The host of your clip points out at 0:49 that Trump "was turning to medical experts".

Or as Dr. Birx, one of those experts, put it, “When he gets new information, he likes to talk that through out loud and really have that dialogue — and so that’s what dialogue he was having. I think he just saw the information at the time immediately before the press conference and he was still digesting that information.”

Or as White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany puts it, he was taken "out of context".

Or can we take him at his own word? Skip ahead to 2:15, when the reporter says "...clarify your comment about injections of disinfectants.." and gets overridden by "I was asking a question sarcastically to reporters like you to see what would happen"



Really, "I had just been told about disinfectants and was brainstorming" would not be an embarrassing response there.

So the President and two key officials variously claim that he was sarcastic, taken out of context and still processing information when he was supposed to be disseminating information. And we've got your fanboy claiming that he was consulting medical experts, when the woman claiming he was still processing the information he had apparently just been given was one of those experts being turned to.

I'm sorry, but those briefings are for giving information and guidance. If Trump, Birx, McEnany and Crowder, all presumably Trump supporters, have unambiguous statements that essentially call all the others liars, how can you see the problem as being anyone outside that group?

I'm interested. Does that make me very nasty and therefore negate all the conflicting statements above? Really, freebeard- you posted Crowder's video. His take directly conflicts with those of Trump, Birx and McEnany. Please discuss.
