Close enough.
More conspiracy theories. The president would never do anything to help his business or the businesses of his friends. Shame on you :).Quote:

But yeah now that trump is touting it , there must be some kind of conspiracy where trump is profiting from this or that he is full of crap and the meds shouldn’t be tried . The blind hatred for trump just causes people to lose their damned minds
Oops my bad. Apologies. ;)Quote:

Or Trump Tower Moscow deal during his presidential campaign? He also may have considered offering Putin a $50 million penthouse, underscoring the potential role of business interests in the Trump-Putin connection.
Similarly, in Saudi Arabia, Trump continues to deny the involvement of crown prince Mohammed bin Salman in the murder of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi – going, yet again, against US intelligence reports. At the same time, it’s been reported that he has numerous business deals with the country and has made tens of millions not only from Saudi investors, but from the government as well.
But wait there more....lots more. :)
Yes. I hate when Garbage posts like this are made. I agreeQuote:

That’s a fact
It’s disgusting they did it but I’m guessing you are ok with it
The idea that a professional “businessman “ might set his family and others up for profit by pushing a drug that has very little empirical data to back it is garbage?
Why is it garbage as a thought? Because you didn’t think of it?
Genius, if the drug was a sure thing, don’t you think they’d be filling the hospitals with it?Quote:

That’s all I was saying. He’s pushing it for a reason and that reason is likely money and approvalQuote:

There are concerns with side effect and heart arrhythmia when the two drugs are combined.Quote:

Read down after the entire two paragraphs you are citing. It saysQuote:

Its also written by GOPUSA, so maybe a tiny slant towards Donnie
I’ll tell you what, I’ll be impressed if you actually read the entire article instead of simply citing a sentence in an entire interview
Also, you just did exactly what you accuse everyone else of doing, so you are a hypocrite
But you’ve been on so many times that maybe it’s canceled it out
I was replying to the posts that no medications should be used and that trump is somehow profiting from those drugs . I pointed it out how those drugs were pushed by others weeks ago before trump started pushing to use themQuote:

Clinical trials are exactly that and at the end of the day, they are looking for something that will fight this virus so of course there will be exploratory measures. That doesn't mean it should be talked about as a potential treatment or cure. Its misinformation and potentially dangerous misinformation if people start thinking this will stem the tide.
Yeah I know about the stock dumping . But when it was first reported on it was only the Republican senators that were attacked for it , but when it was proven that Democrat senators did it too , the media and some people here went silent on it real quickly . And yes i was not happy when I heard about it too .Quote:

Well any Success with these drugs vs the virus should certainly be enough to warrant some usage of it . There is nothing to lose by trying it like trump said . Not trying it at all out of fear that it might not work is downright criminal . I applaud trump for wanting to try that drug on this virus .Quote:
