Donald Trump, the mentally unfit President is back at it again, this time on Twitter and Facebook to promote once again the drug "hydroxychloroquine" as a treatment for the COVID-19 virus. Trump used a video of a group of doctors who promoted the idea that the drug was ok to use. Trump had promoted the drug early on when the virus first started to take hold an even after the scientific community and its studies showed the drug can do more harm than good in treating the symptoms of COVID-19. Trump also used the occasion to criticize Dr. Anthony Fauci once again.
The pandemic, in its fifth month and in a "surge" mode at the present time has taken the lives of over 150,000 Americans while the President dilly-dallies with sick comments and still lacks the leadership needed to address the pandemic. Is it any wonder that the United States leads the world with the most cases of the virus and the most deaths? And to make the situation more alarming, Donald Trump Jr., joined his father on Twitter and Facebook to promote the same sickness.
But Twitter and Facebook stepped up to the plate, recognized the contents as potentially harmful information and removed the content. And of course, Trump and his so called conservatives called the action "censorship." They always find an excuse to defend their lies. The President's continued fake news about the drug this late in the virus battle is a good indication just how sick this President has become. The mentally unfit President is a grave danger to America, its people and the foundation of democracy and democratic values.
