In death, he has become famous as a cautionary tale about the risks of mindlessly following the armchair medical advice President Donald Trump has dispensed from the White House podium.
But friends of 68-year-old Gary Lenius, the Arizona man who passed away last month from drinking a fish tank cleaner that contained an ingredient, chloroquine phosphate, that Trump had touted as a potential coronavirus cure, say they are still struggling to understand what drove an engineer with an extensive science background to do something so wildly out of character.

She poisoned her husband and blamed it on PDJT.
A lefty twofer.
Yes, the agenda driven author of the piece is quite suspect. She /he/it has blood on its dead soul hands for this propaganda piece.
Where is the evidence that he knew what was in the glass?
The wife is a nut case. Where are the cops?
What if he drank a glass of liquid given to him by his wife without knowing what was in the glass? How stupid would he have had to be to do that?
Having worked with Engineers my entire career I can honestly say one of the very general conclusions I’ve come to is this: an engineer’s level of common sense is inversly proportional to his level of education.
He needs to go to a blue state, so, he can vote.
Some otherwise very intelligent people will stay in, even cling to a bad marriage even when they don’t have to.
It becomes a match made in Hell between a Taker with too much self esteem becoming ‘the owner’ of a Giver, with too little self esteem.
Usually, everyone around such a couple can see the malfunction except The Giver, aka Willing Doormat.
This is often their will to stay and be abused.
Everyone knows of such a couple either as in a marriage, friendship or employment.
LOL
her next husband will die from a fractured skull because he will not take the stuff
She wanted to get rid of him. She’s a psycho Democrat.

I heard she mixed up the cocktail for her husband. She also was tried some years back for some form of spousal abuse. She was acquitted when her husband said he forgave her at the trial. Her excuse for not going the way of her husband is that she vomited up the concoction. Apparently the state is investigating the death as suspicious and I would add very fishy.
That’s what I was thinking... Probably not a CHEMICAL Engineer (I am).
he didn’t take it on his own IMO, his wife poisoned him. I hope she’s brought to justice.
Why do you and other posters here assume that he knew what was in the glass? If he wanted to kill himself, there are easier means than self-poisoning, including your 1911.
One of the article's main points is that there is no evidence that he was suicidal.
What a strange thread.
I think SHE put him out of his misery.
There have been suggestions that his wife prepared this “elixir of life” for him, with special ingredients.

Agreed-
Everyone here (and society) in general seems to think that if someone is disciplined enough to earn a degree indeed multiple degrees that they possess a very high level of intelligence, practical reasoning, and rational thought ability.
That simply is not the case. Thermometers have lots of degrees. You know where they put those? :-)
The latter sounds more reasonable.
FTA: ... an ingredient, chloroquine phosphate, that Trump had touted as a potential coronavirus cure....

Lie.
I think the wife poisoned him. He’s not around to tell us that he took the fish tank cleaner knowingly, is he?
