I suggest that every Trump follower who thinks hydroxychlorocrap is the answer should be encouraged — no, forced — to take it. Preferably in massive doses. The rest of us can be a control group. If the stuff works, there will then for the first time in America in recent years actually be more Republicans than Democrats, and they can repeal healthcare, cut taxes on the rich to zero and pay for it by eliminating Social Security and Medicare.
