    1. Tom White, wow, you really like that Kool Aid too think that 45 was trying to be witty, he got caught in a lie and he couldn’t even stay for his press conference today because he didn’t want to be questioned about his Lie – Soil suggestion.

  2. Ron Mackey rarely misses an opportunity to make a comment, even if he must fabricate the circumstances. Trump is not amusing. His team members did not play along with his lame attempt to be witty. I hope he gets the message but it is unlikely.

    1. Seriously? That’s some perverted sense of humor. The saddest part of it all is that the science professionals are so cowed by him that they didn’t have the balls to refute his inane comment. Witty? Yeah he’s witty all right, a nit wit.

    Tom White, again, what is 45’s lame attempt to be witty? Tom White, when your guy made his witty comment at the White House coronavirus task force press conference over 50,000 Americans had died from COVID-19, where the hell is the humor Tom White?

  5. What’s as disgusting as his remarks, the silence from his party and its leadership!

    Over 100 people in Maryland called Poison Control to ask about this so one wonders how many other states had calls or how many fools are going to try this because that FOOL made his remarks! C’mon America how much ignorance are you going to tolerate from this FOOL?

  6. This was in the press today!
    A high number of New Yorkers have contacted city health authorities for ingesting bleach or household cleaners after following President Trump’s controversial claim that injecting such products would cure coronavirus.

    1. Don, once again Tom White being white, there was no way that white was going to believe and black man and we knew that he couldn’t a Google it to show you that you were right, no way Don, White looked it up and saw that you were right but there was no way that he could admit it.

  8. I read the piece by Anna Sanders, a spike, meaning people tend to call for “POSSIBLE” exposure to disinfectants on a daily basis, considering we had an epidemic of teens eating Tide Pods. This has shown us how the media exploits and disseminates one-sided story political stories to feel to their base of blind voters. Trump as so said UV rays kills the virus, I didn’t see a story of a mass exodus to the beaches and sunburns.

    That being say. Lennie, Lysol if you can find out how much future profit deal Saffan and Gil make for the Port or is that one line just a disinfect to how the Port got burned.

    Saffan said he and his partners already absorbed much of those extra costs and sought the $4.5 million to complete the work “in the spirit of a partnership.” In return, Saffan and Economic Development Director Tom Gill negotiated an increase in Bridgeport’s share of future revenues. I know no one on the council didn’t or expressed it openly.

    Here’s the problem with this demand. While funding is everything. What it’s being used for is just as important? Can someone tell me why all every the Bridgeport advocate for kids and the school system weren’t/isn’t demanding computers for the Port kids? Other school systems are zooming their classes, while our council is having difficulty zooming meetings and BOE is giving out packets to its students.

  10. Words do matter, especially coming from a president of the US. It may not be Lysol but when a black man injects the word white and claim, they will not listen to a black man appears racist. What about the part the Trump says that you will need to talk to a doctor about it. Did anyone ask Lennie if he consulted with a doctor before posting his picture? What he was trying to convey and why I stopped trying to figure out.

  12. *** “Stupid is as Stupid does”! Anyone who puts any type of serious though or really believes in any of the child-minded things that Trump says is “doomed” to a life of “ignorance”. ***

  13. *** I’ve noticed too, that OIB tends to attract a few “child-minded” bloggers from time to time, who seem to forget their much needed meds. at times. Sometimes it really shows by their incoherent rants & ignorant blogs about the topics @ hand & other times, only the blogger knows what the hell their talking about ***JUST SAYING***

  14. This is what the physician actually said in the Forbes article that Ron Mackey provided:

    “But even before the President’s comments at his press conference, a CDC study released earlier this week noted that calls to U.S. poison centers for cleaners and disinfectants rose significantly compared with the same period over the past 2 years. It also noted a significant increase in March of the past 2 years for both types of cleaners. Another study from the Washington Poison Center also showed a 23% increase in exposures to cleaners compared to 2019.”

    Anyone who has ventured to a supermarket in recent weeks has seen empty shelves where items such as bleach and disinfectant is normally displayed. The supply chain for these items have been disrupted by the increased use of them during the pandemic.

    The article Ron Mackey provided as evidence that President Trump is advising people to ingest bleach or disinfectant, “Calls To Poison Centers Spike After The President’s Comments About Using Disinfectants To Treat Coronavirus”, clearly stated that the spike in calls to poison control centers actually began when the pandemic came upon us and people began to use more bleach and disinfectant, not suddenly when Trump made his remark.

    President Trump did not suggest that people ingest bleach or disinfectant. He answered a reporter’s question, acknowledging the proven effectiveness of bleach and disinfectant and turned to Dr. Deborah Birx and made an incoherent (and foolish) remark seeming to ask if there was something that could be developed for internal use that was similarly effective. Birx avoided eye contact and did not acknowledge his comment.

    The media reaction was disgraceful but predictable. The media has created a narrative for the Democrat party. The narrative, as usual, is being presented as hard news by most media.

    1. We understand the media creates a narrative, be it left or right. But for you to create a narrative on OIB that Trump attempted to make a lame, witty, humorous remark, is humorous. 🙂

      I won’t call OIB hard news at times, still waiting for Lennie to post the Saffan and Gil deal But if it’s anything likes some of my posts, I might not get a reply. Or by my post moderation, it will be “relatively soon. 🙂

    2. *** Good point on the 99% increase in disinfectants since the start of this pandemic, however you must admit that what Trump said at that Cov-19 briefing was not well thought out once again! It is what it is, sometimes, no? ***

  15. Tom White, you make your post at 10:19pm, and just about every Sunday talk show showed the video of 45 and disinfectant and light and the guest all disagree with what Tom White being white said. Tom White, on 60 Minutes tonight April 26 they ran a story about a firm in Canada that had a system called “blue for” that knew that COVID-19 was spreading on Dec. 31, 2019 while in the middle of March 2020 President 45 was still saying that COVID-19 was under control, Tom, what the hell was he doing? Hey Tom, try to Google 60 Minutes about Canada and then tell us why America is so far behind Canada?
