In this episode I contemplate the utter stupidity of those who would follow Donald Trump’s advice to ingest or inject household cleaners like Lysol and Clorox to help treat Coronavirus Covid-19. This alone should render him both insane and un-electable. Should he win in 2020, I may officially give up hope in the American people. If people insist on being stupid about things and pushing conspiracy theories to undermine credible authorities like Dr. Anthony Fauci, the Surgeon General, the World Health Organization and numerous others, then that electorate will get 4 more years of exactly what they want - a reality television show host who is a serial liar and narcissist. If the dangerous, irresponsible, blame-game playing, non critical thinking and unconscionable way things have been handled by this administration during this crisis is not proof enough of Donald Trump’s utter incompetence I don’t know what would be. Also discussed is the promise of a drug Remdesivir for treating Covid-19, and my belief we need to put our entertainments, sports, and other non-essential activities aside and just settle in to give all of our human energy and ingenuity to overcoming or at least getting this crisis to a reasonably manageable level as soon as possible so the human community can move forward.
