'I cannot stress this enough: This will kill you.' Fox News host Neil Cavuto was shocked by Trump's announcement that he's taking hydroxychloroquine to prevent coronavirus.


Fox News host Neil Cavuto was stunned by President Donald Trump's announcement on Monday that he was taking hydroxychloroquine as a preventive treatment for coronavirus.
A recent study by the Department of Veterans Affairs found hydroxychloroquine is linked to higher death rates for VA patients hospitalized with the disease.
Citing the study, Cavuto warned: "If you are in a risky population here, and you are taking this as a preventative treatment to ward off the virus or in a worst-case scenario you are dealing with the virus, and you are in this vulnerable population, it will kill you. I cannot stress enough: This will kill you."
"This is a leap that should not be taken casually by those watching at home who are assuming, well, the president of the United States says it's OK," he added. "I only make this not to make a political point here, but a life-and-death point. Be very, very careful."

1. Neil, Neil, it's okay. Really.

Let Trump be Trump. Maybe he should double dose. Wouldn't hurt, right?

[Sneederbunk]

27. He could wash down the pill with a glass of bleach.

[brush]

32. We all know trump is an idiot, but someone pls tell me he didn't tweet this.

I've been taking #hydroxychloriquine! Fox's Neil Cavuto says I should stop! He's an idiot! He says it could kill me! Wrong! The VA study looked at diffrent ways the drug killed veterans! NOT PRESIDENTS! I'M NOT A VETERAN! So that drug can't kill me!

[empedocles]

2. Cavuto gets these occasional 'reality spasms'.

'We need all the help we can get.'

[dewsgirl]

12. THIS!

[FarPoint]

3. I won't interfere with a physician and patient's plan of care.

It does make me giggle...

[still_one]

4. I suspect that this POS is lying

[rurallib]

6. you ain't the only one, still_one

I want to see him taking it daily on TV. Hell, I'd even turn on FUX for that.

This guy couldn't tell the truth if Gawd hisownself was standing over him with a beautiful, beautiful flaming sword

[RobinA]

11. That Was My

first reaction. Unless Michael Jackson’s doctor is out of jail, what doctor is going the prescribe this stuff to the POTUS?

[still_one]

33. Even assuming he received the Rx, doesn't mean he is taking it

[subterranean]

22. That is my default reaction to anything he says.

There is nothing -- and I mean nothing -- he wouldn't lie about.

[FakeNoose]

5. We can call this physician-assisted suicide, am I right?

Calling Doctor Welby!

[kacekwl]

7. Here lying.

He's incapable of telling the truth.

[not_the_one]

8. There are only two explanations...

1. He is lying. So what else is new. Demand a doctor verify that he is taking it, although he doesn't have COVID-19, and then demand that the Dr that prescribed a "quack cure" for the illness THAT HE DOESN'T HAVE, have his license revoked.

Can't do that? Well demand it anyway so he has to start answering questions. That is one of his favorite tactics.

2. He has it. Why would you be taking a highly questionable "cure" remedy for an illness that you DON'T have?


I'm hoping for #2. So sue me.

But I bet its # 1.

[paleotn]

9. Napoleon once said

When your opponent is making a mistake, don’t interrupt. That would be rude. Drink up, Donnie!

[oldsoftie]

10. #1- I dont believe for a minute Trump is taking it. #2- Cavuto is about to get slammed.

AGAIN
And here comes Fox Nation for him too. How DARE he criticize dear leader

[sop]

15. It'll be hard to distinguish Trump's "parody" tweeting from the real thing.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

13. It's like Trump is trying to kill his own followers...

... so it makes sense that anyone at Fox would be alarmed.

[bucolic_frolic]

14. Neil, I think thou dost protesteth too much

[dreamland]

16. Could it be that he's so afraid to get the virus, that he is taking

..the hydroxy-- pill in order to prevent getting a virus and because it's too dangerous to take his doctor is giving him a placebo instead? I bet that Pence contracted the virus and it's spooking him big time.

[groundloop]

17. No, it's not that. He and Cushner have stock in the company that manufactures it.

[regnaD kciN]

18. Does anyone REALLY believe Donnie is taking it...?

If he's been taking it for several weeks, he'd be dead by now. It's just another lie to back up his previous one: "See, it's perfectly safe, no matter what the 'doctors' and 'scientists' say. In fact, I've been taking it myself, so that proves it!" I believe he's been taking doses of hydorxychloriquine about as much as I believe "Obamagate" -- it's just another whopper to distract from the deserved blame he's getting for allowing over 50,000 Americans to die needlessly due to his inaction.

[thesquanderer]

28. re: "If he's been taking it for several weeks, he'd be dead by now"

No... it rarely kills people (people with certain conditions take it regularly)... but there is some risk of it.

[LisaL]

34. And the danger seems to depend on the dose.

If he is actually taking anything, we don't know how much.

[truthisfreedom]

19. His doctor is obviously giving him a placebo and assumed he'd never talk about it.

But, our president is very special and is hell-bent on destroying his base.

So take as many as you want, folks! Trust your president! Remember, he's the guy whose doctor snuck real vegetables into his mashed potatoes! Remember that? HIS DOCTORS LIE TO HIM TO KEEP HIM CALM.

[cayugafalls]

20. I wonder if he crushes it and snorts it along with his Adderall?

He could call it a Bean-Ball and hang out with the cool kids.

[olddad65]

21. Donald Death. Killing innocent people is what he is all about

[Massacure]

23. "The VA study looked at diffrent ways the drug killed veterans! NOT PRESIDENTS! I'M NOT A VETERAN!"

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. I'M NOT A VETERAN" has to be the most honest thing Trump has said his entire time in office. On the other hand, the stupid... it burns.

[BumRushDaShow]

25. That was from a parody account

(but then again it really did seem plausible)

[Massacure]

29. Oh wow. Got me.

[BumRushDaShow]

30. It's just like The Onion

and Borowitz that can no longer claim to be "parody" because the truth has been stranger than the fiction!

[truthisfreedom]

24. Tomorrow: "The president was obviously being sarcastic. Everyone can see that."

[TheCowsCameHome]

26. Shut up, Neil.

There is no downside.

[Miguelito Loveless]

31. They are giving him a placebo

If he is taking anything at all. I doubt any doctor wants face charges of assassinating Trump.

[cstanleytech]

35. My bet is Trump is taking a miniscule amount in order to say he does to try and reverse

some of the damage all the studies that have come out that show this drug to be a complete failure at treating the virus after he stupidly proclaimed it as being able to do so.

[world wide wally]

36. How long does it take to kill you?

Asking for a friend
