Trump just makes his situation worse when he backtracks like this. Just say he was thinking out loud.

No doubt, and they twisted what he was saying yesterday.

But his comment today that it was just a "sarcastic question to reporters" makes no sense.

Let's give him the benefit of the doubt and say he was being sarcastic (which I don't believe). Is this something a President should being saying at a news conference when over 50,000 Americans have died? Why can't Republican legislators see this is doing damage to the Republican party that will take many years to recover from?

Love Trump but I could not believe what I was hearing yesterday.

I looked at someone in the room with me and said “did he just say what I think he said.” Lol.


I felt alot the same way. I avoided most of the news yesterday and last night, as I'm scrolling through FB I see someone ranting about how dumb Trump is that doesn't usually make many political post. So I started to reply that there is no way he said something so dumb and meant it and that the media must be misconstruing whatever it was, but then I watched the link to the video.

I mean, that's kinda hard to defend.

I watched the whole thing yesterday just like everyday.

These idiots know Trump wasn't seriously talking about injecting disinfectant.

The desperation to get him is pure lunacy.

Jesus fricking Christ, will not one halfwit go back and look at the context of the comment

if you tell a joke, and then you have to explain the joke, and then you have to explain the explanation of the joke, one of two things is true. Either the joke was stupid, or you are stupid

in either case, the solution is to not tell jokes

The only people that are upset about what he said hate President Trump anyway. These are men who are pussies and women with penis envy.

No one forced him to say it. The guy was serious- you can tell the way he looked to the side and asked the DR. questions. There's no way to sugarcoat it. As someone who has voted Republican 95% of the time, I'm very afraid the Republican party and those who blanketly support Trump are hurting the cause of conservatism in for many years. He is NO Ronald Reagan and really is a very poor representative of the party. Wish he would resign and let Pence take over.

I know this is not what he meant.

I also know he wasn't just asking a sarcastic question to reporters.

To put it in football terms, I want our team to win and we can't be having our best WR fumbling in the red zone because he's being careless with the ball.

Chris Wallace just took the bait regarding this.

He just said people were calling the hotline asking if it was safe to drink disinfectant.

That sounds like a little TDS, just in the opposite direction.


If you see nothing wrong with that, you're probably way too biased here. It was a dumb thing to say from the get go, and this response is equally dumb and just not even true.


Someone needs to take the mic away from him, he can't stop fumbling over himself, it's just not a good look right now.

Again, you probably want to watch the video...but again, what does any of this matter? The only people wetting themselves over Trumps words and how literal he is, are liberals and the media.

I saw the video and it was a stupid comment to one of his team. Of course anyone who wonders if they should inject disinfectant is an idiot, but it was still a stupid comment. There's no reason to defend it. He has a propensity to say stupid things, fortunately I think he's right most of the time on policy.

Blind loyalty to any leader regardless of where you fit on the spectrum is a dangerous thing.

What concerns me is the damage this is doing to the Republican party.
