The most gullible man in America is selling another fake cure for coronavirus because two people sold him on the idea

You'd think by now that President Trump would learn to pay more attention to detail on what's being passed off as "miracle" cures for COVID-19. Unfortunately, he won't.

According to reports, Trump, on the advice of Ben Carson, representing the Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD), and Mike Lindell, founder-CEO of MyPillow.com, is touting oleandrin as a possible cure.

While Lindell's highly advertised product retails for around $30 or better, depending on where you shop (yes, it's available at stores, not just via mail order), Trump comes off sounding like a famous huckster from another era.....

Yep, Mr. Eustace C. Haney (Pat Buttram) from Green Acres might've inspired Trump's persistent con games.

According to those same reports, there is no evidence (a recurring theme with Trump) that oleandrin is a credible cure for coronavirus, which tells us, that, well, it isn't. Where Lindell & Carson got their information is unknown, but they did share that information with Trump at a briefing last month.

All this says is that Trump is looking for something else to distract voters from the scandal surrounding Postmaster General Louis DeJoyless and his sabotage of the Postal Service, at Trump's command. Meanwhile, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has called a halt to lawmakers' summer hiatus for an emergency session, hoping to get DeJoyless to meet with the House to explain his & Trump's latest scam.

Yes, the Postal Service has been bleeding money, has been for years. However, dismantling equipment and removing mailboxes (which now won't happen again until after election day after much complaining) is not the answer. It's a means to an end, that end being, getting Trump re-elected by suppressing votes by any means necessary. Here's to the House dismissing DeJoyless and sending him off to jail for---wait for it----fraud.

Hydrogen peroxide actually works wonders for this and many other illnesses. No virus can exist in a pure oxygenized environment. Taking a hot bath with about 2 cups of 35% should do the trick. The hot bath opens the pores, while the peroxide gets into your cells and fights the virus.

I've used a different solution for common colds.

A hot shower opens the pores. Vicks Vapo-Rub under the nose allows for free breathing that breathing strips might not be able to support under such circumstances.

Better to put the Vapo rub on the soles of the feet and put on a pair of socks before going to bed. It will keep your nasal passages clear and you'll sleep well.

My late mother taught me that the Vapo-Rub on the hollow of the neck, around the throat, would work, too.
