Frangelico and Bailey is a great combination.  Ocassionally I throw a little Kailua in.
Regarding hydroxychloroquine I have several patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis and Lupus who are in very marginal financial shape who suddenly can’t afford their medicine because unqualified aholes are promoting it for Covid.  These are people who could never afford fancy pants audio systems or expensive cars.  They are just trying to live in less pain and be more functional.  If anyone on this site has been promoting it, please stop.  This is not a debate about a runbber footie improving your $20,000 preamp
Yes, it's a travesty when those who are supremely unqualified recommend a drug based on limited knowledge, to the detriment of those who in fact rely on it.

On a lighter note, yes! Can't go wrong with adding a little Kahlua.
The holy trinity as it were. The mirepoix  of tippling additives.



    I tend to doubt such a large minority group of blue-collar, hardworking individuals, even if they were justifiably angry at being neglected by their government for decades, would be naturally drawn to and select to support an individual who inherited $500 million and filed for bankruptcy within a decade, had never previously displayed any concern for their welfare and was generally considered a prodigious blowhard, liar and conman.  
     I think it's much more likely that this conman and his cohorts identified and targeted this group as ripe for exploitation, manipulation and recruitment as a viable voting base, in other words an easy mark.  They hatched a scheme to pander to this group's existing anger at being neglected by their government, xenophobia, slow wage growth, the exportation of their jobs and the browning of their country along with their in spite of it all patriotism.  
     I think the majority of this group still honestly believes they selected him as their spokesman and advocate, still not realizing it was the master conman and inveterate liar and manipulator that selected them for recruitment.

Tim, you have hit the bullseye dead center (so to speak ;-). I admit I was surprised (and shocked) by how many fell for his obvious con (I think he was too). Had they not heard of his "university", "airline", "steaks", "wine", and other numerous scams? I assumed they would recognize a New York Con Man when they saw one, and would resent being viewed as so gullible.

When they let him get away with saying what he did about an American hero in my eyes---John McCain, I gave up all hope of them ever seeing the light.

Two of the biggest cons to ever grace the Oval Office were the sex addict/rapist from Arkansas and the smooth-talking, beautifully smiling, community organizer from Jakarta.
