Oh, I totally agree the media and Dems will try ANYTHING to take down Trump, but man o man, to me this is a VERY VERY RISKY move on their part. Leftists still warmly embrace the vaccine, mask and lockdown culture that was really pushed hard by their side. To shift on a dime and say it's all big, bad Trump's fault after he's been out of the decision making role for 2 1/2 years is really going to be tough on these lefties. Tough pill to swallow.

I disagree that they warmly embrace it now by the daily numbers in the United States of people getting vaccinated. Out of 335 million people, you cannot fill one average football stadium up daily of people who are getting Covid shots. This includes a lot of those constituents saying no.

And yes, this is EXTREMELY risky. I’m actually surprised it started this soon. I really think they are massively concerned about the 2022 midterms.

OK, so warmly embrace may be a slight overstatement, but to get them to admit the vaccines have been injurying or much less killing people or have long-term negative consequences is something I have had little luck in trying to change the lefties (and even some on the right's minds). You have to believe that they will understand that Biden, Fauci, Birx, Walensky, CDC, Doctors and especially big pharma are WAY MORE to blame then Trump who basically attempted to get the process fast tracked, while also pushing other alternative therapies. We'll see I guess.

Joe, I hear you, but the can of worms this opens them up to from their own liberal/left leaning audience who have not backed away ONE IOTA from the vaccines is just not going to play. The hypocrisy at this point for them to admit to the unvaxed/purebloods that they vaccines are bad and its Trumps fault is just a bridge too far for them. The media, sure, their audience (90% of them) not a chance.

The media still wants to get ahead of the Covid narrative and they have absolutely zero shame. Their ultimate objective is to do ANYTHING necessary to take down Trump, even if they eat some of their own.

This ploy will attempt to rile up their constituents, who received upwards of four vaccine shots, but still contracted Covid at least once.

The question comes down to how will Trump respond to this.
