Biden Compares Trump Taking Hydroxychloroquine to ‘Injecting Clorox,’ Claims No Doctors Support It

During a Yahoo News virtual town hall presumed Democrat Presidential nominee Joe Biden went on a rant, saying that it is “totally irresponsible” for President Trump to be taking hydroxychloroquine as a preventive against the Coronavirus.

He compared Trump taking the drug, HCQ, that has been prescribed to people for 65 years by doctors, to injecting himself with Clorox as well as claiming that no doctors support it.

TPUSA chief creative officer Benny pointed out that HCQ is on the World Health Organization’s List of Essential Medicines and one of the the safest and most effective medicines. Clorox is not on there. He wondered if Biden would criticize the WHO next.

Clorox is not on there..

So is @JoeBiden going to criticize the WHO now too after criticizing Trump for defunding them?https://t.co/7OCcKbEaCV

Biden also claimed that Vice President Mike Pence had said that he wasn’t take it in an attempt to make a dig at the president, which the VP said earlier. Pence did say that he “wouldn’t hesitate to take the counsel of my doctor. Any American should do likewise.”

Earlier today, Biden had said that “We need a president who believes in science.” YAF president Scott Walker replied to that jab by saying that “Science tells us that an unborn child is a human being.”

Biden said during the 2020 Democrat debates that if elected, he would codify Roe v. Wade into federal law and restore federal funding to Planned Parenthood and other reproductive-care providers for health services other than abortion.

He also said that he no longer supports the Hyde Amendment, which bans the use of federal funds for abortion except in cases of rape, incest or life-threatening circumstances.
