Dr. Anthony Fauci on Sunday praised former President Donald Trump for showing his support of COVID vaccines and booster shots, and told of his shock at the backlash that Trump had received for doing so.(Snip)'And I think that his continuing to say that people should get vaccinated and articulating that to them, in my mind is a good thing,' Fauci said, noting: 'I hope he keeps it up.'(Snip)In the interview with Owens last week, Trump told her that people unvaccinated against coronavirus are the ones getting 'very sick' and encouraged all Americans get the jab all while taking credit for its creation.

Trump has lost me on the support of the poison bio weapon. Hundreds and thousands of people have died from the jab. He’s losing support because he should know by now that it is extremely toxic and dangerous and doesn’t protect you from anything.

Operation Warp Speed is the most brilliant pieces of public-private collaboration outside war time ever.
It enables billions of people to get vaccinated and millions to vocalize their right not be (coupled with big chunks of nonsense).

We have been through this several times in the last few days.
1: the vaccines have killed people
2: Covid has killed more people
3: trump is 100% about freedom to make your own decision and not be punished for it
4: math says people in high risk groups should take vaccine, people not in high risk groups should probably avoid. But people in both high and not-high risk groups should make that decision for themselves.
The rest is noise.
Anyone crying about Trump making mistakes or bad hires or disagreeing with him on one of thousands of things is in for a lifetime of anger and disappointment if the only acceptable leadership walks 100% lockstep with you and never makes a mistake or bad hire.
I stand firmly knowing Trump is far and away the best President we've had since Reagan. Period. No doubt in my mind and shouldn't be in yours, either. The facts are clear.

Trump had absolutely nothing do with the design or manufacturing of these mRNA shots. He was told, as we all were, that these were "vaccines". Vaccines have been a literal life saver against a wide number of diseases for a couple of centuries. IMO, Pres. Trump still sees his efforts to ensure that all meaningless, unnecessary bureaucratic roadblocks were removed from obstructing the 'fastest safe' development of these "vaccines" as a wonderful management success.....and from a management perspective....he is absolutely correct.
However, the people who actually RUN these big pharma companies produced a defective product. Their "vaccines" are NOT vaccines, and they are now known to NOT be effective and not be safe. None of the detailed, medical execution of these failed mRNA shots was caused by anything the President did.
But, he needs to separate his good work in clearing away useless, unnecessary bureaucratic obstacles from the fact that the folks that he cleared the feild for are at least incompetent thieves, at worst, they may have intentionally harmed huge numbers of people. Intent is always extremely difficult to prove.
But, at minimum, these mRNA shots relied on an unproven, risky technology, and have turned out to be extremely short lived in the immunity that they provide, and have dramatically higher levels of adverse reactions, including many tens of thousands of deaths, and hundreds of thousands of injuries.
Intent? I have an opinion on that, hard to prove, at least in the short run.
Hard facts? These shots are NOT "safe and effective".

How quickly some of us forget. Or never paid attention?
At the time the vaccines were being developed, and readied for hurried rollout, we and the world were gripped in a pandemic of unknown magnitude for which there appeared to be no cure. A mystery from the lab of an enemy. We knew people were dying. Lots of people. President Trump, not a scientist, did what he believed to be best for our country.
No one knew what adverse effects might show up. It seemed right at the time to try to do whatever it took to prevent this novel life-threatening disease that appeared to be out of control.
It seems inappropriate for us - with 20-20 hindsight - to try to bolster our own armchair quarterback creds by denigrating him for doing what he sincerely believed at the time to be the right thing.

I don't fault Trump, I fault the medical experts who were advising Trump. They should've focused on therapeutics FIRST and then devoted a parallel effort to develop a vaccine, knowing that one could not be safely rolled out for 3-4 years (even moving fast). The truth is that therapeutics were discovered pretty quickly and Trump was sabotaged by the NIH, FDA and CDC and hundreds of thousands of people needlessly died as a result. Want proof? Just look at what the Feds did, under Biden, in regards to monoclonal antibodies in Florida. They didn't want to save people...they want to control people.

President Trump has no training or understanding of cellular defenses, ribosomes, antibody production, DNA, RNA and etc. He trusts the advisors who came up with this fake vaccine. We can’t fault him for that. Like the portion of the population who, like him, “trust the science”, he will gradually become aware of the fraud foisted upon him, and us. But he is brilliant, and will learn. He should read carefully the RFK Jr. book for a nice introduction. A compliment from Fauci is like a kiss from a Cobra.

I don't fault him for what he did and said last year. I do fault him for saying NOW that you need to take the jab. Much has been discovered, including the fact that no one wants to acknowledge, that the jab is causing continuous infections.

I fault Trump. He listened to, and then let Fauci dictate policy that caused economic devastation, and helped enable massive voter fraud, which is being institutionalized as we speak. Not too mention has gotten us to the point of medical tyranny.
Trump shouldn’t be bragging about enabling the deaths of 10,000’s of our neighbors and friends by letting them rush through a cure that is worse than the disease.

Trump got Big Pharma to develop the vaccines at the behest of advise that he received from his medical science advisors. It was the Democrats who first politicized the pandemic when they at first claimed that they would never take any vaccine developed by Trump. While Trump at the advise of his doctors has received both shots and the booster. Thump never told anyone not to take the vaccines and never imposed any mandates to the effect that anybody or everybody should be required to take the shots. At that time a heck of a lot less was known about COVID that is known today.

I know I’m not supposed to believe my lying eyes but these “ vaccines “ don’t work. Has Trump said anything about therapeutics? How about the fact that the government does not allow access to them? You’d think he would be all over that. More and more each day I realize it’s everyone for themselves. Good luck!

President Trump NEVER insisted Fauci, other bureaucrats, or politicians withhold repurposed drugs from patients. He never threatened doctors or pharmacists with losing their medical licenses for prescribing or distributing "unproven" treatments with repurposed drugs. Trump was was himself successfully treated with Hydroxychloroquine, antibiotics and zinc, so he spoke of treatment options before the vaccines were produced. He was mocked by our illustrious MSM who also helped marginalize doctors with the decency to try to save lives before people got too sick and put on ventilators from which few escaped.
It was not Trump's idea to deny repurposed drugs to dying Americans, while loved ones stood behind glass windows watching them take their final breaths. Interestingly, bureaucrats have now approved at least one "new" covid treatment drug that will cost US taxpayers $500 per patient. The bureaucrats are still learning about the safety profile of new drugs, while continuing to insist drugs like Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin (that have been used for decades around the world) are "too dangerous" to approve for Covid19 patients in the United States.

If Trump had been reelected, he would have initiated an Operation Warp Speed II that would have put covid therapeutic treatments on the fast track, just like he did with the vaccines. Currently, they are blocked by bureaucratic red tape, because the current incompetent, Joe Biteme, decided to concentrate on only the vaccines and could only threaten and insult people while issuing mandates without the constitutional authority to enforce them.

Getting the vaccine is nothing more than playing Russian Roulette. I will take my chances with the weakened virus. I really wish the media would stop talking about the virus as if it is dooms day. It is nothing more than the flu. Let's move on because this is getting crazy.

We have a big problem in America - pride. Many get baked in to a bad choice, and cannot reverse course.
They cannot bring themselves to admit that they were deceived, snookered, bamboozled.
It is ok to change your mind when you have new facts.
It is ok to do a U-turn when you were going the wrong way.
My niece has two friends about 30 years old who clearly had adverse reactions to the vaccine. One had her lungs full of blood clots. Rather than admit the obvious, she thinks it could be related to a fall she had a month ago.
Trump got played by the "medical experts". He needs to admit it and go forward with the facts now known.
If you don't have access to any new information, here is a good place to start.

My local hospital is waiting for me to report and become vaxed with the 3rd *clot shot* but I am in my 70's now and in pretty good health and keeping my mind open. Today is 5 set lift week for me followed by a deload and then back to me individualized *hard gainer* program. Common sense is telling me to stay away from them and I will. My open gym uses CDC protocols and I follow them without getting kicked out of there. They will try to stretch this out beyond Spring but I will monitor.

I still have my 2020 spreadsheets on China virus tests, positives and deaths by demographic. As Pence, Fauci and scarf lady kept fearmongering every evening my charts showed if you were outside a nursing home or not fighting chronic illness the odds were very low. If reopen my software and start loading data again I bet the stats are worse now with the "vaccine".

Trump is right on this. Becoming anti-Vax was one of the dumber things populist right wingers have done. It's just wrong on every level. Wrong on the science and wrong to say that companies and organizations that mandate vaccines are violating our rights. Your kids can't go to school if they don't get a bunch of vaccines, and that's been the law, tested in court, since forever. COVID vacciines are no different.

I wish people would realize that what we are fighting is a spiritual battle. President Trump prayed with Franklin Graham to receive Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior not long ago, so President Trump is not cognizant of the spiritual forces he is fighting. We are sure he has many pastors around him advising him, including his close friend a Christian, Mark Meadows. Don't know if Meadows is aware of the spiritual warfare, but all those around President Trump need spiritual protection, spiritual wisdom of God and God's knowledge and favor to win these overwhelming battles. The devil is out to destroy this nation and is using the Maxist/Communist Administration to do it, including Evil Fauci.

This is all political. Washington wants Trump gone. They have already started a crackdown. No doubt they recognize the need to neutralize his supporters, so they don't vote for him. Would any other Republican have handled things differently? We don't know, but it's doubtful. We are going to be treated to 'Trump's stand on the vaccine' ad nauseum until the next election. Just remember, Washington has already selected a slate of Republicans that would be satisfactory for them just in case the Dems lose. We will also have Republicans lying through their teeth saying how they would never have done what Trump did.

Trump wanted those vaccines developed at warp speed because he was hoping to take away the ridiculous fear so many people have about this CCP engineered virus, and he wanted to get the country opened up, ASAP. Had there not been an election coup, it's clear that Trump would have opened the country and without having to be re-elected and not giving a crap about being impeached yet again, he would have gone very, very strong on getting therapeautics mainstreamed. The idea is to learn to live with the CCP virus and that all can be done with proper management of vaccines, not mandates, and proper use of therapeautics. Trump had no need to keep the country shut down the way the installed, totalitarian biden regime has. Also, I suspect the boos that were heard from the audience, were not for Trump, but for fauci and fjb mandating these vaccines.
Note to the Daily Mail.....Trump supporters are not deserting the greatest President in our life time because he is rightly taking credit for the warp speed vaccine and is encouraging (NOT SIGNING ON TO THESE MANDATES) people to take the vaccine if it's right for them. So Daily Mail, stick it.

I'm not sure why so many are upset with President Trump. My father (92), my mother (88) and I had the COVID. We all were vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine. All three of us had very mild cases of COVID, we felt a bit weak, but the hardest part was the loss of taste.
My brother, who has MS, chose not to have the vaccine. He was the fourth man to have COVID where he works. He was extremely sick, lost 30 lbs., had to be on oxygen and was in the hospital for 3 weeks with COVID pneumonia which turned into bronchitis.
The vaccine did not prevent my father, mother & I from getting COVID, but I am sure that it helped us not to get the COVID effects that my brother did. My father may have come close to dying because of age and he also has COPD. It would have been terrible on my mother too.
So we are very happy to have had the vaccine. Trump is right, get the vaccines (if you choose) in order to keep so many from dying.

Handing ammunition to an enemy is about the stupidest mistake one can make, but vanity and the refusal to admit to honest mistakes (here, being taken in by swindlers such as Fauci and Company) have been the undoing of many men before him. President Trump bungled the novel Coronavirus crisis, according to the Marxists who looked to oust him. And right now the death count is higher under pResident Bidet, the man with the plan, despite availability of the worthless vaccines and much more knowledge about how to handle the disease. And despite all this, the USA's supposed death rate from Coronavirus is higher than any other developed nation, save Poland, but the fault lies with those who refuse the three shots developed by Donald Trump.
