Because of the way that your side spun what he actually said.
Do you see a meaningful difference, between asking if something could ever be possible. and suggesting that people do it today?
It would have been better had Trump asked that in private. Not that there's anything inherently wrong with asking if something is possible, but he should have known how dishonestly your side would spin it.
And if asking if light or disinfectants could ever be a help here is so stupid to ask, why are scientists doing trials to see if disinfectants (chlorine in this case) and UV light can help? Scientists are currently exploring the same avenues that he asked about.

Our “side” heard the question on national TV and reasonable people understand that it should have never been asked, Trump meandering medical questions belong in private. Spin isn’t why the scared, or mentality ill or people just overwhelmed might drink that crap. The spin and the reporting on our “side” suggest at every turn how wrong and how dangerous that would be. The warnings were issued because they realized it was stupid and it might result in serious injury or death if followed. I get that you guys want to defend him even if he shoots someone on 5th ave, but wrong and stupid are just wrong and stupid.
To make it clear to all what a smuck he is, he claimed he was being sarcastic. So let’s for a second consider that might be true, which we all know is false, the president in a national crisis with Americans dying and suffering for months, feels sarcasm is appropriate. That walk back attempt is Trump being the low life he is.
