Yes, I really don’t understand why he continues to praise the vaccines - surely he knows about everything you mention, plus the way the Drug manufacturers have covered up the data.
It just puts him at odds with his own supporters.
Vanity, of course. Biden propagandists still believe that their election propaganda that Trump killed hundreds of thousands by mishandling COVID was one of the main reasons Biden won. They are still putting it about that the vaccination triumph was Biden’s. Trump, in campaign mode, wants to reclaim the COVID savior medal that Biden was awarded by the media.
As President, Trump wrangled with the media over the big and trivial smears leveled at him. He ushered in his Presidency with a fuss over inauguration attendance numbers, being sensitive to the media’s delegitimizing his electoral college, not popular vote, victory. The fact that he never let an insult go, and responded in kind, was part of his popular appeal as a fighter, and a sticker-to-his-guns. Trump needs his vanity - self-respect, self-assurance, whatever lies this side of the narcissism the left accuses him of - to protect himself from constant, relentless, demeaning calumnies. (I enjoyed his sexism, pointed personally and ungallantly at the crudely feminist and most unfeminine Rosie O’Donnell.)
At some point, when the failures of vaccination are allowed to be disseminated on social and mainstream media, both Trump and Biden will drop their COVID handling from their campaign messaging. But for as long as vaccination stands for civic virtue in the public square, Trump will polish his halo.
He has no political instinct whatsoever. He is entirely unsuited to be a political leader. Having said that, he was infinitely preferable to her!
For GS, is there no young person ready to stand up for the American people (yes; Tulsi Gabbard).
He is an awful person. FGS, retire, go and spend your remaining days wondering what you might have accomplished if you had started at 45 or so.
Hes not an idiot - Biden is an idiot. And the fact that he’s not a politician is points in his favor - I’d much rather have him than some professionally polished phony who is all talk - in other words, a politician.
I’d be a lot more comfortable with that assessment if it weren’t for all the reports of probable jab deaths and lesser harms, plus mysterious deaths of younger people which aren’t even being counted as jab related, we’re not just talking about “failures” of the jabs here. If and when the reality of the injuries becomes clear to a greater number of people his political career may be well and truly over (unfortunately as I don’t see an alternative candidate emerging yet). In short I think he needs to drop this line right now.
I think he should at least take the line of Peter Navarro, who was part of his team at the time, who points out that, although they did push for a vaccine, they were also pushing hydroxychloroquine, etc. Thats at least something.
What elected office had Donald Trump held before the US Presidency?
None; not even part time PTA.
Was Donald Trump a member of the republican party?
No, in fact he preferred running for the democrat nomination but realized that Hilary Clinton had that all sewn up. He has been a major supporter and donor to the democratic party, including to that snake Chuck Schumer. Perfectly understandable when considered in the context of a businessman trying to grease local politicians.
He looked at the lineup of pathetic sad sacks who were seeking the republication nomination and decided, rightly, that among such a group even he would stand out.
He was able to manipulate enough of the electorate with his idiotic “MAGA”, “lock her up”, “build the wall”, chants to secure an Electoral College victory. A lot of frustrated people voted for him, hoping for a change of direction back to sanity, including me. I donated $500.00 to his campaign and another $500.00 to other republican candidates.
So what did we get?
Promises to reform the medical monopolies vanished on the night of the election.
The wall was never built.
Hilary Clinton remains at large.
No effort whatsoever went into nuclear research, although nuclear power is clearly the only viable energy option of the future.
He could not even control his own adminstration; the swamp outsmarted or ignored him at every turn.
He came in with no team so had to depend on a group of swampers, most of whom detested him.
Yes, he presided over a period of economic growth and low unemployment. He achieved that by increasing the Country’s credit card limit and spending to the max.
The plans for stealing the 2020 election were hatched under his nose and quite likely with the full knowledge and co-operation of some of his entourage.
America is circling the drain and a whole swathe of people want to put their faith in a man who will be 78 at the next presidential election.
This country had better wake up, and soon.
And you can add to this, that he co-operated in the active and deliberate suppression of cheap, effective, over the counter, treatments for COVID. Not out of any malicious intent, but through naivete and a complete lack of political understanding.
Even the little that you grudgingly admit that he accomplished was way more than any of the other candidates would have likely accomplished.
You don’t seem to realize what he was up against - a “leviathan” administrative state that would stymie even an experienced politician.
Even JFK, a Democrat, lost his life for threatening to expose the corruption of the CIA.
You are probably right about the potential of the other candidates.
We had better find someone, and soon, there are two great issues facing this nation now:
1st; the demographic collapse into 3rd world status. White people are not forming families, whatever the reasons for this are, they had better be identified and fixed.
2nd; the energy crunch is almost upon us. There is no sign that TPTB recognize this or what to do about it. Pete (Mrs.) Buttegeig is of no help at all with his pushing of backdoor legislation to cripple auto manufacturers.
Its not that they “don’t recognize” these problems - they are CAUSING them - on purpose.
It’s all part of the “Cloward - Piven” plan - overwhelm the economy - with floods of illegal welfare spongers and lack of energy sources - till it collapses. Then rule from atop the pile of rubble that remains as “saviors” ushering in a new Utopia!
Thats the whole plan.
The leftists in politics (such as Obama, Biden, etc), the leftist “intellectuals” writing the script for the latest Marxist “cause” like BLM, Antifa, CRT, transgenderism, Climate Change, Open Borders, etc, etc, etc, and the leftist billionares who fund it all.
