Which it’s to say, not.

      His (Trumps) comments came after William Bryan, the undersecretary for science and technology at the Department of Homeland Security, presented a study that found sun exposure and cleaning agents like bleach can kill the virus when it lingers on surfaces.

      Trump remarked on the effectiveness of those methods and wondered if they could help address infections in the human body.

      Here are his full comments:

      “A question that probably some of you are thinking of if you’re totally into that world, which I find to be very interesting. So, supposedly we hit the body with a tremendous, whether it’s ultraviolet or just very powerful light, and I think you said that hasn’t been checked, but you’re going to test it. And then I said supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way. (To Bryan) And I think you said you’re going to test that, too. Sounds interesting, right?”

      He continued.

      “And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in 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, so it’d be interesting to check that, so that you’re going to have to use medical doctors with, but it sounds interesting to me. So, we’ll see, but the whole concept of the light, the way it kills it in one minute. That’s pretty powerful.”

      So, he only proposed a possibly of testing ingesting/injecting disinfectants (like bleach) in some form, he never said “drink bleach”. No one would possibly take that as a suggestion, and experiment on themselves! No way! He was just throwing out ideas, that we were all thinking - like a brain storming session! And Ivermectin!

    It’s probably a good thing they took steps to protect that kid from the priest….

    There’s some fun conservative symbolism in offering up a baby to a gun wielded by the establishment, all in front of an altar.

    The stage where one mask and a squirt gun were deemed sufficient for a group of four people?

      The family might’ve wanted pictures without masks and hopefully put them back on afterwards, at least I would like to hope they did.

        I mean, they’re white christians in church, it’s entirely possible they thought masks were a soros-funded conspiracy

            This is kinda like saying that white people aren’t the source of white Christian nationalism… Or that white men don’t have privilege.

            “What’s race got to do with it?”

            Of fucking course race has something to do with it. If you want to say it doesn’t make an argument that it doesn’t or get the sealioning bullshit out of here.

    "Sorry you got twisted up in this scene.
    From where you’re held, it must seem like an 18-carat crawl of bad luck.

    Truth is…
    the game was rigged from the start."
