© REUTERS/Carlo Allegri Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton Trump in recent weeks has repeatedly promoted the use of the anti-malarial drug hydroxychloroquine as a potential cure or treatment for COVID-19, contrary to the advice of the Food and Drug Administration and other government agencies that have warned against its use. He’s even claimed he’s been taking it himself as protection against the virus.Clinton called out Trump on Friday, tweeting “the president needs to stop playing a doctor on TV.” The former secretary of state shared reporting from The Washington Post on a new analysis that discovered that taking the drug is ”linked to increased risk of death in coronavirus patients.”
It was Clinton’s latest in a long line of attacks on Trump’s fumbled response to the pandemic that has now killed more than 97,000 people nationwide.
Slideshow by photo servicesOn Monday, Trump’s Democratic rival in the 2016 election tweeted that “Americans deserve a president who will listen to science and act decisively to mitigate the pandemic ― not waste time, peddle fakes cures, and wish it away.”
In March, as cases soared worldwide, Clinton hit Trump on his favorite social media platform for “turning to racist rhetoric to distract from his failures to take the coronavirus seriously early on.” She also advised Americans not to take medical advice “from a man who looked directly at a solar eclipse” and has repeatedly urged people to vote Trump out in November.
Hillary Clinton ✔ @HillaryClinton H.... Quote -" The president is turning to racist rhetoric to distract from his failures to take the coronavirus seriously early on, make tests widely available, and adequately prepare the country for a period of crisis.
Don't fall for it. Don't let your friends and family fall for it."
Comment - As the nation's most distrusted and detested Elitist - H... is correct - "Don't Fall for It"!!!
Anyone not squarely in her elitist (non-racist) corner is Racist by definition - as are all "deplorables". H... and her hatred of Middle America is well and truly on display in this pandering for support for her candidacy - and she is still running. And playing the racist card because she has nothing to offer that is constructive or substantive.
She and al sharpton would make a fine couple - she should dump bill and go for It!
