Trump comments prompt doctors, and Lysol, to warn against injecting disinfectants

Allyson Chiu, Katie Shepherd, Brittany Shammas - April 24, 2020

After a presentation Thursday that touched on the disinfectants that can kill the novel coronavirus on surfaces and in the air, President Trump pondered whether those chemicals could be used to fight the virus inside the human body.

“I see the disinfectant that knocks it out in a minute, one minute,” Trump said during Thursday’s coronavirus press briefing. “And is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside, or almost a cleaning? Because you see it gets inside the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so it would be interesting to check that.”

The question, which Trump offered unprompted, immediately spurred doctors, lawmakers and the makers of Lysol to respond with incredulity and warnings against injecting or otherwise ingesting disinfectants, which are highly toxic.

“My concern is that people will die. People will think this is a good idea,” Craig Spencer, director of global health in emergency medicine at New York-Presbyterian/Columbia University Medical Center, told The Washington Post. “This is not willy-nilly, off-the-cuff, maybe-this-will-work advice. This is dangerous.”

...

That’s when he asked about injecting an unspecified disinfectant into the lungs of covid-19 patients. He also raised the possibility of using light to combat the viral infection and suggested consulting medical doctors with these questions.

“So, supposing we hit the body with a tremendous, whether it’s ultraviolet or just very powerful light — and I think you said that hasn’t been checked but you’re going to test it,” Trump said to Bryan. “And then, I said, supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way.”

...

Some lawmakers also expressed alarm. During an NPR interview on Friday morning, Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) described the president as “a quack medicine salesman.”

“We seem to have a quack medicine salesman on television," he said. “He’s talking about things like disinfectant in the lungs.”

The senator added: “We need real focus in the White House on what needs to be done. Instead of talking about disinfectant the president should be talking about how he’s going to implement testing, which every expert says is the quickest path to get us moving again.”

Home Alone at the White House: A Sour President, With TV His Constant Companion

Katie Rogers and Annie Karni - April 24, 2020

...

The daily White House coronavirus task force briefing is the one portion of the day that Mr. Trump looks forward to, although even Republicans say that the two hours of political attacks, grievances and falsehoods by the president are hurting him politically.

Mr. Trump will hear none of it. Aides say he views them as prime-time shows that are the best substitute for the rallies he can longer attend but craves.

Mr. Trump rarely attends the task force meetings that precede the briefings, and he typically does not prepare before he steps in front of the cameras. He is often seeing the final version of the day’s main talking points that aides have prepared for him for the first time although aides said he makes tweaks with a Sharpie just before he reads them live. He hastily plows through them, usually in a monotone, in order to get to the question-and-answer bullying session with reporters that he relishes.

...

“I don’t take responsibility at all,” Mr. Trump told White House correspondents in answer to one question.

'Mark my words': Biden predicts Trump will try to postpone election

Mike Brest - April 24, 2020

Former Vice President Joe Biden predicted that President Trump will try to delay the 2020 presidential election.

Biden, while speaking at a virtual fundraiser on Thursday evening, said the president would try to postpone the election because "that's the only way he thinks he can possibly win."

"Mark my words: I think he is going to try to kick back the election somehow; come up with some rationale why it can't be held," Biden said. "Imagine threatening not to fund the post office. Now, what in God's name is that about? Other than trying to let the word out that he's going to do all he can to make it very hard for people to vote. That's the only way he thinks he can possibly win."

The coronavirus pandemic has sparked a debate over mail-in voting and absentee ballots as states are ordering people not to leave their home and primaries are canceled.

Only Colorado, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, and Utah conduct their elections entirely by mail. More than half of states allow voters to participate in elections via absentee ballots without needing an explanation.

Trump has expressed concern about large-scale mail-in voting, arguing it has "tremendous potential for voter fraud, and for whatever reason, doesn't work out well for Republicans."

Biden later promised, “You can be assured, between [Trump] and the Russians, there is going to be an attempt to interfere."

I'm going to admit something:
Biden was not my first pick; he's just another
old white man to me. However, if we want to get
this nightmare of a lying sack of shit out of
office, we must VOTE BLUE.

NO MATTER WHO!
