How can you say it's not effective? Do those 17,000 dead people still have COVID? /s
17000 deaths.... Within a limited set of countries, so the entire amount world wide will be much, MUCH higher.
Trump is the direct cause that covid got that big in the US, he directly recommended shit like this medication, hell he recommended injecting bleach.
Trump is DIRECTLY responsible for the deaths of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of men, women and children.
But hey, let's make him president again!
hell he recommended injecting bleach
Okay...first and foremost: Trump is a fascist moron, an absolute danger to everyone, and can go fuck himself. However, he did not recommend injecting bleach. He VERY STUPIDLY asked his task force if it was something we could do.
Which you could argue is also a large component of the inflation we've had. We wouldn't have had to massively stimulate the economy if there wasn't a pandemic. But it was all Biden, charging you more for eggs, right?
Even if 10% of those people took it because he told them to, that’s 1700 deaths on his head.
I haven’t even killed one person.
You're way behind... /s
Shiity kd/r
Given they're still alive, their k/d is undefined
1st, I doubt he cares or even thinks about it.
2nd, if we’re talking about his actions leading to deaths, I’d say this one is his top-performer (5/10/2018):

I haven’t even killed one person.
Have you even made the effort?
People are so lazy these days.
Well technically, dying does eliminate COVID from your body.
This is probably the grossest "um, actually" I've said ever, but I think technically rotting is what eventually gets rid of the covid in your body. A recently deceased person would still "have" covid in them.
Unfortunately, the people who need to know the results of this study don't believe in studies.
And they're dead.
Some of them are. But I know plenty of Trumpers who consider anything coming out of a university or any study as "fake news."
'member when Oklahoma bought $2m worth of hydroxychloroquine at the height of repub's hysteria, then tried to return them for a refund? Pepperidge Farm 'member.
Wait... they got prescriptions for it?
Where are the malpractice suits? Where are the licensing authorities?
Who would sue the pharmacists? The state probably don’t want anything to do with that and the victims are dead. They probably only have relatives that don’t want or haven’t talked to them in years.
Look, nobody kills off his base better than him.
The base kills itself off pretty well. They would contest this assertion with as much vigor as they can muster!
What's the word we use for a group of people who follow their chosen leader no matter how ridiculous? I can't remember...
Didn't some people drink a bunch of poison coolaid once?
/s
Let's be real. This dude was doing us a favor by doing this. Anyone dumb enough to listen to him fucking deserves it.
If they were just taking it themselves, that is, unfortunately a lot of these shitwads have children and other dependants.
I don't know that they deserve it, but as a society, we certainly don't have the resources to fix MAGA. That level of deprogramming and educating is WAY past our infrastructure and resources.
So death IS an affective alternative, then.
When it's self-selected death by hateful people who dehumanize others I don't have a problem with it.
Doesn't his buddy own the company that makes the stuff?
This was a pumb and dump scam that Trump ran right from the White House.
Personally I liked his stint as a bean salesman while in the white house, just casually sitting at the resolute desk hocking beans...just president stuff NBD.
Filtering themselves out. No problems here.
