If Trump touted it, the effectiveness would drop and he’d be accused of preaching false hope.

Don't be such a martyr on his behalf.  If Trump promoted a proven treatment that had the backing of the majority of medical science, I don't think anyone would offended...maybe not even if Trump decided to purchase massive equities holdings in such companies the day before his announcement...

Anyway, most of us are starved for common sense and normalcy, so if Trump wants to start acting like a real president, I don't think anyone's going to protest.  In fact a lot of people would probably be stunned into silence.
