1. Trump got the vaccine out there in the first place.
2. The Democratic Party was against anything that Trump unveiled.
3. The Trump vaccines work great.
4. Trump got the vaccine early.
5. Trump stated everyone should get it.
Please change your feed. Fox is a better source of reality.
Even CNN is a better source of reality. I've posted a link several times that shows exactly which groups and percentages of them are getting vaccinated, and it shows a different story than what the ignorant bleat. Instead they'd rather blame anyone that voted differently than them. Just another example of how hate filled they are.
I think you need to dive a bit deeper than just the state level. Here in blue Michigan, the majority of rural areas (Trump country) have the highest percentages of vaccinated, while Detroit has the lowest of the entire state, with something like 39% ....not a lot of Trump support in Detroit the last time I looked.
"This is fact states like
Texas
Florida
Missouri
Arkansas
Alabama
Louisiana
Arizona"
Note the states that have so many ILLEGALS who ARE carrying the virus.
If biden was to close the border like Trump did, these states would NOT have such high numbers.
Abbott encourages people to get the vaccine. He just won’t allow mask mandates and government forcing businesses to close. He also won’t force people to get the vaccine because it’s a free country. It seems simple to me. Get the vaccine if you want and if others don’t want to that’s on them.
As for illegals being allowed to come here and being allowed to travel anywhere they want without quarantine after a positive test, that’s utter bs and you know it. You or I would get in trouble if we did that but these people get a free pass? American citizens have rights and should not be demonized or forced to take experimental vaccines because illegal aliens are being allowed to do what our citizens aren’t allowed to do.
"As for illegals being allowed to come here and being allowed to travel anywhere they want without quarantine after a positive test,"
Hell, biden is SHIPPING them all over trh country!
But even here, it only represents .024606509609365% of the total population.
Even (disgraced) Governor Cuomo admitted back in 2020 that people in NYC were far more likely to contract the virus indoors, than out. And most of those were from elderly COVID-positive patients that he forced into Nursing Homes, and subsequently spread the virus like wildfire to the most vulnerable population possible.
So locking things down actually had a detrimental affect, and prevented herd immunity. (Another term I'm not supposed to mention!)
The answer is to protect the vulnerable. People who are over 70, or have serious health conditions.
But sure, keep believing in the media that lie to you about everything, and keep on being a sheeple while Big Pharma laughs all the way to the Bank.
That will show them.
Except we never really locked down like other countries, Europe had much more severe restrictions than the US as did other countries. Yes states with large cities on the east coast that were first to experience the virus were hit the hardest, no surprise.
I think a lot of people thought that herd immunity would hit before they needed to get vaccinated. They probably would have been right had it not been for the more contagious delta strain.
At any rate, if anyone on this board doesn't get the flu shot every year, then they have no leg to stand on criticizing those who don't get the Covid vaccine.
"As of this week, 70% of the adult population in the United States have received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine."
"Black and Hispanic people remain less likely than their White counterparts to have received a vaccine, leaving them at increased risk, particularly as the variant spreads."

"Black and Hispanic people remain less likely than their White counterparts to have received a vaccine, leaving them at increased risk, particularly as the variant spreads."
But the mainstream propaganda media can't weaponize that to assist the Democrats, so you have to attack Republicans for being unvaccinated and ignore that they are far more likely to get vaccinated than millennials, blacks, or Hispanics.
Quick get a poll out again that severely underpolls blue voters that don't get vaccinated in big numbers like blacks, Hispanics, and millennials so we can weaponize the poll against red voters as it falsely makes the gap bigger!
Well done repeating nicely from Fox News From the same people who talk about the left cannot think for themselves.
If not, all those damn illegals were not here everything would be so peachy.
Republicans and Trump had 2017-2018 for immigration and what did they do? Nothing. Cause it's all scapegoating using racist people as yourself to enrich themselves.
"Republicans and Trump had 2017-2018 for immigration and what did they do?"
Only reduced ILLEGALS from entering by RECORD NUMBERS.
Only got Mexico to STOP so many from crossing through their country.
Only got Mexico to hold illegals on THEIR side of the border while waiting to see a judge to seek asylum. About 80% are DENIED
You ARE aware of all the crap he got from trying to build a wall capable of deterring crossing, aren't you?
Maybe if you were to WATCH FOX once in a while, you would NOT post such ignorant claims.
"Cause it's all scapegoating using racist people as yourself to enrich themselves."
Then you should also understand why we, as a nation, blame the willfully unvaccinated.
If they are eligible for the vaccine and they choose to decline vaccination due to lingering concerns, then they shoulder the responsibility for not only themselves, but also for consequences to public health, the economy, and policies that ensue.
If they weigh their nebulous concerns about “long-term side-effects” against the demonstrated benefits of vaccination, and decline the vaccine, they need to assume the blame. There are societal consequences to choosing yourself over society. There are consequences to not doing your part to mitigate the risk of straining our healthcare system.
People are free to choose, this is not the question.
But people are not free from consequences. If you choose yourself over social responsibility during a pandemic, don’t expect society to welcome you with open arms.
This isn’t rocket science folks.
Do you feel the same about people who choose not to take a flu shot every year? Flu also spreads and kills people every single year. I’ve never heard of anyone blaming others for giving them the flu or calling people who don’t want the flu shot murderers.
The older people who refuse the Covid vaccine may live to regret it. The younger people may end up with a mild case of Covid and add to our level of herd immunity. If the virus really starts harming more and more people, they will choose to get the shot on their own. The fact is that most people who are vulnerable to this disease have already been vaccinated.
If Covid were severe enough to larger segments of the population they wouldn’t need a PR campaign to convince young people to take the jab.
