That's hard to read.  Can you post it again spelled out?

For My 2121 taxes

Can I have $300 transferred from regular IRA as part of my RMD and sent from IRA to a qualified charity and gain the benefit of the QCD and count the same $300 as the special income tax deduction offered by IRS for this year ?  I would be taking the standard deduction

No.  Amounts treated as a QCD are not permitted to also be claimed separately as a charitable-contribution deduction.
