He threw MAGA voters under the bus with his comments. This was from Mar 2021, after he no longer had executive powers in relation to public health:
"I would recommend it, and I would recommend it to a lot of people that don't want to get it, and a lot of those people voted for me, frankly," Trump said on Fox News, praising what he called "a great vaccine."
Imagine you were the average older age group Fox news junkie, and MAGA, and fearful of your fragile health but also trying to reconcile conflicting information about the real dangers of the virus and what precautions are safe and effective. Imagine that as you age, you tend to acquiesce to whatever information comes from some kind of authority figure: health care professional, news pundit, politician. And then you hear Trump make those comments about YOU who voted for him. For a lot of folks in that demographic, that's going to very likely remove any reservations about the jab, isn't it?
Sorry folks you'll never convince me he knew what he was doing by pushing the experimental jab to save us from something worse. That does not explain his public comments whatsoever.
Imagine that as you age, you tend to acquiesce to whatever information comes from some kind of authority figure:
Then we, collectively, have failed as a society. This is the result of abandonment of the elderly as soon as they are no longer "functional", not out of good policy or sensible decision making.
And then you hear Trump make those comments about YOU who voted for him.
I elected a president, not a saint. He's allowed to make mistakes. We shouldn't waste time viewing those mistakes through the lens of "whataboutism" particularly when there's plenty of data that reveals that it almost certainly didn't make any sort of difference at all.
And he never let up even as more alarming safety signals emerged about the vaccines throughout 2021.
A Time magazine phone quote is an "alarming safety signal?" I think you're staring at the page too hard. He clearly said, in that same quote, it's up to you and it can't be mandated because that destroys peoples lives. It's a "mixed signal" from a less than serious context, at best.

That sounds like it's your problem, not anyone else's. Convince yourself, or don't. Live with the swamp, or learn to compromise your way out of it. The only place your quest for perfection will take you is exactly where you already are.
I think you're missing the context of my sentiments. There has been incessant posts and articles here trying to prove that Trump's pushing of the experimental jabs was not because of ignorance or that he wasn't perfect, he knew exactly what he was doing because its part of the of a white hat plan to kneecap the globalist plan to lockdown the world for 10 years or some bizarre scenario like that. THAT's what I'm arguing against, not that I really believe Trump must be perfect. Evidence shows he was outsmarted by big pharma, which means he is susceptible to failure at very high and critical levels. So, its something to consider when so many are assuming Trump is going back into office in 2024 and he's our only hope, etc.
Honestly, it would not have been very difficult to have promoted public health policies based at least on traditional vaccines with KNOWN risks and benefits, rather than complete unknowns trying to address a widespread non consequential highly transmissable pathogen. But when a president is only going on daily briefings with single page summaries of the facts of any given matter, it actually is difficult to get it right because he is completely susceptible to advisers and "expertise". So how does this fit into some 5D chess, really?
He could have allowed pharmaceutical companies to develop a vaccine without paving the way for this experimental rna shit. This should be banned research imho
This is why PDJT could not stop the jab, they mobilized all of their assets against whatever he said.
Agreed, however he didn't help the cause when he said: "People aren’t dying when they take the vaccine."
And also: "But I recommend take the vaccines. I did it. It's good. Take the vaccines."
I'll never get my head around these comments of his.
