Title: Has trump disinfectant speech been misconstrued?

Has trump disinfectant speech been misconstrued? Does anyone believe his words are twisted to fit a different picture. I just watch the video and he used the word 'supposing' at the beginning of the speech.

Here is exactly what he said, with no twisting.

Quote
...
And then I said, "supposing you brought the light inside the body?", which you can do either through the skin or in some other way. And I think you said you are going to test that too. Sounds interesting.

Right, and then I see the disinfectant where it knocks it out in a minute -- one minute. And, is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning? Because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs. So, it would be interesting to check that -- so that you are going to have to use medical doctors. But it sounds interesting to me.
...

Simply beginning a previous sentence with "supposing" doesn't change the meaning of the rest of what he said.

Trump is clearly out of his league here. I don't know if he is smarter or dumber than previous presidents, but he likes to talk and that gets him in trouble.

Twain and Lincoln definitely see through the same lense. "Tis better to be silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt". I guess it is time he takes the back seat and do more listening than talking
