Trump said, "A question that probably some of you are thinking of if you’re totally into that world, which I find to be very interesting. So, supposedly we hit the body with a tremendous, whether it’s ultraviolet or just very powerful light, and I think you said that hasn’t been checked, but you’re going to test it. 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. (To Bryan) And I think you said you’re going to test that, too. Sounds interesting, right?

"And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in 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’d be interesting to check that, so that you’re going to have to use medical doctors with, but it sounds interesting to me. So, we’ll see, but the whole concept of the light, the way it kills it in one minute. That’s pretty powerful."

An honest media would have said, "Where can we learn more about these technologies? Who is developing them? Are they close to being available to the public? Will they be ready in time to help with COVID?" Etc.

But we have a very dishonest media that went with, "Trump says to guzzle Clorox!"

Later, Trump did say he was just being sarcastic, which I believe was not true, given his quoted comments above. But given the fun the lying media was having with its "Trump said to drink bleach" propaganda and how peripheral future technologies were to a problem that needed immediate solutions, I think he made the right call to end the discussion on this and move on, rather than try to explain himself more clearly.
