    Lysol maker warns against internal use of disinfectants after Trump comments

    WASHINGTON — The manufacturer of Lysol, a disinfectant spray and cleaning product, issued a statement warning against any internal use after President Donald Trump suggested that people could get an "injection" of "the disinfectant that knocks (coronavirus) out in a minute."

    "As a global leader in health and hygiene products, we must be clear that under no circumstance should our disinfectant products be administered into the human body (through injection, ingestion or any other route)," a spokesperson for Reckitt Benckiser, the United Kingdom-based owner of Lysol, said in a statement to NBC News.

    "As with all products, our disinfectant and hygiene products should only be used as intended and in line with usage guidelines. Please read the label and safety information," the statement continued, adding that the company believes it has a "responsibility in providing consumers with access to accurate, up-to-date information as advised by leading public health experts."

    There have been so many it's easy to forget. Not that anyone has forgotten the abject idiocy of the disinfectant, ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine promotion by the Stable Genius. What I did forget was the necessity to keep people from following Don's almost incomprehensively reckless advice.

    While he didn't actually tell people to use Lysol internally, his musings on stage that day about potential treatments was hugely stupid. Especially because he was surrounded by doctors who could have told him in one sentence that you can't disinfect people's internal organs with UV light and Lysol. He was the president who was supposed to be projecting an air of professionalism and safety during that particular time in part because the internet was already full of people hawking fake and dangerous "cures".

    The amount of dumb stuff Trump has done is a huge list, but this isn't on the first page.

    The Trump-as-Quack Show was consistent with his enduring self-delusion that he generously shares with others:

    The video I saw of his ruminations about disinfectants showed Deborah Birx cowering off stage in stunned amazement at the clownishness of it all. And this is the guy Repubs want to put back in charge.

    I don't believe that your ordinary snake oil has anywhere near the potential for harm as Trump's deadly elixir, but the sexual abuser's lies are so addictive for his cult that they cannot ever accept his belatedly stumbling into truth:

    Yeah, Trump can say some stupid things. Yeah, Biden can say some stupid things. But after each served a term as president it's easy to see Trump gave us a better 4 years than Biden. Re-elect Trump.

    This, the invisible planes and the redrawing of cyclone tracks are some of my favourite twonkerisms from TRUMP

    Wrong. The sexual abuser, who is far too ethically feeble to respect the will of the People as expressed in a certified democratic election. lied a lot, but did little.

    E,g.,

    "You know, the wall is built....
    One of the largest infrastructure projects
    we've ever had in this country!"

    TRUMP, JANUARY 6, 2021 (when his goons attacked Congress.)


    The nation is recovering, one indication being its low unemployment rate. It had risen to 6.3% under the Loser; it's now 3.8%.

    Again Trump never suggested any one drink disinfectant. Trump asked a question regarding the information just presented regarding the use of various things including ultra violet light to kill covid germs on surfaces to find a treatment? There was nothing in that question about eating or drinking anything. Yet the headline in Americas paper of record was Trump says we should drink bleach to treat covid. Note People actually did take Ivermectin and survived covid people took Hydroxychloroquine and survived covid. According to the CDC apparently a lot of people had covid took nothing at all did nothing at all and survived just fine and in fact never knew they had covid.

    Even though you are 100% correct, I think their fake versions of it that they are giving us in this thread are way more interesting.

    That is why for a short period of time I had a tag line that read 95% of the things Democrats believe about Trump is a lie.

    Does anyone deny that Biden has become mentally impaired in his senior years? His poor condition is as plain as the nose on his face. The man needs a cue card to go to the bathroom.
