Moreover, a comment made by Donald Trump on advising his science advisors to contemplate on the possibility of ‘disinfectant injections’ for humans, received widespread flak. Even Hollywood stars did not mince their words while sharing their displeasure over the comment.

Without referring to the comment, Bryan Cranston also took a dig at the POTUS in a Twitter post  on Saturday. The actor wrote that the President was ‘not sane’ and that he was not worried about the President’s sanity anymore. The veteran added that this ‘realisation’ did not fill him with anger but with ‘profound sadness.’
