No, repeating something over and over and over and over again is very effective. We do it to kids (the broken record), we do it in commercials, safety videos, airline safety, fire drills, politics, etc. Trump, for all of his nonsense, has actually mastered this. The vast majority of Trump’s jibber-jabber is presented without facts or evidence, but people believe it because he repeats it over and over and over again.

Bingo!

It also gets him a sound bite on the 6 o'clock and 11 o'clock news on the broadcast channels. A lot of people still watch those shows.

Hah! You're a nag! It sometimes work on men when wives keep nagging. But you run the risk of people tuning out and stop taking you seriously.

Same thing with Fauci. Covid, Covid, Covid. I get sick of hearing it.

Of course one has to wonder why Biden is mandating everyone gets the shot while illegal aliens, up to 30% of them are allowed to refuse and they along with the covid positive ones are being spread around the country?





The Biden admin has been such a failure with the economy, inflation, the border crisis, rising crime rates and so much more. They are all losing talking points they would rather cover up and forget but they see that they can have a win with the vaccines so they are pushing them.
His whole platform is based on hypocricy especially drumming it into us to get vaccinated but he allows all these non-vaccinated Covid infected migrants into our country.

All Trump’s speeches were the same too.
My victory was yuuuge
My brain is yuuuge
The media is the enemy of the people
Then he’d just riff on those themes for an hour and call it a day.
It’s a relief that the US president isn’t just giving speeches about himself and going after those he dislikes.

I've read that vaccination rates have been going up, even in southern states, so there is that.
