Original Note:
Trump never mentioned bleach, so the claim by Biden is factual false. Trump did mention injecting a disinfectant, but in the context of previous remarks, this probably meant disinfecting UV light -- but it's not completely clear. https://www.rev.com/blog/transcripts/donald-trump-coronavirus-press-conference-transcript-april-23 https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/jul/11/joe-biden/no-trump-didnt-tell-americans-infected-coronavirus/ https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2020/04/fact-check-trump-did-not-urge-people-to-inject-disinfectants-to-thwart-coronavirus.html
