President Trump told reporters Monday that he has been taking hydroxychloroquine for about a week and a half and that the White House physician knows he is taking the anti-malaria drug despite the fact he continues to test negative for the coronavirus.


So he waited until after the bad study results emerged to start taking it? That seems about right...

Let me see if I got this straight. He's so worried about getting the contagious virus that he's taking a drug that hasn't been proven to prevent the virus while encouraging people to stop social distancing. He also refuses to wear a mask. Makes sense.

Now we'll be back to seeing more idiots trying to get prescriptions for it.

There it is. You just knew it had nothing to do with his aids taking a dog for a walk.



Apparently it had nothing to do with that either.

Of course, Mr. Linick was actually an Obama NOMINEE who happened to be confirmed by the Senate via a voice vote. And if he should have been fired earlier, why did you wait nearly four years to do it?

No way he has ever taken a single dose of that drug. Fauci or Birx probably had a label printed up and filled the bottle with sugar pills or something.

If he has, he is even dumber than we already think he is.

He’s lying simply to be able to say he’s right about it’s effectiveness. Incredible.
On a scale of 1 to Chris Brown, how pissed is he?

regular Doc who goes on Fox from the NY/NJ area says Trump is smart to take rando meds because.

Maybe she really hates him.

Pelosi is concerned about Trump taking the drug because of his age group and his weight group which she called morbidly obese. Sigh.

They reported him at 243 after his last physical. I have trouble believing that.

Oh he's definitely clinically morbidly obese. It's just going to be all Fox news talks about for a month now.

CNN wrote:Look, he's a high quality person, Mike. He's a very high quality, he's a very brilliant guy," Trump told reporters at the 'White House after he was asked whether he was concerned that Pompeo might have requested the watchdog's ouster to halt the investigations.
"And now I have you telling me about dog walking, washing dishes and, you know what, I'd rather have him on the phone with some world leader than have him wash dishes because maybe his wife isn't there or his kids aren't there, you know," Trump said.


well that does it. Every appointee should have his own tax payer funded indentured servants!

The Justice Department on Monday moved to drop its case against 13 Russian nationals and three Russian entities who were indicted as part of the former special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russia's interference in the 2016 US election.

Just wish one of the faces of our party wouldn't call the president fat on national television. Not sure what it accomplished. She isn't great sometimes.

I thought the last insurgency against her was ridiculous, but she hasn’t been good during the pandemic. But who’s next? Hoyer and Clyburn are old. Luján is running for Senate. Bustos and Jeffries are hard no thank yous for me.
