No, it objectively isn't. The context of Trump's comments was a presentation by Bill Bryan from the Department of Homeland security on how to fight COVID-19, in which he explicitly discussed that

a) The virus dies quickest in the presence of direct sunlight. and b) Readily available household disinfectants are effective at killing the virus. He specifically mentions that bleach and isopropyl alcohol had been tested.

This is the immediate context in which Trump's comments about putting light inside the body and injecting disinfectant were made. There is absolutely no doubt what he meant here. Stop trying to gaslight people.

All of this is on video:

You're the one gaslighting people, poorly. It is illustrative that you choose to ignore what Trump said immediately prior to the "inject disinfectant into the body" phrase (which, BTW, is what Atyu does - they have a video on YT).

Direct quote: "Suppose we hit the body with ultraviolet light, and you said, that hasn't been checked, but we're gonna test it, and I said suppose you can bring the light inside the body, which you can do, either through the skin or in some other way, and I think you said you're gonna test that, too". Then he proceeds to talk about "disinfectant, which knocks it out in a minute". Crucially, at no point has Trump ever suggested anything like "injecting bleach", yet thanks to CNN and gullible people like you half the country believes he did.

I think realistically what happened is, Trump was bombarded with suggestions in his daily briefing, as usual, and used a poor choice of words to describe one of the suggestions. Contemporaneous evidence supports this: Atyu announced their work with Cedars Sinai a day or two before that press conference.

But feel free to believe the CNN version. By the way, I have some excellent build-ready swampland in Florida I'd like to sell. Interested?

Really? His direct quote is:

"I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning? Because you see it gets in the lungs, and it does a tremendous number on the lungs. So it would be interesting to check that."

He literally asked about injecting disinfectant into the body, referencing and immediately following a briefing that talks about using household disinfectants like bleach and isopropyl alcohol against SARS-Cov-2. You're either being purposefully disingenuous, or completely failing at listening comprehension. Either way, you're clearly not changing your mind here. But maybe I can inform other people that may end up reading your nonsense.
