I generally do not watch Trump rallies. I don’t need to be convinced to vote for him should he decide to run in 2024 and unlike the current occupant of the White House, President Donald Trump can go without taking a break for hours. But I watched his first rally of 2022 in Florence, Arizona, because I wanted to hear one thing.
Or, to be more accurate, I was hoping to NOT hear one thing, and thankfully I didn’t hear it.
After chastising his supporters during the last two rallies for not embracing the vaccines that he made possible through Operation Warp Speed, he conspicuously did not promote them or the booster shots at this rally. Instead, he railed against the vaccine mandates being imposed on healthcare workers, heralded the nutraceuticals he not only promoted as President but that he took himself when he had Covid, and didn’t once tell anyone to get the jabs. He used his time for more productive topics like the economy, the border crisis, and the January 6 witch hunt.

Leave it to the individual, yes, Mr. Trump?
The mandates have always been the big problem. I have been happy to see Trump criticize the mandates. That was crucial.
I have felt that it was unfortunate that he pushed the vaccines, but his administration did develop them, the scientists told him they were good, so it wasn’t too surprising that Trump was saying the vaccines were a good thing.
But it’s 2022.
It’s more obvious that the vaccines are bad.
It’s more obvious that we don’t need vaccines to make this thing go away.
It’s more obvious that his base doesn’t support the vaccines.
Trump isn’t dumb. He’s not pushing vaccines in 2022. Why would he? He’s learned a few things. Unlike Joe.
Trump got bad advice from the ‘experts’ who touted vaccines.
Trump got bad advice from the ‘experts’ who touted ventilators.
Trump got bad advice from the ‘experts’ who decried therapeutics like HCQ.
If Trump had acted on his own intuition instead of bad advice from experts, Trump would have flooded the USA with HCQ and then later with Ivermectin and then Regeneron.
And while it looks like he finally realizes how much he was duped by "Big Pharma" and it trying to distance himself from it, I fully expect the Dems to attempt to saddle Trump with the vax issues as well as being responsible in some way for the mandate by late 2023 ....
Trump has to get back on social media. He has lost touch
Methinks Trump let his ego along with fear get the better of him with pushing the jabs,
***I agree there was some of Trump’s ego involved. But look, he dropped his ego and generated silence in support of the jabs within a few short weeks. That is a sign that he is what Scott Adams calls a “Master Persuader”. It is a smart move on his part.
i was watching the rally on Real America’s News, and as soon as it was over they went to a small panel that included Amanda Head, who I believe they started with.
The first words out of her mouth were regarding her tremendous relief in how he had changed his message. She went on and on about it, to the point the others were looking at the ground nervously.
It’s most likely the correct political move for him to change his message. I just hope that’s not the only reason he’s doing it.
Agree, he was between and rock and a hard place but even then the Deep State overlords already planned they would not seat Trump for his second term since he was in the way of the take down of our country to 3rd world status. I’m glad that he has pivoted away from the absurdity of the Covid mandates. Certainly not a popular or winning issue.
Of course they will! Socialists ALWAYS project their evil ideas (in other words, the vast majority of their ideas) and evil/wrong actions, onto their enemies.
The good news is, there exists a Judge who knows all, who is more Just than any human judge, who WILL judge such people.

Social media? All the tyrants have banned him. Besides, he posts every day on Telegram, same things he would have posted on Twitter. Do you follow him? He hasn’t lost touch.
Intuition is fairly dependent on what we infer from what those who know more than us about a huge range of subjects have shared. One can sometimes be fooled and wise up as Trump seems to be doing. But O don’t think there is any such thing as a reasonable common sense intuition built by rejecting the knowledge of experts. Best we can do is learn to spot when experts are lying. We can’t simply stop relying on them unless we are content to know nothing about anything beyond our own subjective experiences.
Operating in the truth sets one free!
I’m pretty sure this is Trump’s account on gab.com although that may come down when he launches his own social media site supposedly next month.

Yup.
He also received advice from deep state swampsters about how to …drain the swamp. Hopefully he knows better now.
Yet another bait article to attract the never Trump posers...
Like flies on cheet.
It’s not a big deal - he expressed his opinion that’s all - he’s a known germaphobe - who cares if he is pro vaccine?
He’s always been against lockdowns and mandates - he didn’t pivot about anything.
There are lots of trolls, never-Trumpers and closet Cruz supporters who are still butt hurt over him calling Cruz Lyin’ Ted - they want to make Trump look bad.
They act like his pro-vaccine comments are some kind of betrayal, or try to pick a fight between Trump and DeSantis, or say he “abandoned the Jan 6 detainees”’or whatever.
It’s the usual trolls - variation on a theme. He’s not presidential - he lets Ivanka and Jared tell him what to think - he is bad at picking staff - he is too old - his ego is too big.
Bull - I just saw him in Arizona - he is still awesome.
Trump is a businessman/salesman. He recognizes his limitations and relies on other people. Many politicians consider themselves experts on everything. Think of Gore and the internet global warming, and healthcare.
I bet is was very surprising to Trump how corrupt the US experts in government and academia are. The Federal government has gotten too large and powerful and it has corrupted everything. Even many church denominations.
