No stupid questions?

At yesterday's (4/23/20) coronavirus briefing, after it was announced that disinfectants kill the coronavirus quickly, President Trump asked if they (disinfectants) could be injected into sick people to cure them.
For years I've been hearing the politically correct BS stating "There are no stupid questions". Does this finally prove that, indeed, there are stupid questions?

Not a bit. Asking questions, even one some people consider to be ‘stupid’, often leads to innovative solutions. Asking if the blood can be ‘disinfected’ or ‘cleansed’ may get some astute physician to look at hemodialysis or plasmaphersis as a potential method to attack the virus.
Part of being a good leader is to ask questions that require ‘out of the box’ thinking. Many discoveries have been made that way.

Sorry, AV, but asking if people can be injected with disinfectant is just plain stupid. President Trump asked a stupid question. Does that mean he's stupid? Of course not. Smart people do stupid things sometimes. The difference between a smart person and a stupid person isn't that smart ones don't make mistakes, it's that smart ones learn and don't keep repeating the same mistakes.
Bill Gates is a smart person, but remember he famously asked, "Why would anybody ever need more than 640K of memory?"
