Which says:

Mr. Trump himself has a small personal financial interest in Sanofi, the French drugmaker that makes Plaquenil, the brand-name version of hydroxychloroquine.

He holds a bit of Sanofi in a mutual fund. So do some other folk. Maybe I do too? I have no idea.

I despise Trump. He's a dim-witted incompetent megalomaniac. I wouldn't be surprised if his interest in hydroxychloroquine was revealed to be financial. But this isn't it. Printing garbage like this weakens the nation.

Media is huge part of the problem.

Actually, Hydroxychloroquine is available as a generic, Sanofi isn't the only maker. Novartis makes it too, among six others. This is not going to make Trump "rich rich rich, mwoohahaha". I was a better journalist than Justin Baragona in 10 minutes.

So dumb.
