Pro Tip: If you find yourself bleating, "But he literally said that," you are demonstrating that you don't understand how words work. Meaning requires context. It never matters what someone LITERALLY said. It only matters what they meant, which context can help you discern.

I watched the full briefing and saw the words spoken in context. He literally said it and meant it. And it was disastrously dumb.

“Literally said it” is how you signal that you don’t know how words work. In context, it was obvious he was not talking about mainlining Clorox and Lysol. You are not that dumb.

I’ll clarify the comment: I saw the full briefing and watched his words spoken in context. He meant what he said literally, not sarcastically. And it was disastrously dumb. You know it but defend the indefensible anyway. No matter; history is rarely kind to imbecility.

Your public declaration that you can read the mind of a stranger, and you saw 2+2=9 in there, is noted. I will perform the same feat of magic and declare that I can read your mind and you are not so dumb as to think a president publicly recommended drinking Clorox. Am I wrong?

The video is there for anyone to observe the stupidity of what he said. Mind-reading isn’t required. If there’s a good explanation or justification for it outside his ham-handed “sarcasm” excuse, I haven’t seen it.

You’re probably a smart guy, so my best guess of what is happening is that you are locked in a fake news silo of the left. You have to see the right’s debunking to know how bad it is.

If his videotaped comments were as innocuous as you suggest I question why he walked them back as sarcasm the next day and falsely framed them as a question to a reporter, rather than a question to Dr. Birx et al. He didn’t suggest injections but what he said was plainly stupid.

To wit, today the man just referred to Pulitzer Prizes as “Nobles.” Trump’s manifest lack of intellect is inarguable and I remain nonplused by why his imbecility is the hill on which so many otherwise respectable conservatives have chosen to die.

No one voted for his spelling. His critics seem to have some sort of obsession with his personality. Bad priorities. Conservatives look at the "promises kept" part which is a strong case.
