(53,968 posts)It was something about injecting bleach or some such into the body to clean out the virus "in a minute"something like that.

If he ever knew why we watched - waiting for the final melt-down.

(22,191 posts)don't participate in this farce and give the idiot in chief a single minute of air time over what literally have been a circus clown show or circus side show. I for one, will never turn the TV on, will never watch this gutter mouth.

(24,452 posts)I thought that he was doing them because he's finally decided to start being more responsible for fighting COVID or something.

(10,848 posts)The more Trump blathers about the virus and displays his total ignorance the better.
Keep on digging, Donnie!
Btw, I read an article this morning where Paul Ryan said the State of Wisconsin is dead to Trump, a 70-30% upheaval. He went on to say, if Trump cannot turn around Wisconsin and the midwest states, he's done. Duh.

(100,129 posts)This is like that Simpsons episode where Sideshow Bob steals the nuclear bomb and gets Springfield to shut down TV for good. But then Krusty realizes that he could get 100% of the ratings if he hijacks the emergency broadcasting system.
Really, I would like to tell Donnie where he can go shove his precious ratings.
