Trump proposes injecting people with disinfectant to kill Coronavirus

I see, so you charitably interpret Schiff's conduct but not Trump's.

No - Trump was criticized for not wearing a mask while interacting with people just after the official WH policiy said you should. That is not the same thing as needing to speak into a mic. You can't speak into a mic wearing a mask like that, it garbles your speech. So if anyone criticized Trump for not wearing a mask while speaking into a mic, that was silly. And if Adam Schiff was wondering around interacting with people w/o a mask after the official WH policy was to wear a mask, then that was bad.

You need to stop listening to that lie running around in your head that claims I apply different standards to Trump than I do to other Politicians.


I don't.

You can't speak into a mic wearing a mask like that, it garbles your speech.

Actually, several of Schiff's colleagues addressed the assembly while wearing masks and were perfectly intelligible, so this rationalization doesn't work.

But you're missing the point. You guys have been going on and on about how important it is for our leaders to set a good example, but since you're not blaming Schiff for people's actions then on what basis do you blame Trump? It looks suspiciously like a double standard, doesn't it?

(And for the record, I really don't believe that people wearing masks under their chins can be blamed on Schiff any more than I think people ingesting toxins can be blamed on Trump.)

But you're missing my point. I would excuse Trump for not wearing the mask while speaking into a mic. There is no double standard here.

Your last point is absurd. Trump is responsible, and yes schiff could theoretically be held responsible for some people wearing masks under their chins when speaking into a mic, but it's not like that even matters. However, people poisoning themselves ( stupidly I do admit) based on a suggestion Trump made does matter. A lot.

I don't believe for a moment that anybody I saw yesterday was emulating Schiff looking like a goof with a mask under his chin, but I am amused that you grudgingly concede that your absurd logic demands that we assign blame to him.

And Trump never suggested that people ingest poison.

I would appreciate it if you would support that accusation. How have I been dishonest?

Trump appeared to suggest that injecting cleaning and disinfecting products could be a treatment method for the new coronavirus.

He did not.

Actually Trump's quote caused the number of calls to go down (compare March 55%) to April (40-45%).

Classic Shunya - cite something 'authoritative' that undermines his own position.

The local consumer affairs watchdog reported that his wife 'poisoned' herself after repeatedly sanitizing the kitchen floor with a Swiffer while barefooted.

I predict that by 2025 we'll see a flood of lawyer commercials on TV encouraging folks to join a class action law suit against sanitizer manufacturers
