There’s nothing shameful about what he said.

The point he’s making here has nothing at all to do with vaccinations. It has to do with liberty vs. coercion.

A good leader knows that if you want a certain political outcome, you try to change hearts and minds, you don’t use force.

I won’t take these vaccinations because I’m not at all afraid of getting covid19. In fact, I wish I’d get it for the immunity. Maybe I’ve already had it - maybe I haven’t, and I already have immunity from other coronaviruses (the common cold).

But when Trump launched operation warp speed a year-and-a-half ago, the risks from Covid19 were completely unknown - it was wise to act based on worst case scenarios.

At this point, I don’t agree at all with Trump about the vaccinations being a good idea - but I think he is making a larger point here - about freedom vs. coercion - and he’s spot on.

And politically it’s a very smart position, because the Left can’t lay the blame on him for vaccine “hesitancy”, and the Right will appreciate being left in freedom.

That “Trumpcines” are deadly and until he repents and warns everyone against him he is complicit with the ongoing killings.

Sorry.
