Trump tells supporters 'you're playing right into their hands' by doubting the COVID-19 vaccine
Business Insider ^ | 12/20/2021 | Bryan Metzger and Jake Lahut

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."

Only NOW there is tarnish on you MAGA hat?

No tarnish whatsoever. MAGA is still going strong.

The evidence is proof of that from his "History Tour" in Houston on Saturday Dec. 18, 2021:

WATCH: Trump just got a hero’s welcome in Houston!

The way I see it is that it’s foolish for the left to demand these vaccines be consumed by the left. They are losing their base by killing them.

The whole makes no sense whatsoever until you look at the money of it.

Even the lawmakers got their stocks bought before declaring everyone had to get the shot. They are getting rich.

I’m doing business with a billionaire now who you have all heard of. And to do that I have to work his staff to make sure everything is good for the presentation. They tell me “You can’t go into this just by saying you’re saving lives with your product. You have to show dollars saved by saving lives.”

The wealthy elite don’t care about lives. They don’t think they are human. They think they are gods. It’s highly doubtful that any of them even have a vaccine. If they do, it’s different than ours. This isn’t unprecedented.

Trump has done great things for our country, and he is part of our solution. If he doesn’t come back we still have a few great candidates - more than the left do. The left has NO ONE that can further their agenda. We at least have a few. Even Cruz is becoming quite the lion.

We must all remember a few things about Trump - and remember that even Reagan made mistakes.

Trump is a new yorker.

Trump used to be a democrat until it personally affected his empire and family. He is afraid for the future of his kids and grandkids and it shows. Everything he does is for the future of his kids (Which is admirable)

Trump is pro all amendments because he understands the impact of each. He is not pro-gun. He owns guns but all wealthy people have guns - even while saying that others should not.

I’ve met the man. If only for a minute. He’s an a-hole. But he must be an a-hole to survive. Everyone is out to get him and the best thing he can do is scare the hell out of everyone so they don’t even try to ruin him. He gives and gives and gives monetarily and he is very generous but he’s a real stinker to talk to. This is common in the northeast US. (Asa Hutchinson is actually quite nice. But I know he’ll run over me if I’m in a crosswalk and he won’t even lose his appetite)

In our world only a handful of people - and I mean about 5 - have personally demonstrated true bravery and risked their lives to pursue what was right. Donald Trump is one of those people. But don’t think for a moment he shares anything in common - personally - with any of his constituents.

I’ve been pro-trump since the first debates. Still am. I will not be confused by his policy that he and I are alike.

I don’t trust the vaccine. I don’t trust the vaccine that he went through great trouble to get finished. We don’t have to agree on everything here.

This still doesn’t p*ss me of as much as watching Diane Feinstein clapping her hands like a retard when Trump announced action against bump stocks. That scared me.

trump’s taking our rejection of the vax personal and thinks it undermines HIS success.

That's a very good point to consider.

Trump can pound sand on this one.

Nope Donald.

Here is the problem.

You got suckered and they got you backed into a corner you had no idea how to get out of. It was dammed if you did and dammed if you didnt.

Your out was to fire those responsible and you made the excuse that if you did, the left would have gone bonkers.

Well, they went bonkers anyway.

The media will do whatever they need to do, to destroy him, even doing a 180 degree turn on their opinion of the shots. They already did a 180 degree turn on them once Biden was ensconced in The White House. Prior to that, the shots were poo-pooed because Trump promoted them.

Exactly this. They will even throw their beloved Fauci to the wolves when the time comes, blaming Trump for trusting him and giving Biden a pass for dementia. The horrific side effects will then be acknowledged, with heartbreaking stories in all media, and you can bet Trump will be blamed somehow for the censoring.

And if anyone doesn't think that would happen, remind yourself of all of the nonsensical stuff that has been shoveled as truth in the past year, like flimsy cloth masks block out microscopic viruses.

Your article is selectively edited. He said the vaccines AND tremendous therapeutics.

I didn’t ask about mandates. I know he’s against them.

He became invested in the outcome. This vaccine was developed and released under his leadership. To admit it was a mistake would erase what he considers one of his biggest accomplishments. I got the first two shots and regretted. What was sold as a vaccine is now commonly known as gene therapy. Fraudulently promoted and now forced upon the American public.

Exact quote from the article:

“You’re playing right into their hands when you sort of, like, ‘oh, the vaccine,’” he said, referring to those of his supporters who have expressed hesitancy or opposition to the vaccine. “If you don’t want to take it, you shouldn’t be forced to take it. No mandates. But take credit, because we saved tens of millions of lives.”

My wife has said much the same thing. She’s said, and I paraphrase:

“They want you to resist so they can take your job away, ostracize you and put you in camps” and follows up with “We can’t let them do that.”

My counter argument is painful and scares me:

“In order to depose these people they MUST take away freedoms. IF they don’t take away freedoms they will not spark the revolution or civil war. We will continue to be comfy and soft - We NEED to be beaten right now. We NEED to lose to become stronger.”

About 99% of people I talk to feel the way she does. They don’t like the idea of losing. We want grocery delivery. We want the latest smart phone. We want facebook. We want online buys and nice cars and suspension upgrades and netflix and youtube. Everyone just wants those things to be nicer and more patriotic.

Well, I’m sorry to tell you that it’s not going to get better. Nothing about the internet will change. The media will not “snap out of it” Youtube will not apologize for removing patriotic content and fix themselves. Car manufacturers will continue to do things you don’t want and the phones will be used as weapons to track and hamper patriots. They will not change.

IT will not get better. Just divorce yourselves from it and look forward to moving onto another thing.

Trump thinks things will get better if we just keep demanding it to get better. He’s like 99% of even FR. He doesn’t understand that they have taken his gracious attempts to remove government rules to make them more effective. They only took this as a way to seize power.

Trump’s ego on having shoved these so-called, “vaccines” out to the public in record time, is keeping him from objectively looking at how deadly these gene mutations really are.

It would also make him culpable for the lives these jabs have destroyed, and that’s another reason he’s not owning up to their destructive side effects.
