Former President Donald Trump urged his supporters on Sunday to get a booster shot of the COVID-19 vaccine to protect themselves against the Omicron variant, telling them they're "playing right into their hands" by doubting the vaccines.

...

"Look, we did something that was historic," he said. "We saved tens of millions of lives worldwide. We, together, all of us, not me."

...

"I think this would have been the Spanish Flu of 1917, where up to 100 million people died," he said. "This was going to ravage the country far beyond what it is right now."

Trump also said he got the booster.

Trump has a blind spot in this area. He needs to read the data!

[CatOwner]

This would be one of the rare times I would like to tell Trump to go pound sand.

[TornadoAlley3]

Trump said it would disappear

[Rocko Jack]

First time I’ve seen Trump miss the point

[Lion Den Dan]

This is the only instance wherein I disagree with the President.

..telling them they're "playing right into their hands" by doubting the vaccines.

I don't see how. Can another Trump supporter explain that logic?

[JonPreston]

Plain has the issue about right

[flamberge]

I don't care if President Trump endorses the Jab.

Still not buying into it.

Nothing that is pushed with so much coercive effort can be good for people.

"Look, we did something that was historic," he said. "We saved tens of millions of lives worldwide. We, together, all of us, not me."

So Trump is one of the only people left in the U.S. who actually still believes those jackasses Fauci, Birx, etc. knew what the hell they were talking about when they said 900 million Americans would die of COVID.

Consider the source, folks.

Deep State is trying to peel away Trump’s supporters.

Use yer noggins.

[Chauncey Gardiner]

Japan has the best policy. Trump should heed.

[Alberta's Child]

Trump’s biggest weakness — aside from his ego — is that he’s been a notorious “germaphobe” for years.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

And you by lauding it.

Everyone has their opinion and you are free to have yours as long as you do not push it on me.

Omicron is a freakin' common cold.

The S African doctor who discovered it says: I've seen nothing in this variant that warrants Britain's extreme response to it: Dr ANGELIQUE COETZEE, the doctor who alerted the world to the Omicron Covid variant, says we are over-reacting to the threat

No one here in South Africa is known to have been hospitalised with the Omicron variant, nor is anyone here believed to have fallen seriously ill with it.

Sure hope DeSantis runs because Trump's vax talk is really turning me off.

[mewzilla]

I bet Trump doesn’t believe everything he reads.

[enumerated]

I wish he wouldn’t hang around with that pompous ass O’Reilly.

[Antoninus]

Dear Donald -- The vax don't work. The sooner you understand that, the better off we'll all be.

Part of me is still expecting the Left to start calling the jab, "Trump's Vax".

>>> Can another Trump supporter explain that logic?

I’m sure the Q Anons might have a good one.

Sounds like Trump is floating some type of “conspiracy theory” here...

Doesn’t make any sense whatsoever.

Not drinking the koolaid is playing into their hands???
