Look, I know you want to nuance your way out of this, but it's not gonna fly because remarks like the above are taken at face value by foolish people and that's something that public figures have a responsibility to take into account. As I keep pointing out, that's why pharma ads have to have so many warnings in them. You think they wouldn't rather just say 'try this, it'll cure what ails ya!'

* Instructed the FDA to perform a clinical trial
* Said the FDA has approved it for treatment of Coronavirus in “compassionate use” circumstances

* Said he can’t be sure how it will turn out
All of his quotes on the topic can be put into one of those categories. The first two are simply statements of fact, the second two are statements of opinion (and presented as such), opinions that are shared by many doctors and medical officials (including the ones who initially suggested and popularized this idea).
Trump has made absolutely no statements at all saying:
* This will certainly work out
* It’s a good idea to self medicate
So, if there’s so many quotes proving you to be correct, I’m sure you could provide one. Instead of just making an unfounded and unsubstantiated claim that you’re correct.
