Hating Trump for nominating Fauci, promoting lockdowns, and creating the shot is based though.
@cjd exactly.
So many Trump critics lash onto easily debunkable claims when there's plenty wrong that the guy DID do.
Why make things up?
Boot
Lickers
and so they have to make up some dumb shit like something he didn't say or some mistake he made on his taxes.
@cjd that's honestly not the worst take.
So many people really don't fault for abusing power, as they want to see it abused in a different way.
I suppose making things up is one way around that.

"Republicans who, after years of peddling a dangerous political Big Lie, now insist on still hawking an equally dangerous medical Big Lie whose "runaway political rhetoric" turns the much-respected, life-saving Dr. Fauci into "a comic-book super villain." This, never mind their real-life villain who's long championed revenge - "I love getting even when I get screwed by someone" - who told Americans during COVID to inject bleach"

@Captain_Jack_Sparrow @volkris @cjd So you’re saying that #Trump didn’t say these words after the fact:
“It wouldn’t be through injections, almost a cleaning and sterilization of an area. Maybe it works, maybe it doesn’t work, but it certainly has a big effect if it’s on a stationary object.”
@realcaseyrollins @cjd @volkris
He backtracked soon after he suggested it, someone probably advised him to do so.
@Captain_Jack_Sparrow @cjd @volkris He was wrong and corrected himself, never mind him immediately saying that medical professionals would need to check his proposal to make sure that it was feasible.
But of course, there’s nothing he could have said or done after that that would have satisfied you. Everything he does and says is bad and wrong and dangerous and scawie, he’s not ever allowed to get anything wrong even if he apologizes and corrects himself.
I think I’m done with this convo, as I try to avoid doing political debates with bad faith actors.
@realcaseyrollins @cjd @volkris
You are the bad faith actor, persecuting and spreading lies about Fauci, and spreading ignorant misinformation about Covid.
Goodbye.
Notice that there's an enormous difference between Is there a way we could inject something like a disinfectant? vs People should inject themselves with bleach!
So yes, you made it up, ascribing to Trump a quote that was so completely different from what he actually said.
It reminds me that occasionally press reporters would do things like leave out the word "not" in a statement he made, turning the statement into the exact opposite, and people would just go with it.
@volkris @cjd @realcaseyrollins
He said this
"And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning. Because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs."
Those were his exact words during a press conference. I don't deny that he backtracked from it later, but he said those words, up to you if you want to say I made it up, but you're wrong.
@Captain_Jack_Sparrow and those exact words debunk the claim about what he said.
When you yourself point out that he said something different from what you claim he said, you sink your own case.
@volkris @cjd @realcaseyrollins
Firstly I didn't make it up Trump suggests injecting disinfectant into the body to kill covid, during a WH press briefing
Trump: "Right. And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning"

Secondly I despise trump primarily for abusing his power, prompting racial hated and corruption. He is a fascist.
