  1. I honestly hope he gets the mother load of the virus! As for hydroxychroroquine I hope and prey he washes it down with a quart of bleach “as per his recommendation”

    1. trump should share his genius ideas with his disgusting sons: dunce junior and eric toe rump

    1. I don’t think so either he actually looks like he is lying, but then he lies so often who can tell?

  2. I don’t believe that trump is taking anything [other than money]. trump is just a L I A R .

    1. Absolutely 100% Correct! He is a pathological liar and would not put himself at risk. Great comment 👍

    2. Irene Gavenlock …the clown’s following the same path as “The Boy Who Cried Wolf”…eventually, people (with an ounce of brain or more), will cease listening to this chronically pathetic pawn. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

    3. @Victor Yeo and don’t forget hamberders! Along with the hydroxy, sounds like a massive coronary on the horizon!

    4. @Monique Ste-Marie the problem is that his cult members have less than an ounce of grey matter. We’re definitely not talking about the intellectual upper-crust!

    1. What do you mean? There is nothing to provide alternatives for. Have you not understood this yet?

    2. If he’s willing to be the first one to test them then that’s fine, I have a bleach jab idea he might like.

  3. …and he only has $1,500 of hydroxychloroquine stock Lmfao wonder how much the rest of his family and friends have?

    1. Why is this news? This medication is the same one that a lot of people in my hospital are recovering with. Stuff has been used for 60 years. I guess they can’t make money off of something that is already patented.

    2. @Keith Remedy – WOW man~How many dosages of disinfectants have you been injecting? Perhaps you need higher potency to dislodge beta amyloid plaques from your neurons?
      Your hospital is located in la la land from an unidentified moukmouk planet in a solar system situated inside your skull.

      We’re so far behind other countries in addressing this pandemic while the cockroach in this White House, so terribly desperate to sell a deadly drug at the expense of our health, ONCE AGAIN the LIAR-IN-CHIEF is pushing hydroxychloroquine sale in an effort to get rid of his cumbersome stockpile pricey/stagnant investment which he can’t return back. Trump’s temperament and imbecilities always seem to take on risky deals based on hypes. This explains 6 bankruptcies after he effectively squandered the fraudulent fortune inherited from his father.

      The conman must have tried various pharmaceuticals that rejected millions of his hydroxychloroquine dead end offer. The drug has proven to be lethal and is contraindicated by the FDA, the NCID, the WHO and the MA. No physician can prescribe it.
      Even if there were sufficient pharmacokinetics, this dangerous drug is not part of any protocol for COVID-19.
      This fake president is such an inadequate cretin; he could walk out with a prize for it.

    3. IMPEACHED TRUMP CANNOT WIN WITHOUT CHEATING Bro you’re talking to someone who isn’t a fan of trump nor voted for him. Apparently you’re to deranged to see things in a clear light or able to have a intelligent conversation. Get outside or do something productive instead of liking your own comments 🤦🏻‍♂️. No one is going to read all that nonsense you posted. I hope you’re not this ignorant in real life, for your sake

    4. IMPEACHED TRUMP CANNOT WIN WITHOUT CHEATING there’s numerous articles on this. Besides West Hills Hospital there is places all over the country and world doing the same. Most places will not give it to someone who has a heart condition. If you ever been to Africa?which I’m going to presume you haven’t. Or been outside the US in general. People take this traveling to other countries were malaria is common as a preemptive measure. Most of the side effect are migrated by a lower dose.

    5. @Keith Remedy you’re right, there are reports it helping to alleviate the virus to a point. But all these reports make it quite clear that it only helps if taken in conjunction with z-pack. And they won’t give it to people with certain preexisting conditions.

  4. Distraction he is trying to distract from something else why don’t the news media see into that look what he is try to hide maybe he don’t want Americans know about the al quida attack or he did not want them to ask him the plan he has to reopening the economy or 90.000 dead

  5. Trump pushes Hydroxychloroquine bc he and his cohorts have interest in its sale. He said this could be a gift from God. He meant for him. He is lying about him taking the drug, just wants his followers to. He says what do you have to loose. …….only your money and your life. I don’t believe one word he utters

    1. There is also the possibility that he asked his sons to invest in the stock market in the company that makes Hydroxychloroquine and will loose a lot of money if the sales of this little pill doesn’t increase. After warning about the efficency of this pills to fight Coronavirus have been disclosed, I find it weird that the President would risks his life and his health without a sign of $ attatched to it. Follow the scientits, maybe we will have an official report soon but wait to find out.

    2. This is the medication that they polled 2thousand plus doctors around the world during this pandemic as the most effective to combat Covid. The news has lost all credibility nowadays. Everything I hear on MSNBC is the opposite of what I’m seeing in my hospital and hearing from everywhere else. Why is it none of the media is talking about personal responsibility and taking preventive measures. Boosting the immune system ect. This is all about red vs blue and money, it’s quite sad

    3. He also purchased and stock piled millions of doses. Needs to sell that off before the public sees what he wasted tax dollars, on instead of purchasing PPE for hospitals.

  6. He’s taking it so he can fake his death to avoid prison.. he knows he’s losing 2020..

    1. Cee I agree I can see him fake his death taking that drug he’s pushing that or making money on it. Cee your on to something. Vote BLUE save america.🇺🇸💙

    1. @Suzy Qualcast Access to media and therefore the masses or access to rx drugs? Either way Space Man is not doing a good job in any way.

    1. 15k DOW : I can take that, back handed compliment. If I, “have the worst TDS of anyone,” that translates into, “You upset me more than anyone.” Thanks 😋

  7. last ditch attempt to make a profit before be dies, gets locked up or makes a run for Russia..

    1. Oh I can picture the whole trump group getting off the plane and Vlad saying
      Strangle the dogs don’t waste the bullets.

  8. dude he’s not taking it but why not straight up ask him why he won’t wear a mask but he would take this drug ? bc it’s a lie

    1. @seth sims 8 years , not a single indictment … not one . Ronnie Reagan had 120 under indictment and Caspar Weinberger heading for jail , Bush 43 two illegal wars , a collapsed economy , wall street crooks in the white house , skooter Libby ,cheney , blackwater … Trump ? 40 years a crook , fraud , money laundering , sexual assault , tax cheating etc etc … Obama ? not . a .single . indictment . not . one

    2. @seth sims you fired by drump.
      Trump is worst person in the history of the United States.
      Forever and ever..
      He’s useless brain in the world.history.
      Trump is useless guy in the human-history.
      Okay? You! Understand?
      He’s not a human/ i means

    3. @seth sims oh and I suppose you know what “obamagate” is all about, or are you just mouthing your orange fuhrer’s babblings! That’s what I thought.

  9. Does anyone really believe this a-hole ??? , what it really comes down to is that we’re talking about the musings of an imbecile and not the fact that he’s firing all the over watchers

  10. He asked the doctor to give him a drug to prevent him from getting a disease he calls a hoax. Is this a bit like treating his imaginary bone spurs?!?

    Isn’t it illegal for a doctor to prescribe a drug for a reason it is not approved for???

  11. It’s pure vanity, Trump doesn’t want to disturb his hair, he is a pure narcissistic sociopath.

    1. Trump won’t wear a mask is probably because it could smear his makeup, and then – if the mask is white, it would show orange around the edges, where it came in contact with his skin. AND he sees it as a sign of weakness. …such a buffoon…

    2. Trump HAIR HAD COVID-19 YEARS AGO THAT WHAT KEEPING THAT THROWUP HAIR ALIVE NO 😷 OR VIRUSES CURE THAT MAKE HIM FEELS SAFE AND 💪💪💪👌👎

  12. Let’s all hope and pray that Agolf Twittler is in fact taking Hydroxychloroquine. The side effect of heart failure has never sounded so promising!!

    1. I don’t think he’s wearing a mask cos he knows the whole thing is a scamdemic, following the step by step simulation process shown in the Youtube vids Event 201.

  13. Terrible spiel/sales pitch for the drug company that he’s invested money in.
