I’m a little conflicted about this. I’m 100% opposed to vaccines for the coof because I know it’ll be just as effective if not less so than the flu vaccine. It’s a control mechanism.

However, Trump is trying to do right by the American people, especially the normies who think a vaccine is necessary for the 99.998% safe pandemic to end.

These are all optics though. Trump can’t be seen to show he is working towards an end to the coof. That is why big pharmaceutical didn’t realease the good news before the election.

I get it but feel like we are constantly fighting that giant tidal wave of disinformation out there.

They were part of that operation Warp Speed, and were able to work quickly because Trump was cutting red tape. But they're having a hissy fit because he's not allowing them to overcharge Americans for drugs anymore, so they deliberately withheld this vaccine info until after the election.

There is a not-insignificant number of people still very frightened by the flu panic who believe the news about Trump "doing nothing," so this news would have been reassuring and pumped up his numbers even more. They deliberately influenced the election.
