francis UK sucks !
      The Prime minister and the royalty caught the virus. Maybe the queen too. Everything is quiet in the palace. A good pandemic managed crisis country should have death not into thousands. If it’s five digits, something is seriously wrong with crisis managements.

    1. No, this is a global emergency. Now is not the time for sarcasm, jokes, or rash choices. Not that I give the benefit of the doubt to realize those were awful plans before the backlash.

    2. The worst part is his trash base thinks “I was just pretending to be stupid to see how you would react” is a both a viable excuse and a good characteristic for a leader to have (neither are true obviously but good luck convincing a trump supporter otherwise). They truly are a lost cause.

    1. @Heathen S you’re not just stupid…you’re also Def Drinking to much Disinfectant lately😂

    2. If you heard Trump saying you should inject bleach, then maybe you should. Your comprehension of language appears to be quite lacking.

  1. Trump was trying to be the weatherman with his Sharpie,
    Now he’s trying to be a Doctor, and a bad one at that.

    1. @Baz Write LMMFAO Trump has already won slick. His poll numbers if anything are up. #walkaway. #metoobiden. # blexit. #trump2020. #trump46jr

    1. @krisna Sanchez stupets?!?! Really…….. listen good……. Do you here that……..the useless generation hard at work. …….fired

    2. The theories are not so far off, although the word detergent may have not bee right.
      Injecting detergents, lets just change that the chemicals. This would be as stupid of a theory as lets say….. Chemotherapy. And yes Chemo was researched a while back for use against HIV, another Corona type virus.
      For inhaling things into the lungs, well that is funny MSN removed the link, but you can use a solution of hydrogen peroxide in a nebulizer. But here is another link:

    3. @Nelson Perez as he did say sarcasm I cannot, but what was put put is not far off. The wording was a bit off though.

  2. Trump in 2018: “I’m a stable genius 🦸‍♂️”
    Trump Feb 28: “It’s like the flu; a hoax 🤪”
    Trump Today: “Drink disinfectants 🧴”

    1. Yeah trust me he can keep screaming fake news!! fake news!!! but people are starting use his own words against him it’s crazy!!

    1. th only reason lysol had to do anything was because the media lied and said he said lysol. the president never brought up any such thing. did you even watch the briefing? he never mentioned lysol.

      but also, alcohol (ethanol, a disinfectant) is already used in vapour form inhaled into the lungs as a effective treatment of pulmonary adema, fluid in the lungs, aka pneumonia and could possibly be effective as disinfecting the patient airways at the same time, doctors are looking into the efficacy of it.

    2. Graeme Evans where did the media say that? They actually showed the full video of Trumps speech. Trump said its interesting to try injecting disinfectant.
      Wtf are you talking about??? I am a doctor on ICU for 20 years, and I have never ever heard of anyone suggesting to inhale ethanol. That’s mad. We have a common disinfectant that contains 99% ethanol. And inhaling this is a common CAUSE of pulmonary edema, not a cure, oh my god!!!!
      Seems you get things wrong like your president.
      Please fact check what you are saying. Thank you…
      Stay safe 🍀

    3. @Mathilde Wesendonck These Trump supporters will twist reality and facts anyway they can not to lose face and to protect their fuhrer. They are blinded by Trumps cult and will believe his lies no matter what he says or does. The Germans did the same in the 30’s.

    4. @Marc R give me a link to the video with the timecode of where trump even so much as said the word lysol. I’m not even american. I couldnt give a crap about “supporting trump”. But im concerned about the media outright lying to the worod and people like you believing them and parroting their lies
      Prove he even said the word lysol.

    5. Facts Matter “I do not always drink bleach containing beverages, but when I do, I prefer Lysol.”

      Stay thirsty, my friends.

      Sincerely, the Most Interesting Man in the World

    1. Hey, if you want a President that knows how to complete a sentence, stay away from Biden. That guy can’t even complete a blink.

    2. @Joe Paleface You mean he has racked up more debt than the last five presidents. You are stupid. I wish trump would not talk at all, like forever. 98 % of media is not owned by the left,. Mr Murdoch owns a crapload of news outlets here in the U.S.

    3. Interesting comment. I find it very hard to determine what you are insinuating here. Are you saying that Trump is an illiterate moron who can’t string together complete sentences; or are you saying the media are a bunch of frauds who take this out of context and quote half sentences in order to misrepresent what people are saying, and thus never quote a complete sentence from Trump. Either way, both statements are probably true, if somewhat hyperbolic.

    1. @Dwight Cook like you forgot to take your disinfectant today & if you did take some more.
