Sorry, let me spell it out for you;

I refer to this incident colloquially as "The time trump told us to inject bleach", which would be more accurately described as "The time the president of america was so balls-on stupid that he rambled for five minutes about doctors using bleach and UV disinfectant to fight Covid, a ramble so incoherent that the CDC had to issue a warning to ignore what it appeared he was suggesting."

I have no desire to treat the "intelligence" behind that statement - or those with full throated support of his incredible genius - with any authority.

The "White Power" was the evil (though, quite stupid in its own right) part. The "Bleach" was the "stupid" part of my comment, and I stand by it.

You mean the time a president (a non medical expert who doesn’t claim to be) tried to theorize about mechanisms by which a covid treatment could be delivered using ordinary language? And all of those mechanisms are real forms of treatment in other contexts?
