Hollywood Celebs Freak Out After Trump Says He’s Taking Hydroxychloroquin
Breitbart ^ | May 19, 2020 | David Ng

Posted on 05/20/2020 8:51:34 AM PDT by EdnaMode

Hollywood celebrities couldn’t resist freaking out after President Donald Trump made a surprise announcement Monday that he is taking hydroxychloroquine with zinc. The commander in chief said that he has been taking the anti-malaria drug for more than a week under his physician’s care and so far feels fine.

Even the left-wing Snopes has debunked claims that the president owns a financial stake in the drugmaker. But that didn’t stop financially illiterate Hollywood stars from resurrecting the hoary claim on Tuesday to smear the president.

Barbra Streisand led the social media charge, implying that President Trump is taking the drug for financial gain.

@BarbraStreisand Trump says he’s now taking hydroxychloroquine. He might be lying but could it be because he has a small stake in the company Sanofi who owns it? That’s according to Forbes this past April…

Mia Farrow also implied that the president has ulterior motives for mentioning hydroxychloroquine. Actor Adam Goldberg echoed the sentiment, wrongly claiming that Trump is an “investor.”

@MiaFarrow

I dont believe Trump’s claim that he is taking hydroxychloroquine. What doctor would prescribe it for an older, obese guy with a heart problem? It is ineffective in preventing coronavirus and increases rate of cardiac arrhythmia. My question is.why is he pushing it?

@TheAdamGoldberg

He's an investor.

Bette Midler tweeted that the drug has been shown to be “completely ineffective” to combat COVID-19, despite medical evidence showing that some patients have recovered quickly after taking the drug.

@BetteMidler

The president says he’s taking hydroxychloroquine to protect himself from Covid-19, even though it’s been shown to be completely ineffective. Side effects are paranoia, hallucinations & psychosis. I guess he’s been taking it for YEARS!

I think Trump’s on the stuff.

Dihydrogen monoxide is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and kills uncounted thousands of people every year. Most of these deaths are caused by accidental inhalation of DHMO, but the dangers of dihydrogen monoxide do not end there. Prolonged exposure to its solid form causes severe tissue damage. Symptoms of DHMO ingestion can include excessive sweating and urination, and possibly a bloated feeling, nausea, vomiting and body electrolyte imbalance. For those who have become dependent, DHMO withdrawal means certain death

I watch his pressers, his glass always has the White paper cover over it, he's not touching the stuff in public, doesn't want to provide a false sense of hope.

Are they complaining that it’s not safe...as if you might get sick from taking it?

Or are they suggesting its safe to digest, but isn’t an effective cure?

If it’s the former, then why is it prescribed for other illnesses?

If it’s the latter, then how is it any different than taking say...two glasses of milk to cure it? Ineffective yes, but not harmful?

Obviously, the media is ONLY interested in attacking Trump, because in either of the above cases it makes no sense at all.

These Hollyweird elitists are showing their ignorance, and what hypocrites they really are. They drink alcohol to excess, pop pills non-stop, snort all sorts of stuff up their noses, stick needles into their veins, shoot botox into their bodies, and get sliced and diced in an attempt to prevent wrinkles, and they have the nerve to speak out against President Trump for using the prescribed medication Hydroxychloroquine?

’...what doctor would prescribe it to an older man, who is obese...’

First of all, President Trump is in great shape - as evidenced by him having the energy of nearly ten men. But secondly, IF someone were in a high risk category - wouldn’t you want them to take a medicine that is reported by many to have strong preventive properties with respect to CoVid? That is the HCQ and zinc supplements? I could understand being more cautious regarding the antibacterial azithromycin - but HCQ and zinc are pretty benign (as long as you don’t take 15x the recommended dose - as did that poor fellow who went with the aquarium cleaner treatment).

I think you’re 100% correct. That’s exactly why he’s taking it.

I loved watching the witches on MSNBC express ‘great concern’ for Trump.

Who do they think they’re kidding?

And the blowhard doctors MSNBC lined up for comments about their great fear for Trump’s life. They were all Trump haters.

Gimme a break.

These are the same witches and shills who would walk over their dead mother’s warm bodies if they could get to a place fast enough to destroy Trump. Peddle that crap some place else babes...we’re NOT buying it.
