He also said therapeutics. He is right. We saved lives with 3 vaccines and therapeutics. You are playing into the Marxist-Democrat playbook if you give it all away. Trump can take credit for the vaccines and tremendous therapeutics. Dems can take the credit for the mess they caused with shutdowns, vaccine passports (dividing people), taking freedoms away, mandates, threats, etc .

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

Jeff Sessions, William Barr, Operation Warp Speed. 2018 we know they’re gonna steal the election but let’s sit around with our thumbs up or asses, etc, etc. Not anti Trump, just looking at SOME of his track record.

the scientist he is trusting..like the little yard gnome..is a evil corrupt psychopath.

You are correct on the little yard gnome, except that Trump has never trusted him. He just realized that it would play out worse for him if he had fired Fraudski. He had many disagreements with him, starting with the ban on people coming to the U.S. from China.

“Just because I don’t agree with trump on the vaccine doesn’t mean I won’t support him. Im still behind him 100%”

He is firmly opposed to mandates, so I don’t see why his pro-vaccine stance is that important. It’s still an individual decision.

I think it was legitimate to be terrified by the initial worst-case scenarios of Covid. At that time we didn’t know yet that it would be a mild cold.

And when you are leader if the free world, it makes sense to act based on worst case scenarios. You can’t f around. Warp Speed was something to be proud of.

Also, he knew the Left was itching to make Covid his “Katrina”.

Finally, he was trying to educate the American people to view China as the enemy - and in order to demonize the CCP for launching a deadly bioweapon - he could not downplay it…

All that being said, I do wish he would stop doubling down on being pro vaccine at this point.

It’s all about the optics.

between 100M-200M voters

worship the “jab” as if their

VERY LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!

Trump is not going to diss those voters

especially since he knows the extent of

the bio attack and exactly what has been

done to mitigate it.

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

One of the reasons I hope he doesn't run again. The left will use his early support, and persistent pushing of the shots and boosters to go after him. 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.

He also ignores that Florida had fewer problems with covid than anyone even though they protected people from all the mandates. I don’t believe that Trump has not seen that data and all the reports about vaccine effects. Many of them from reputable sources. So why would he turn a blind eye to all of that? The only answer I can see is quite disturbing.

Every politician is an idiot in one way or another. This is Trump’s dumb spot. Keep it up, sir, and you will knock yourself right out of 2024.

I voted for Trump the political candidate. Not Trump the physician.

Trump’s going to be as successful in pushing the shots as Fauci and Biden, because everybody who wanted to get them or, sometimes, under duress, has already gotten them.

Consider the source, folks.

The source is Trump.

Nobody wants to hear it, but the vaccines don’t matter. This hyper infectious variant is creating an awful lot of mutation engines. Vaxed and Unvaxed.

1) Oh! But mutations make it less severe! If it killed you sooner, then it cannot survive. So it mutates gentle.

It’s not alive. It’s a virus. They are not organisms. They have no desire to survive. HIV : an RNA virus, has no interest in survival or not survival, and it’s been mutating for what, 50 yrs? It ain’t getting gentler.

2) VAX is nothing more than a way to persuade people there must be VBM for the midterms.

The vax obsession is a manifestation of desperation. There is no other weapon. And the Netherlands doesn’t give a DAMN about US midterm vote by mail.

3) Vax kills more people than is saves.

You have to make that case all over the world. It’s not a US democratic party plot when Russia funded and promotes Sputnik V. They care about their people dying, and they have decided more die without vax than with it. Most countries do, and they don’t care about US politics.

Thank you President Trump for your work in getting the vaccines for the world in such a short time. Now you need to stfu and let the decision to take it or not be ours.

I hope Trump didn’t recommend the vaccine for young people and people with natural immunity. Did he?

The Source is the Marxist Insider which trying to discourage you and cut out the part of where Trump said the vaccines AND therapeutics.

As mewzilla said, consider the source.

Sorry folks, Trump was just as much of “The Plan” as were Obama and Biden.

A useful distraction to keep the people from looking behind the curtain at who is pulling the strings on the puppets.

Flame away all you want, but think about it.

We have been played.

Bigly.

Boosters don’t work so go out and get one! Dang-—why the hell does he keep supporting this disaster? He’s giving them fodder for more mandates....
