If most reasonable people are in agreement with one interpretation and a few nuts are desperately attempting to reframe the issue in a way that absolutely contradicts the standard interpretation, it isn't the common understanding that's unreasonable. Good luck with defending the indefensible, you guys will need it.
I am assuming you think your interpretation is the reasonable one,
And facts be damned.
Review the video, again, with your one good eye.
Well, your only eye.
Who told you about my childhood eye injury?

Sorry,
I disagree.
He asked a question.
It wasn't a suggestion, with the belief he was in a position to implement, himself.
It was a suggestion that *others*, who are more informed, could investigate the possibility.
It is a distinction that only some, like myself, with a humungous intellect, could discern,
But discern it I have.
Once again, it wasn't an edict.
For example,
He didn't say:
"Hey, you there,
In the front,
Yes, you, you lefty journalist, you.
Come up here.
We are going to strap you down and try something."
It is like when I ask Ezras: "Could Fnord be any more wrong?"
It is a god darn question,
For crying out loud!
How silly it would be if I said:
I suggest that Fnord is more wronger than the average bear.
When we all know that no bear could ever reach that level of "wrongness".
It was *rhetorical*.
*Not* to be taken *literally*.
It was "brainstorming".
I used to do that all the time when I was working.
Oi Vey.

Why would Trump deign to ask if taking poison would cure COVID19, somehow?
Anybody with any common sense wouldn’t even think of doing something like drinking Clorox.

To be clear, I'm no Trump fan, who would be... spreading the smelliness
It's quite clear he meant it as a brainstorming question, he is narcissist enough to believe that it's ok for him to do that publically.
He has made many other mistakes that should be focussed on instead of this tabloid level drivel.
Or is it this level that sways minds most effectively?

Why would Trump try to prompt his own supporters to commit suicide? He has an election to win

And that's the real issue right there: he shouldn't discuss such nonsense publically, not so much because it makes him look like an ignorant clown, but because plenty of people are stupid enough to try something like this. It's irresponsible.

People with narcissistic tendencies dont generally care about the impact of their actions on others though.
How have we become so unthinking, that sections of society will actually try something like this. That people need to be warned, by news stories not to injest a toxic substance even though disinfectants have warnings printed on them. The mind boggles.
