Virginia governor fires back at Trump: 'I suggest you stop taking hydroxychloroquine'
The Hill ^ | 5/19 | Zack Budryk

Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam (D) fired back at President Trump Tuesday after the president referred to Northam as “crazy” and an opponent of Second Amendment rights.

Trump, speaking at a White House event Tuesday, followed a speaker from Virginia by saying, "We're going after Virginia, with your crazy governor, we're going after Virginia. They want to take your Second Amendment. You know that, right? You'll have nobody guarding your potatoes."

“I grew up on a Virginia farm, Mr. President - our potatoes are fine. And as the only medical doctor among our nation's governors, I suggest you stop taking hydroxychloroquine,” Northam tweeted. “Let's all get back to work.”

Northam’s tweet was in reference to the president’s statement on Monday that he has been taking the antimalarial drug, frequently prescribed for arthritis and lupus.

Numerous Democrats, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) have warned about possible risks from the president taking the drug, as has Fox News’s Neil Cavuto.

They are scared to death that by taking it he will prove it’s safe and effective. They desperately need the virus to last to November.

Northam is on the pill you bet for sure! He is such a girly man and a disgrace to the uniform. He used the Army to get his education. He is lowest of the low and one of the most vile, disgusting humans to ever walk the earth.

Wait, was Governor Northram the one in blackface or the one in the klan outfit? Perhaps Kayleigh McEnany can ask for clarification in tomorrow’s briefing?

He decided he could hurt many, many more people at the same time if he branched into politics.

Reminds me of the old line about the difference between a proctologist and a bartender: The proctologist only deals with one a$$hole at a time!

Trump can listen to his White House doctor, or he can listen to Dr. Northam.

I think I would listen to the White House Doc. Dr. Northam has forgotten a lot since his medical school days. He can’t even remember if he was the one in the blackface or the one wearing the Ku Klux Klan hood, for instance.

Are they concerned or are they upset Trump foiled their plan to infect him with CCP

Considering who it is who's advising him not to take the medicine, the answer is pretty obvious.

Whatever happen to being pro choice, democrats? What about leaving people alone to make their own decision on what they do with their bodies?

This governor should have had his license pulled years ago.
He is responsible for many deaths due to ignorance.

Northam's own citizens in Virginia Beach told him to hit the road. Since he realized he can't have thousands of people arrested, he decided to hit the road.

Maybe when Northam hits the road, it stays hit. That would be a good thing for Virginia.

Actually he is a doctor/pediatrician but he doesn’t seem to realize that many Virginia hospitals are using the East Virginia Medical College protocols for early and middle severity Covid...5 days of Hydroxyquinone 200mg bid, Zinc 220 mg’s once a day and azithromycin as well as vitamin c.

The “R-vir” med is in short supply so many aren’t getting that. The really severe cases are getting a “mab” anti-inflammatory to quell the cytokine storms and oxygen support as needed including as short term a venting as possible. The blood clotting/thinning issues are starting to be addressed as they now know it’s more than a lung pneumonia issue.

Gov. Northam then tweeted, “I’d like to say more, but I’m late for my weekly KKK meeting.”
