    If Trump is taking anything, I doubt it is really hydroxychloroquine. Probably plying him with a smartie or tic tac to placate him. Giving him his big boy medicine.

    China mocks Donald Trump as governing by 'witchcraft' after revelation he is taking hydroxychloroquine – as White House press secretary says he was just being 'transparent' and is forced to tell people NOT to take it without prescription
    • China bashed Trump for touting 'witchcraft' to prevent and threat coronavirus
    • Hu Xijin, editor-in-chief of China Communist Party's official publication who is close with the Party, made the allegations in a now-deleted tweet on Tuesday
    • 'President Trump is leading the US's struggle against pandemic with witchcraft, and as a result, more than 90,000 people have died' Hu wrote
    • Trump revealed Monday he's taken hydroxychloroquine for around two weeks
    • White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany said Trump shared that health information to be 'transparent' with the American people
    • Emphasized people should not take the drug unless they are give a prescription
    • White House Doctor Sean Conley said he believes for Trump the gain from using hydroxychloroquine outweighed its risk – but did not say if he prescribed it
    • Following the admission House Speaker Pelosi told CNN she would 'rather he not be taking something that has not been approved by the scientists'
    • Pelosi pointed out Trump's weight and age - in what Twitter users saw as a dig
    • Her warning came after Trump's 2019 physical revealed he had a BMI of of 30.4

    We moved the embassy to Jerusalem. Can we move the White House to China?

    I understand what your saying, my comments had to do with a Letter from a doctor and really and how some were speculating on it, which is fine, i guess.
    There are billions of doc patient relationships and docs are like mechanics, they are not infallible for sure. Ever watch the med commercials on TV they all cover their rear ends because like with any med there can be side effects. I really dont care what trump does with his doc and if people want to go on the black market and buy that stuff, there nuts, just like those who but all sorts of streets drugs.

    There is speculation because Trump is a renowned liar. His doctors have been renowned liars. I care because he is the president and he is hawking dangerous medications to Americans. It is not only irresponsible but down right reckless.

    but how did we get here?

    1) trump lies every day; he lies all the time
    2) the white house knows trump lies all the time and he has no credibility
    3) trump says he's been taking a drug that he's been pushing hard
    4) the white house released a memo because trump lies all the time and they were trying to make his claim credible
    5) the memo did not say trump was taking the drug, so then, see 1)

    CC, would you take the med without the advise of a doctor? Most wouldn't. My neighbor is a nurse on the front line IC unit, and she told me many were taking it on doctor orders, including her. If I disagreed with her, I would criticize her for it as its her own personal decision. Docs are prescribing that stuff because the medical field has used it, not because the idiot in the Whitehouse. You realize that there are idiot docs, and others in the med field. If truth be known docs are prescribing meds all the people don't need.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    The doctor's letter is specifically worded to make it sound like he prescribed it, so that Trump acolytes can claim he did, without actually saying he did so that he's at no risk about lying about having prescribed something.

    When someone assiduously avoids saying the most direct thing (i.e. "I prescribed hydroxychloroquine for President Donald J. Trump"), there's a reason for that. Trump may or may not be taking the medication (I wouldn't put anything past him, either taking a risky medication or lying about taking it) but this letter is just a gimmick.

    It's another case of TrumpCo trying to pull the wool over the eyes of people, not realizing it's pretty easy to spot when he lies. It's when his mouth is open and words are coming out.

    Why does he need to? He's his doctor and Trump has said it publicly that he's taking it.

    I mean I get it. I see the new narrative of the leftwing media pushing he's lying about taking it. I'm sure everyone believes it. I choose not to believe the media.

    Since you and others that believe the media narrative, I doubt it's obvious.
