That was exactly my take as well. I think it was all a dog and pony show, or if he was indeed taking that shit he's even more stupid than I thought.
There is 0 doubt that the only reason he claimed he took it is so if he doesn't catch it, he can say it was because of the fact he took it.
I thought about that angle as well, Jules. He may claim that "Hey, I took HCQ and didn't catch covid-19". To which my response would be, Well yeah, jackass, ...you didn't get AIDS either, but I doubt it had anything to do with taking HCQ.
Can you imagine what is going through the head of the lawyer writing the brief. How embarrassing. One of my best friends is a lawyer in Georgetown, I'd love to get his take on this.
Meanwhile Trump retweeted from a New Mexico Republican who said "the only good Democratic is a dead Democrat" and that Virginia governor Northam and Michigan governor Whitmire are traitors who should be hanged or shot. Looking forward to their meeting.
This twit of a POTUS evidently still doesn't grasp the fact that we have a Constitution/Bill of Rights.
I believe most of the people who barf out "against my rights!" or "read the constitution" actually don't know anything about rights, nor have anything beyond a basic understanding of anything in the constitution (i.e., they know there is a constitution, and there is a bill of rights, but actually couldn't name you more than 2 of them or explain what any of it means. And in most cases I bet they confuse the Constitution with the Declaration of Independence). But they're talking points (for lack of a better word) for the ignorant. They sound important and knowledgeable when they use them, but their argument crumbles to the ground once any kind of counter is presented.
My personal favorite thing he's done is when he talks about how much he hates social media/wants to shut down his twitter...yet doesn't. Because he knows that A: they don't censor the conservative voice (that's just a talking point to get idiots to believe it, and they do), and B: it's his biggest audience and biggest group of people he can manipulate with his lies/rants/conspiracy shit.
It's like he doesn't know that Minneapolis is on fire....Maybe they should change the name of Minneapolis to Benghazi. Then the GOP would care and be able to blame it on Obama.
If he does, they'll sack the White House too...bullying is not leadership...looting is wrong but murder by cop is grounds for revolt guaranteed
