    Anyone who's taking this opportunity to blame him for the actions of a couple morons is also a neanderthal.

    Yea American's don't want to know that there are drugs that are working and that we've ordered 33 MILLION pills because the evidence so far is promising. I'm sure most would rather just think there is no hope. You guys kill hate hate hate even when sensible logic should override it.

    Trump does. Every time he steps up to podium he blames everyone but himself, even hospitals who aren’t getting his promised supplies. They’re going to centers then to highest bidders including other countries.

    Trump ran a campaign of hate and division, and governs with the same. He gets what he deserves.

    If the president of the united states addressed the nation and told the public at large to go jump off a bridge, offering no advice as to why they should to explain why such was a valid course of action, simply that they should, would he then be responsible for any member of the public deciding to follow such advice, and did indeed jump off a bridge?

    And he was attacked relentlessly by countless political opponents before he ever took office. The attacks were occurring right after he won the election, back when Barack Obama was still president of the united states and supposedly still setting the tone for the nation.

    Good point.

    The story in the OP does absolutely nothing to help Trump's "cause".

    Oh BS, you spent days and pages claiming that. FYI that's what quotation marks indicate. Evidently you did not spend much time "researching" that. It has become clear for all to see, you are simply incapable of admitting when you are CLEARLY mistaken.

    It proves people are very stupid and gives us the opportunity to laugh at all those who swore they must be trump voters, so there is that.

    The point your meme was trying to make was that those who watch FOX news are gullible enough to believe that a wasp nest was a secret camera, and that they can easily be tricked into knocking them down, causing injury or death. Since no reasonable person would believe it, posting it only revealed your own gullibility. Congrats.

    You should be on Trumps payroll. Every time you treat your fellow Americans like the enemy because of their beliefs, you are useful. If Americans respected different beliefs and respectfully discussed our differences, Trump or those like him would have no chance of being elected. You are helping him bigley! Sadly, Trump is an accurate reflection of the American people and your post is an example of that.

    Your cheap attempt at an insult backfired as it was your side that used the meme.

    On topic, the dem that drank fish tank cleaner does not represent the party.

    Turns out she is a major Democrat donor and was running on what she found about from a local liberal Facebook page.

    Actually, it's worse. She has a history of domestic violence, enough that the police had to be called, and it's not at all certain the husband knew she had put the poison in his blended beverage.

    Washington Free Beacon published an investigative piece about the deceased man. According to his friends, he was a retired mechanical engineer who was reportedly very well-educated, smart and even-keeled:

    These people describe Lenius as intelligent and levelheaded, not prone to the sort of reckless and impulsive behavior. Three people who knew Lenius well paint a picture of a troubled marriage characterized by Wanda Lenius’ explosive anger.

    “What bothers me about this is that Gary was a very intelligent man, a retired mechanical engineer who designed systems for John Deere in Waterloo, Iowa, and I really can’t see the scenario where Gary would say, ‘Yes, please, I would love to drink some of that Koi fish tank cleaner,'” one of his close friends told the Washington Free Beacon. “It just doesn’t make any sense.”…​

    “I would like people to know that Gary was not the fool that some of the media stories and comments are depicting him to be,” said the same friend. “I really don’t think Gary knew what he was taking.”​

    Gary and his wife Wanda met and married in 2000 (both had been married and divorced). Their marriage there was a domestic violence call to their home. She hit him and Wanda was charged with a misdemeanor (they reconciled and she was not found guilty based on his testimony).

    Wanda also had troubles at work. She filed a lawsuit against her employer (where Gary also worked) claiming she’d been discriminated against. During a deposition in that case, Wanda said she was “furious all the time.” She said she wanted Gary to retire so they could get away from the company.

    Gary did retire in 2012 and they moved to Arizona. Gary took up making remote-controlled model airplanes. But the planes became a source of trouble in their marriage. Wanda would visit him at a local park where people would meet to fly their planes and she would routinely “berate Gary in public.”

    Wanda destroyed several of his planes because he came home late for a meal. Recently, Wanda destroyed the screen to his laptop because she was angry he had upgraded software on her computer.

    So what did happen the day that Gary took a lethal dose of chloroquine? When asked if they’d had a discussion about it beforehand, Wanda said, “No. I mean, it was really kind of a spur of the moment thing.” A friend of Gary’s said Wanda would often make “a cocktail of vitamins for Gary.” He was in the habit of taking what she prepared for him.

    They ingested chloroquine which is what Trump was pushing. The husband likely died because it was in powder form as opposed to pill form, giving him a full dose very quickly.

    I blame him for pushing an unproven drug on people, giving them false hope and encouraging them to demand the treatment instead of following their doctors.
