Only a complete moron what ever suggest such a thing. A kindergartner has more sense than to do this. Yet our great President gets on national television and suggests such a thing. How can anyone still think of ever voting for this guy again.

Yeah, that was a good one! Made me laugh when I heard some of the ideas Trump was throwing out there to cure the virus.Quote:

Or was Trump doing it just to play with the press. At that press conference, he was having a pretty good time calling CNN fake news. I always like it when he nails the liberal press and calls them what they are, “fake news”. Only Trump could pull this off.
I do hope you don’t follow Trump’s advice and go chugging a couple gallons of bleach. We need you around for your bombs. I miss them when you don’t post them. They keep us on our toes.
Yawn.

Was it stupid to say. Yes!
It didn’t sound like suggesting to me, more like pondering.
As far as how anyone can still think about voting for him?
The same way you’re not only thinking about but will vote for that dictator governor of yours.
That’s how.
MWP would love being bitch slapped by the Michigan governor while “get off my lawn” Joe looks on.
My guess is this story is why the president left the briefing the way he did.

dannyj, I appreciate you putting a quote up. I haven't read a transcript, but that is roughly what I remember Trump saying. I personally find what he said pretty disturbing. I'd like these briefings to be factual. I don't think that misinformation or musings are helpful. This particular train of thought was even more concerning to me. I heard Trump claim that he was just being sarcastic with the press. For the record, he did not sound sarcastic and he was addressing advisors, one of whom gave a serious response.Quote:

This seems to bother you less than it does me. Since we are using the same facts here, I don't have an issue with that. What I heard was that he was recommending to his advisors to investigate his ideas, which is different than telling people to drink bleach. I wasn't going to vote for him before this and it sounds like you are still a supporter after this. I'm also fine with that. Since you apparently like to deal with facts when forming your opinions, I'm going to look for more of your posts.
Come on Bob21, at some point you just have to admit that some things said are in fact, moronic. Trying to defend or find deeper meaning in some cases makes the defender look as moronic as the speaker.
Trump was obviously Trolling the Liberals but they love to sensationalize.
Conservatives are not above using sensationalism either to be fair.
It appears that the Liberal Media isn't too upset with Cristiana Cuomo for taking Clorox Baths.
If you are Liberal You should take Clorox Baths but don't swallow.
If your Trump it doesn't matter what you say you are going to get crucified lol.
Cristina Cuomo says she treated her coronavirus with Clorox Baths

I love to through it out there every so often, since I know it’s like fingernails scratching a chalkboard to liberals.
Bottom line is we don’t want a president like Oboma, who goes around the world apologizing for being an American. I know liberals like MWP eat that stuff up.
Look, it’s just like America. Are we perfect? Of course not. Compared to utopia, we fall far short. But compared to any other country in the world, it’s not even close. America and the ideals it stands for are still the standard bearer throughout the world. But I get the liberal Democrats are trying to tear American down.
Trump is probably our last hurrah, before the liberals and all their freeloaders, criminals, illegal aliens, under age voters, multiple voters and stupid puppet followers like MWP take over. I’m going to enjoy it while it last! And yes, I’ll give Trump a pass here and there when he goes too far. He’s still got about 50 pass cards left with me, and probably more.

I agree with MaxPen... call me when the shooting starts.
wasilla, - Thanks, I appreciate your response. I can't defend what he said. It was stupid. Musings or ponderings are not helpful. I think it was yet another instance where he talks too much, flies by the seat of his pants, and misspeaks - badly. But no malice. No bad intent.Quote:

I'm definitely still a supporter. People lie, presidents included. If I disqualified him for lying I'd have to disqualify Joe too, as well as every other president. Bottom line is I'm a conservative and Joe is too far to my left. Way too far. Like I told red yesterday, Trump would have to basically change all his positions and out left Joe for me to not support him. Re-electing Trump is in my best interest. I also believe it's in the countries best interest too. We were doing pretty good before the CV knocked our asses down. I just don't hang up on his style, which puts many people off. They hate it. I shrug.
OK Monet. I'm not saying you have to listen to him saying things, I just asked if you listened to him during yesterday's briefing. I did listen to him and it was not obvious to me that he was intending to troll liberals. He sounded serious and was treated as such by those he brought up with him. I also heard him say that he was just being sarcastic with the press. As a reporter at that press conference pointed out, he was not addressing the press when he made those comments.Quote:

It is not just liberals who think that he was serious. If you saw the briefing and actually think that he was resorting to very dry sarcasm, then we have a difference in opinion over the same set of facts. If you didn't see it, then I'm basing my opinion on listening to what he actually said, and you are basing your opinion on something else.
Did you see Thursday's briefing Monet?
I don't think that Trump cares what I think, and I doubt that Biden is too worried about you. What makes a difference is when I call out my side and you call out yours. I hope you don't back up Trumps lies. I'm not going to back up Biden's lies. The country would be better off if our leaders weren't backed up by their bases when they lied and misinformed. I voted for Obama twice, but he should never have told people that they could keep their insurance if they liked it. So I don't fault you for still planning to vote for Trump over a false sarcasm claim. We all make our choices by factoring in the alternatives.Quote:

Most of you don't get Trump.
I have been listening to him for over 40 years.
He is the same guy who can sound serious at press conferences and do SNL Skits.
He sounds just as serious when he is opening up a House of Wings as he does at these daily pressers.
Obviously you didn't live in the era when saying NOT at the end of every sentence was cool.
In the days when people would call your name and look the other way constantly.
Don't you know anything about Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Both Bush's, the Clintons and your favorite Obama??
Carter and Reagan saw UFOs lol.
Reagan was against Cesar Chavez and the Grape Pickers... etc etc for all these presidents.
W continued reading to children while the Twin Towers were falling down.
Even the beloved JFK was constantly screwing around on his wife.
Go back and read many of the crazy things they said over the decades.
I get it... it is a new SJW world.
Excellent post monet! I'm not saying I'm an expert on Trump, but when I started seeing that the media doesn't get him is when I watched Morning Joe every morning before I went to work at least a year before Trump won the presidential election. Morning Joe used to be a conservative before he got the hots for his co-host Mika and slowly became a liberal, and thus Trump hater.Quote:

On election night when Trump pretty much blew everybody away with his win is when I started getting Trump, and saw the press didn't have a clue. Since then, I've appreciated Trump's style more, even though I don't always agree with it.
Trump gets the common folks better than any president, except maybe Reagan. This is unusual since Trump comes from wealth and is wealthy. Trump doesn't do polls but he knows how the common man thinks. They don't get caught up in the "gotcha" moments the press and liberal media live for. The common Joe doesn't care about the off-the-cuff comments Trump made last night. Only the liberal media and the people who already hate Trump, like MWP, care about these statements. Trump already knows he's never going to get those voters anyway.
If you're one of those liberal Elites who analyzes every press conference and how Trump says something, then Trump is never going to win you over. Then you need to go with no-personality, no-substance liberal Democrat puppet Joe Biden. I'm sure Biden is like the Clintons, where he does a poll before he ever makes a statement to make sure he says things the majority agree with. Obama also did polls before he knew what he believed in. In general, Democrats do polls before they speak so they can couch their devious liberal message into something the people can stomach.
Us common folks wants an everyday no-nonsense man like Trump, who is not calculated and could care less about the PC police. Trump just says what comes to his mind. There is a beauty to that you got to appreciate. Trump just got 50 more pass cards from me!
Those saying Trump made a statement to use bleach to disinfect coronavirus are either lying ass propagandists or just plain stupid. Trump was actually asking a question. And it was about sunlight as disenfectant. It's known that viruses don't do well in warm sunlight. Their half-life is ruined. But leave it to idiots like MWP to try to portray it as Trump telling people to shoot up bleach. Damn fricking stupid.Quote:

I have a book reco on this. Win Bigly by Scott Adams, about Trump and his 2016 campaign and first year in office.
This book is a good read for both liberals and conservatives because although Adams is currently a Trump supporter he was initially a Hillary supporter and he does not pull any punches on Trump, rather he gives a pretty objective and detailed analysis on Trump and gets into detail about the way Trump persuades , his New York style sense of humor, and the rationale on how he was able to successfully handle all the things that would kill a regular politician like Pgate, Charleston, McCain comments, etc.
It covers the logic quite well on all these types of things in a common sense non-partisan way that both liberals and conservatives can understand.

I don't want to hear Liberal or Conservative opinions on the News but 24hr Cable News Media is what it is these days.
Local News channels seem to be a bit better in this regard.
Trump has admitted that he is a Spoiled Brat.
He admits he is Very Brash.
He constantly Trolls on Twitter and has been Trolling during these press conferences because that is what he enjoys.
You can't blame him because many of the reporters ask him offensive questions just trying to bait him.
So he gives it right back to them like MC says... you want to troll, lets Troll!!
I don't care who is in office because I know that it doesn't matter but I will vote for Trump just because people hate him and the Main Stream Media constantly bash him.
I guess it is a sort of F U to the establishment and I think many blue collar people feel that way.
Hey at least Trump got that Bullshit Obamacare taken off of our taxes.
We shouldn't be forced to pay for healthcare and we shouldn't be taxed a fine if we don't want it.

As I recall the briefing, Trump had someone describing a study in which BOTH sunlight/heat and disinfectants were found to significantly reduce the half life of the virus on non porous services. I believe the disinfectants it looked at were bleach and some form of alcohol. Afterwards Trump came up and talked to advisors on stage about using light AND injecting disinfectant into the human body. Later in the briefing Trump backed off of the injecting but did not say that he only meant sunlight.Quote:

I don't mind you choosing to believe that he was talking only about sunlight, but that is not the majority view of most who watched the briefing. I am surprised though. I knew of people who didn't care that Trump said what he said, those that accepted it as sarcasm, and those who were bothered by it. I haven't heard anyone else, including Trump and his spokesman claiming he was only talking about sunlight. What I heard was that, when asked about injecting disinfectant, Trump said that he was being sarcastic.
You can't just say what the majority opinion is without putting up evidence that is was the majority opinion.Quote:

Media Headline:
TRUMP SAYS TO EAT SHIT!
Next Days Media Headline:
THREE PEOPLE DEAD FROM EATING SHIT!!!
Fair enough. It's just my opinion what the majority opinion is or isn't. I don't have any polls to cite and my own sample is certainly small and not random.
Our states are both at the bottom of the corona stat sheets and are starting to reopen. Alaska has been doing above average testing and hasn't been finding many new cases. Even Anchorage seems to be planning a similar strategy a few days later. I'm not sure if Montana got the testing supplies you guys needed, but it seems that our 2 states are pretty well situated for an earlier reopening. I'm kind of picturing a Sweden like social distance plan here with more testing and contract tracing that might allow infected people to be quarantined. My Governor seems pretty cautious, but the drop in oil prices is causing its own problems. Best of luck.

Turns out everybody knows the answer. LOL Bob21. I've heard nothing of a divorce. Family issues have hit the local news sometimes, but there usually has to be an arrest involved before I notice it covered. I'm assuming your source is good. Did you find out from family? Personally, I'm hoping that the news gives this a pass. Governor Palin was different before her Vice Presidential bid. She was pretty popular and reportedly even brought cookies to legislators. More important to me is the extra billions she got from oil companies. That money is looking especially good right now. Her run brought her fame and fortune, but cost her support back home. I'm guessing she would have been a 2 term governor and eventually made a national splash had she stayed put. Who knows which route would have left her happier. Roads not taken.Quote:

So for a Palin quiz question: Did Sarah say that she could see Russia from her house?Quote:

The 2008 presidential election cost her dearly. She got hit with a ton of frivolous lawsuits that she couldn't afford to pay lawyers to defend against. The frivolous lawsuits are a routine Dem tactic. Her only recourse was to resign as Governor of Alaska and take the big money she could get from appearances and speeches. Fox News alone payed her 1 million dollars a year.Quote:
