Trump: Yes, I'm Taking Hydroxychloroquine...Brace for the Liberal Media Hysterics
Townhall.com ^ | May 18, 2020 | Matt Vespa

President Donald Trump dropped some news this afternoon. He’s taking hydroxychloroquine at the recommendation of the White House physician. He’s been taking it for a week-and-a-half now. He’s not infected with the virus, but he’s taking it as a precaution since he’s the president and sees scores of people every day.

Trump asked what the evidence is that hydroxychloroquine helps re coronavirus.

President Trump says he has been taking hydroxychloroquine and zinc for the last two weeks.

"I take it," he said. "So far, I seem to be OK."— Yamiche Alcindor (@Yamiche) May 18, 2020

There’s going to be liberal media hysterics. You know it’s coming. Right now, the halls of MSNBC, especially that of the Rachel Maddow show, are cooking up some InfoWars-lite conspiracy theory about Trump possibly having it and covering it up. 

Why did Trump do this? Well, one could see him trolling for a liberal media freak out. He knows they overreact, overreach, or in the end, get stories dead wrong about his administration. I wouldn’t put it past him to see if this legion of idiots, who call themselves MSNBC, CNN, ABC News, CBS News, NPR, etc., the liberal media establishment, take the bait. They will. They’re addicted to this punishment. It’s an election year. They need Joe Biden to look somewhat competent, unlike the person we see now who looks like he needs daily reminders to put on pants. Has anything really changed since 2016? The media still hates this man—and that nonsense will probably land them in trouble again. I can’t wait to see what these clowns cook up upon this news. 

Also, let’s not gloss over the most important part: the president is fine. He’s not infected, though I’m sure many, many liberals hope that he contracts it because that’s the Left, that’s how they are in 2020. Pure animals.

Also, let’s not forget that 65 percent of doctors said they would prescribe hydroxychloroquine to a family member, with 66 percent saying they would take the drug themselves. Out of over 6,200 doctors surveyed worldwide from 30 different countries, this anti-malarial drug was the one they deemed the “most effective therapy” against this virus.

Watched the Leftists on a forum I’m on go bananas immediately. You’d think this stuff was rat poison. In fact, they’re hoping it is.

Enemy Media: “Only BILLIONAIRES can afford the drug President Trump is taking! President Trump WANTS you to DIE!”

So predictable!

I have assumed Heand Pence we’re taking it for quite some time. Most likely there are plenty of other CongreeCritters taking it, too. Big Deal. It’s smart on their part to do so.

I wish they’d declare it OTC. Screw the Pharmaceutical Thieves!

"There’s going to be liberal media hysterics."

Sure, it's already started with Neil Cavuto. Him and the doc he had on his program this afternoon were howling about how your going to die a horrible death if you take this drug.... Hydroxychloroquine is a KILLER.!! We're all going DIE if we use this cheap, worthless five dollar dangerous stuff..
Everyone should know by now that we have this perfectly good $500 dollar pill that will cure all your ills.. Why, it cures moles, colds and sore assholes, makes child berth a pleasure…. Pfffsst..! :(

What exactly is the problem here?
The leftists want Trump dead. So if Hydroxy is as dangerous as the fsr left crazies in thr media say, he should be dead in next to no time and they get their wish, no?
And two, nobody is forcing anybody to take Hydroxychloroquine. You want to take it, fine. You don't want to take it, great.
So what's the problem?

Jesse Waters quipped that the media reacted as if Trump had said that he had set up a meth lab in the West Wing.

Trump is involved, and the level of #TDS among our Left is off the charts. Anything he does is grounds for frenzied tail-chasing.

They'll just say he's lying about taking it. Or else hope he gets serious side-effects. Or both.

“They’re going to try and invoke the 25th amendment because he’s as good as dead from taking HCQ”.


I believe it will be included in the next House Impeachment articles. Adam Schiff is on this.

I've had about all I can take from that fat pos.

Him and the doc he had on his program this afternoon were howling about how your going to die a horrible death if you take this drug.... Hydroxychloroquine is a KILLER.!!

So how come I am alive and still going strong and healthy then? I have taken hundreds of doses of Chloroquine to deal with malaria during my lifetime.

He should continue to make Fauci just stand quietly behind him, looking stupid in a mask.
