It’s difficult to say what would be more recklessly deranged: the idea that Donald Trump would take hydroxychloroquine as a coronavirus preventative when it provides no such protection and kills some people, or the idea that Trump would pretend he’s taking it in order to con his gullible supporters into taking it so he can cash in.

Either way, the whole thing keeps getting uglier for him. In the face of mounting controversy, Donald Trump is now conveniently claiming that he’s reached the end of his prescribed hydroxychloroquine regimen; that’s surreal considering there is no hydroxychloroquine regimen for preventing coronavirus.

In any case, one of Trump’s closest allies, the corrupt President of Brazil, is also a major pusher of hydroxychloroquine. How’s that working out? The coronavirus crisis has gotten so awful in Brazil, Bloomberg is reporting that the Trump regime is now banning travel from Brazil to the United States.

As with Donald Trump in the United States, Brazil’s Bolsonaro has done a number of things terribly wrong to make the coronavirus crisis worse in his country. Pushing hydroxychloroquine is just one of them. But wow does this keep getting uglier, both in terms of overall negligence, and in terms of the idiocy of pushing hydroxychloroquine as a supposed coronavirus miracle cure.
