Okay, Some people have wondered why you would mention this discredited hoax. Better?

Believe what you like, I suggest that trusting a biased source like Snopes is suboptimal. What Tim Pool uses is NewsGuard: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NewsGuard. An interesting experiment I don't care to do would be to turn NewsGuard on Snopes.

Maybe someone who floated the rumor in the first place would promote a quack cure for a few dollars, but it is unlikely that someone who loves our country as much as our President would do so. Occam Razor: more likely someone is spreading FUD.
