I thought I knew, but now I'm not sure.

But you support trumpery. Why do you find the word so offensive?

Why do you have to be so childish, and can't seem to have a conversation without pejorative....?

 

[berg80]

Which is EXACTLY what the families of cult members say.

Gee, what a coincidence.

Until the era of trumpery, I thought I knew how people would react to the discovery of a vaccine that greatly decreases the chances you could die from a highly infectious virus. The vaccine also having the ability to minimize the most severe of the virus's symptoms. But I was wrong about that.

I would have said with confidence even trumples didn't want to roll the dice on a re-emergence of polio.

Like Mr. Kennedy, Mr. Siri insists he does not want to take vaccines away from anyone who wants them. “You want to get the vaccine — it’s America, a free country.” he told Arizona legislators last year after laying out his concerns about the vaccines for polio and other illnesses. He did not mention the petitions he has lodged on behalf of ICAN with the Food and Drug Administration, asking regulators to withdraw or suspend approval of vaccines not only for polio, but also for hepatitis B.

Mr. Siri is also representing ICAN in petitioning the F.D.A. to “pause distribution” of 13 other vaccines, including combination products that cover tetanus, diphtheria, polio and hepatitis A, until their makers disclose details about aluminum, an ingredient researchers have associated with a small increase in asthma cases.

Kennedy’s Lawyer Has Asked the F.D.A. to Revoke Approval of the Polio Vaccine

Aaron Siri, who specializes in vaccine lawsuits, has been at Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s side reviewing candidates for top jobs at the Department of Health and Human Services.

Now I'm not so sure. After all, trumples are all in on the guy nominated to lead HHS who said he doesn't believe any vaccine is safe and effective. Like the man who RFK wants to be lead counsel for HHS, Bob says he doesn't want to take vaccines away from people. But much of his life's work says otherwise. In light of the continued support for the orange enemy of the state after revelations of his plot to steal the 2020 election, I don't think I know what trumples will do next. I'm not sure I want to.

I thought I knew whether trumples liked the idea of having their bank deposits insured up to $250K. Especially given the insurance is paid for by the banks who make money from said deposits. But the idea of ending FDIC insurance is being floated by the guy who has won trumples' hearts. A truly "it ain't broke don't fix it" moment. I get the impression if Dear Leader is for it, trumples are too. Though I'm not sure they know why. I do know why the banks are for it.

Deregulation is upon us and folks on Wall St. are excited about the prospects. Just as they were before the Great Depression, the S&L crisis, and Shrub's Great Recession. Jeff Bezos is so excited he contributed $1M to trump's inauguration. Or maybe that was a payoff to keep the incoming trump admin from going after him and his businesses. As was the $1M contribution made by Mark Zuckerberg. I don't know.

Should we abandon the fight against climate change, "suspend approval for vaccines," abolish the FBI, withdraw from alliances, criminalize dissent, forsake allies, purify the populace, initiate trade wars, trivialize ethics, enrich the rich, give tacit approval to governmental intimidation, elevate the executive branch, and seek to marginalize half the population? Do these things strengthen the nation?

I don't think they do. I would not have thought other Americans did either. But I was wrong about that.

The Covid vax is an obvious fraud. You thinking it effective merely proves you’re a dupe of the establishment. You probably watch lots of cable tv news.

Besides, Trump supports the phony vax just as you do. You and Trump are one.

 

[DonGlock26]

It can't prevent infection. I get boosters to lessen the symptoms. You do understand the mortality rate has been greatly reduced thanks to the vaccine, right?

Have you ever heard of a vaccine that can't prevent infection??? Is it really a vaccine?

Source?

How many boosters have you had?

 

[berg80]

Why do you have to be so childish, and can't seem to have a conversation without pejorative....?

You need to develop a thicker skin. In your mind, what's the difference between saying the era of trump and the era of trumpery?

How about we call it "placebo"

 

[Thinker101]

My wife and I had delayed our trip to Italy until after the vaccine was available. After being around others was safer. Rome, Florence, Venice, were all very crowded. As were the airports. I'm not surprised I got COVID. But I wouldn't have gone without getting a vaccine.

The excuses just roll off the tongue.

Tribal politics began in earnest after the end of the Fairness Act and the advent of conservative media in the form of right wing talk radio, then Faux, then the explosion on the scene of the internet. "People like me" aren't the ones sustaining it. The media is.

Well, because that would be scientifically inaccurate.

Well, let's see here....You're denouncing the advent of one broadcaster, Rush Limbaugh, on talk radio, as the problem, while Democrats pretty much own and use ALL other MSM. So, what you're really saying is that ANY dissent from your own preferred method of news dissemination, and opinion is a threat to you....

Good GAWD, do you even read what you post for Christ sake?

 

[DonGlock26]

Science!!!!!

Trust the science unless we are talking about what a woman is.

A "vaccine" you say...I stopped reading your fake science right there.
