Trump: My Nov. Timeline For COVID Vaccine Isn’t About Reelection But It ‘Wouldn’t Hurt’

No, President Donald Trump isn’t trying to get a COVID-19 vaccine approved “right around” Election Day to rescue his chances of surviving his race against Democratic challenger Joe Biden, who’s been steamrolling him in the polls. Why do you ask?

“It wouldn’t hurt. It wouldn’t hurt,” Trump replied.

Vaccine in haste and not clinically tried well
Hurts a lot of people…
You “it is what it is” Moron!

Sly and cunning are obsolete now. Just state plainly that, given the chance, you’re going to loot, rape and pillage the country in ways that would make Genghis Kahn and the Golden Horde blush.

As I understand, people can die or be disabled by the disease, or be poisoned by the cure, as long as Donnie gets reelected.
It is what it is.

I’m guessing a “warped speed” Trumpovaccine would hurt and not help…

The guy who only asked Ukraine to say it was investigating Biden will of course say he has delivered a vaccine right before election day. Count on it. It won’t be remotely true, but he will make that announcement.

I’m not taking any vaccine until it is approved by Biden’s FDA.

Wonderful news for Joe Biden when he wins the election.

That he calls it “his” timeline misses the entire point of how this is supposed to work.

since when do you need a vaccine for a Democratic hoax?

And why do you need a vaccine for a hoax that will just go away on its own?

something is not adding up here

now hold my beer, 'cause I got a pizza parlor basement to liberate

I have had occasion to analyze suing a vaccine maker for injuries caused by a vaccine. Suffice it to say, the way the law is written, you can’t. Vaccine makers are essentially granted immunity. And the Supreme Court has interpreted the law in such a way as to remove ANY incentive to make a safer vaccine, even if it can be proved one is feasible. This is a recipe for disaster.

Like mordant_k, I won’t be getting this vaccine until it is approved by Biden’s FDA.

Great timing, Donald! What’s another 100,000 dead when you can throw that Al Bundy Hail Mary election day vaccine pass?
Unfortunately for him about 80% of the ballots will have already been mailed weeks before.

So what’s his plan for actually getting people vaccinated? His base is now a bunch of Qanon vax truthers who think Bill Gates is out to put chips in their heads or something.

It’s a cocktail of bleach and hydroxychloroquine. The last vaccine you’ll ever need.

STAR TREK (Old-Timer’s Version):

The Enterprise is being immobilized by a force field, incapable of forward movement…

Kirk: “What’s up, Mr. Spock?”

Spock: “There is a force field…rendering the Enterprise incapable of forward movement.”

Kirk: “Why…THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE!!

Spock: “We are being held.”

Only Trump is capable of altering the past, present and future…

Jared’s business plan…

So he underestimated the importance, severity, and spread of the virus, then he declared the principal means of protecting against them (masks and testing) as political attacks against him, and ever since then he has minimized the virus spread, its severity, and its mortality. And now he’s attempting to use the premature promise of a vaccine as a tool to get himself re-elected.

So much evil, so little conscience.
