Democrat Gov. Phil Murphy Admits Americans Are ‘Sick of Masks’ and Vaccine Mandates
Breitbart ^ | 12/15/2021 | WENDELL HUSEBØ

Posted on 12/15/2021 8:22:49 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy (D) said Wednesday that Americans are tired of overbearing coronavirus restrictions.

The governor told Politico the harsh coronavirus mandates and restrictions are frustrating Americans.

Asked about the reasons for his election scare in November, where he won by only three percentage points in the dark blue state of New Jersey, he said, “A lot of folks who are frustrated, is my guess… They’re sick of masks, being told what to do in terms of vaccines, probably not thrilled with what they sense is going on in Washington, they may have lost a job or a business that went bust — or a loved one, worse yet.”

Yeah, some are, some aren’t. Particularly those that live in NY, and CA. They view masks as a gift, something sacred. The jab?! It’s a rite, a progressive rite.

It’s government incompetence that Americans are sick of.

Murphy, who was among the greatest proponents of tyrannical shutdowns and mask mandates before the election, seems to have changed his mind and become more open to individuals exercising personal responsibility regarding pandemic precautions.

New Hampshireites and Iowans, Get your pre-orders in for the "Murphy 2024!" signs coming soon!

Murphy is no prize but my governor, Greasy Gavin, makes him look like a prince.

I think a major switch in the narrative is coming soon. IIRC, this is at least the second or third Democrat Governor that’s spoken out against mandates, and multiple major Left-wing media sources (NBC, NYT and The Atlantic) are starting to say things like “we need to treat this as endemic, like the flu.”

Chance are they’re preparing for one of two things (or both, possibly): to claim the Democrats have saved us from Covid right before the mid-terms, but the second may be bad news starting to come out in studies regarding either the vaccines, Covid or both.

This morning I walked into the waiting area of my doctor’s office. As I walked to the window to check in, the receptionist behind the window lowered her mask, wiped her nose with her hand, put the mask back up, and handed me papers to fill out.

Their mission of the year has been accomplished.

It was a beta test.

They have proven that a massive propaganda and duress campaign can convince the majority of Americans to take a dangerous drug.

Now that they know it can be done, they can take their time before their next move—the herd is just sitting there waiting to be slaughtered.

They’re sick of masks, being told what to do in terms of vaccines…

Yeah, we’re just not doing much of that in Texas. If you want to get vaccinated or wear a mask, you can. But, we don’t have to.

And there are a few companies saying you have to be vaccinated to work there but that number is dwindling as more companies back off of that.

Colorado and Michigan tyrants are doing the same. Democrats overreached and may try to have it both ways.

Phil Murphy was, is, and always will be a lying, tyrannical, rat-faced weasel. Even among our long list of reprehensible governors, Rat-face Murphy stands out.

Yep. And Fauci actually said the other day that the vaccines could actually do more harm than good. I know he flip-flops like crazy, but I really don’t think he’d say something like that unless he already knows the truth about the vaxx.

I think the Left-wing media has gotten their marching orders from the White House and Democrats.

Explanation here...

The Atlantic Publishes a Piece Stating that Covid Is Over, and Its Readers React Insanely

Also, the fact that neither the masks nor the vax actually work is starting to dawn on even the most locked-in of these political hacks.
