https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/apr/24/revealed-leader-group-peddling-bleach-cure-lobbied-trump-coronavirusAnother advocate of bleach as a miracle cure who has been seeking to interest Trump in the treatment is Alan Keyes. He is a former ambassador and adviser to Ronald Reagan who ran unsuccessfully as a Republican candidate for the US Senate and on three occasions for the US presidency.
Keyes has featured Genesis II bleach products as a miracle cure on his online conservative TV show, Lets Talk America.
It is not known whether Keyes has discussed MMS with Trump. But the two men have overlapping interests.
Not only have they both featured in Republican party and presidential politics, but they were both leading proponents of the Birther conspiracy theory that wrongfully suggested Barack Obama was born outside America.
Keyess TV show is hosted on IAMtv, a rightwing web-based channel. IAMtvs other leading anchor is Bob Sisson, who has also advertised Genesis II bleach products on air.
In one of his shows, first reported by the Daily Beast, Sisson held up two bottles of Genesis II MMS and said: Gonna meet Trump, its only a matter of time. President Trumps gonna invite us up there, when he finds out about this stuff.
On Friday Trump claimed he was being sarcastic in his remarks but there is no evidence to back up that claim and he appeared entirely serious as he made them.

First,
"Another advocate of bleach as a miracle cure who has been seeking to interest Trump in the treatment is Alan Keyes. He is a former ambassador and adviser to Ronald Reagan who ran unsuccessfully as a Republican candidate for the US Senate and on three occasions for the US presidency."
A candidate for Senate who lost in a landslide of historic proportions. There, fixed it.
Keyes' TV show is hosted on IAMtv, a rightwing web-based channel. IAMtvs other leading anchor is Bob Sisson, who has also advertised Genesis II bleach products on air.
In other words, hardly anybody knows he's still alive.
Hope that helps a bit.

(1,648 posts)However, I once got so frustrated with that damn toenail fungus, that I came up with the idea of an industrial intervention. Desperation had set in.
I used 1/3 bleach, 2/3 hot water, and a lot of Epsom Salt to soak my feet in for about 30 minutes for about 5 days.
No, it did not do anything to even weaken that damn toenail fungus.
No amputation or medical attention was needed for this failure.
