Roger Marshall is supposed to be a doctor.
He is currently running to replace Pat Roberts.
He is a rep now.
Kansas always attracts the dumbasses.
There is a guy named Bob Hamilton a plumber and says he wants to go to the senate to help trump drain the swamp with his plumbers tools.

Kansas Congressman Roger Marshall disclosed he is proactively taking the anti-malarial drug hydroxychloroquine to ward off the coronavirus, despite a government warning that it shouldnt be used outside of hospital or research settings.
As spokesman for Marshall, a physician who is running for U.S. Senate, confirmed Tuesday that the western Kansas representative is taking the drug prophylactically, along with his parents, siblings and wife. The Wall Street Journal first reported Marshalls use.
President Donald Trump has touted the drug throughout the pandemic, but it has potentially fatal heart side effects. The drug is decades old and is typically used to treat lupus and rheumatoid arthritis.
Possible side effects include heart rhythm problems, severely low blood pressure and muscle or nerve damage. A New York hospital has published a report that most of the 84 COVID-19 patients treated with hydroxychloroquine and the antibiotic azithromycin developed heart rhythm abnormalities.

(11,495 posts)how many people are going to die because trump "said" he was taking HCQ and so they decide to take it also?
I don't believe he is really taking it, he is just trying to increase the sales so he can get money from it, one way or another. I wonder if he realizes the victims will be his voters?
