Warp speed rushed the vax out to a public that demanded one and allowed this country to open back up. They could not be mandated at the time and were approved for emergency use. The plan was, imo, to lock down this country and keep it locked down while they "developed" a vaccine. After a good 2 years and this countries economy in complete shambles...as in people losing jobs and homes(on a huge scale) and going hungry they release the vax. Then they will help you. Maybe with government checks and housing BUT...you have to take the vax. So now instead of only maybe half of the country taking the vax you have a much higher percentage taking the vax. Trump certainly can't just do a full 180 yet and tell us this vax is bad....though that is coming. To do so would open him up to attack by the deep state and possibly giving them an opportunity to put all of the blame of this vaccine dead on his shoulders. Now, after the new Biden mandates they cant do that....and it makes sense why Trump ignored the vax issue last night. A lot of this is speculation. It is what I think is going on.
