You know how you see a commercial for an over the counter product where they say their product is shown to treat a specific issue and then at the end of the commercial they say “this product is not intended to treat any medical condition”. That’s what I think of when I hear Trump talk.Pretty consistent for me and he 99% of the time defers to Birx and Fauci.Not a surprise. I have learned a lot. Particularly with the new treatments and PPP.This post shows your bias and illogic. His daily press conferences are must see TV for knowledge as he has Dr. Birx and Dr. Fauci there as well. You have lost all credibility here.Yes, he has has pretty much mishandled everything. His only saving grace has been the "deep state bureaucracies". He would be doing much better politically if he would shut up and let the experts do the talking. His rambling, often off topic, diatribes are not helping.SighWe do not have years. The virus is here and killing people daily. His response and daily briefings have been excellent and his approval ratings reflect that.Democrats are going to be in for a very rude awakening in the short term when hydroxychloroquine or a named branded derivative/concoction with azythromycin(e.g. Percocet) ends up being the go to drug. It is almost there now, they just don't know it because they keep watching the MSM and the lefties. Trump said it and they hate it. It is that simple. God forbid it got American back to work before the Democrats could get the amount of economic damage(and disinformation) they need to even have a chance in the upcoming election.
More and more research is showing not only its efficacy as a form of treatment, but the mechanism by which it is working. The good thing is that even the Democrats can't control this world-wide research. The entire world isn't as interested in getting at Trump at all costs, including dragging their feet with regards to this drug.
No Democrat anywhere is opposing doctors using these drugs if they are effective and recommended as a course of treatment. Widespread approval for distribution will take years of clinical trials, research, and data. But the Trump supporters see the distribution of this drug as their shot from beyond the arc to save Trump's re-election chances. Forgetting at the same time that voters this fall will be judging him on his response to the virus. Which was abysmal.
Yeah they do...
Poll: Majority of Americans now disapprove of federal coronavirus efforts, Trump’s handling of crisis
Politico is Fake News
Yes, we know. Anything that does not praise your dear leader, your lord and master, is "fake news". Except it's not. It's actual news on the actual mishandling by this faking it administration.
He didn't mishandle anything. Blame your precious bureaucracies for anything you didn't like. He was following their cue.
Ive watched a few. I haven’t learned anything. Trump’s participation in them is completely superfluous. He speaks with very little confidence.
I wouldn’t listen to anything Trump says about treatments. His statements do not reflect the evidence available. When I hear him speak, his rhetoric is all over the map. It has very little internal consistency.
What those commercials actually say is they are not recommending their product in place of a doctor. Neither is the President. He is not saying you must take it, not saying to buy it off the street, not saying it's a substitute for your doctors advice. All he is saying is that it has shown promising results, and perhaps YOUR doctor should consider it for your treatment in the unfortunate situation you contract this virus.
Trump is dramatically overstating the evidence in support of hydroxychloroquine which he isn’t really qualified to evaluate anyway. In other cases he’s making up evidence whole cloth (zinc).
Those commercials are having it both ways. Saying this probably works but we don’t know if it works. Trump is doing the same thing. People believe Trump when they say it works, there’s evidence, good evidence or promising results.
It’s doublespeak. He’s been doing it for a long time.
How many patients has he prescribed it to?
