Trump Says He Wouldn’t Need COVID Vaccine Mandate: ‘I Would Convince People’
New York Post ^ | October 18, 2021 | Steven Nelson

Former President Donald Trump says he would not mandate COVID-19 vaccines if he were still in office because he’d “sell it” to people to take voluntarily.

President Biden last month announced that most federal workers must get vaccinated or face losing their jobs and that companies with 100 or more employees must require shots or regular testing — drawing pushback from critics who accused him of overreach.

“I wouldn’t say to anybody, ‘You have to.’ But I would sell it. Look, I’m very proud of what we did with the vaccines,” Trump told political news host Bill O’Reilly in an interview that will air at 8 p.m. Monday on The First TV. “It was supposed to take five years and they said it wasn’t going to work. I did three vaccines in less than nine months and they do work, they work really well.”

Shame, shame, shame. I backed this man from the 2016 primaries, but he is killing people here.

Still not getting it. Since I have natural immunity from exposure and recovery from covid, there is no medical reason for me to get it.

Trump would acknowledge natural immunity and would not be a prick about it. He’d get 10 more points of vaccinations and herd immunity is then a reality.

I’ve received the vaccine, but I’m not sure it was the right
thing to do (by a mile), and no other person’s opinion would matter when I made my final decision.

I really think there is a considerable amount of information
out there to reveal the vaccine as a big joke on the world’s
populace.

I’m a Trump supporter but he wouldn’t be able to convince me to get the jab.

Every Liberal now trying to force you to tale these vaccines would be telling everyone how dangerous it is and under no circumstances should you take it. Trump wouldn’t convince me but at the same time this would be such a small part of Trump’s second term I wouldn’t care if he were promoting it. Trump would be knee deep in a trade war with Europe by now.

The point is, Trump would be more persuasive than Biden, whose “I’m losing my patience” attitude is changing no minds.

Sorry but I already convinced myself long ago to NEVER trust the government for anything. Especially my health.

Everyone who wants the vax has already gotten it.

I don’t follow Trump when he goes off the cliff.

Sorry Don, you were the best President in my lifetime, but the worst Human Resources director in the history of mankind.

**************************************************************
I guess you missed the part about NO MANDATES. Trump is a firm believer in NATURAL IMMUNITY and INDIVIDUAL CHOICE. Will those beliefs make him a target now of the antivaxxer jihadists?

Only Jesus Christ himself could convince me to take it.
