Christ. @realDonaldTrump is promising "immediate" delivery of drugs that can combat the virus.

This is freaking dangerous. There's no drug ON THE WAY. And what people are working on needs to be tested. The last thing we need is people taking UNTESTED drugs.

They should CUT HIS MIC. He's spreading dangerous LIES, dear God.

I can tell you how this is going to play: We'll rush something untested. Desperate people will take it, healthy but scared people who do not need it will take it. PEOPLE WILL GET SICK!
Later, Anti-vaxxers will cite the botched Corona vaccine as a reason to not get their shots.

HE'S JUST MAKING SHIT UP and reading BY SYLLABLE words he doesn't understand, then INVENTING things that he thinks those words could do, based on his mental fantasies.

Playing Trump live reckless negligence on the part of the media.

The media's refusal to reckon with its failures that helped bring about the Trump presidency are now helping people get sick and die.

Millennials will not remember this, but we used to have laws that prevented prescription drugs from being advertised on TV or in print. All those ads we're now used that end with "ask your doctor about... X" all of those used to be illegal.

The drug companies got those laws overturned. But the REASON why we had them was essentially to stop con-men like @realDonaldTrump from doing what he just did. Talk about something that is NOT APPROVED for the issue you have, causing people to demand drugs they shouldn't take.

Everybody should notice that Dr. Fauci is NOT at "Let's lie to everybody" press conference.

I have a stress headache from listening to this pack of liars.

Light headedness has started. I'm out. I can't with this.

Somebody tell me what @Yamiche asks so I can read it later.
