The corollary to this is: Had Trump won re-election, he would have told everyone to get the "Trump vaccine" because he would not have wanted Covid to tarnish his second term. And his supporters would have gotten the vaccine.
Patterico, everyone is now trying to use this pandemic for political advantage. It was that way in the days of the 1918 influenza pandemic. I'm not resorting to whataboutism, but there is so much blame and nonsense going on with this pandemic. It reminds me of the politics in the early days of the AIDS epidemic. I just want to minimize death and suffering. But I see so many pundits and commenters everywhere just using information selectively, to support their causes. Ugh. Such an ugly time in history. Best wishes to you and your family; please stay well and safe.
We know Trump will risk lives to benefit himself. He did it when he withdrew medical insurance coverage for his nephew's sick son during a Will dispute.
I agree. Trump knows he has loyal supporters yet instead of caring about them, he is fine with letting them die as long as it helps him. That is depraved.
