President Trump proved that America First policies work WITHOUT needing to use tyrannical government powers or gross unconstitutional overreach, and he did it even in the face of overwhelming opposition and great personal sacrifice.
He singlehandedly woke 75% of Americans up to the idea that all our institutions are corrupted and forced them to reveal themselves, while also doing virtually everything possible to outmaneuver their plans AND overwhelmingly win another election (a huge achievement on its own without which we would have no real claim to take action). He even personally financed the research and effort to show you how they stole the election and delivered the best realistic plan to win going forward.
Should we cut him some slack because surrounded by traitorous vipers he couldn’t easily fire; he was also fighting a biological attack, simultaneous mass riots, lying traitors at every level and branch of government, an impeachment and corrupt criminal probe, and a mob trying to burn down the White House? Then, while he also had to campaign to win an election by getting the most votes of any president in history to have a large enough margin to prove massive fraud he rightly expected?
From soon after his 2016 win, Trump correctly realized that the thing he needed to demonstrate is that even our interagency failure machine could post wins if they actually cared about protecting American’s interests.
Trump knew. He knew that he was under attack.
People act like it’s valid to complain
‘Why can’t Trump personally design and validate cures for this disease?!!’
It’s not like he was too busy to learn emergency pulmonary medicine in between manufacturing and delivering new designs for medical equipment; that doctors around the world said they needed immediately, getting tests that they said were critical designed and manufactured to replace the CDC’s failed ones; building and deploying field hospitals and ships to alleviate catastrophic stress that was predicted for hospitals; finding and calling attention to working therapeutic options; airlifting stranded Americans around the world back home; navigating the legal issues of state shutdown orders, mask mandates, and quarantines, combatting daily misinformation and panic mongering by fake news, getting emergency relief to critical industries and half a country forced out of work, and even battling through an outbreak attacking White House staff, Administration officials, and even his self and family!
He followed the constitution, appropriately letting governors and states sort it out for themselves first, and provided good counsel (‘back to normal by Easter’ and ‘I’m not a doctor but let’s take a look at these therapeutics) that we’re met with apoplectic reactionary hysteria, both in the press and by the public.
Help us cover our monthly costs
Given that reaction, he was justifiably hesitant to make the situation worse by declaring mask mandates and lockdowns a civil rights violation (and having Barr et al immediately override him, which would have had the effect of cementing their legality).
The China Virus can be deadly, just like flu, in the sense that people die from it. And the early intelligence showed it was likely a biological weapon.
So an emergency declaration was in order. If he did nothing, he’d look like he was wrong — remember how they howled about him calling it the “Democrat’s next hoax”? — like every other attempt to destroy Trump, the CCP virus attack exploited avenues where the President is obligated to defer to some process or ‘expert’ recommendation, and he was under active threat of impeachment, purposefully timed to coincide with the outbreak. Even as managed to defeat that political trial they threatened another based on the very fake news ‘failure to take it seriously’ narrative they were pushing in the press.
Despite that, he constantly talked about opening up, therapies, herd immunity, etc. Remember the press reaction?!
The task of bringing an experimental vaccine to market is a remarkable achievement, if for no other reason than it stops the world from killing itself with mindless hysteria.
Making an experimental vaccine available is completely separate from the task of fully assessing the efficacy and safety of that vaccine, just as measures to make experimental treatments available to terminal patients certainly isn’t the same as rolling them out for everyone, much less forcing people to take them!
And there are other factors to consider:
-
With a vaccine in hand, further lockdowns are hard to justify— the left clearly wanted to leverage their emergency powers indefinitely into the future. And the lockdowns were an immediate health crisis and existential risk to national security.
-
A faster vaccine deployment limited the fuckery that the pharmaceutical snakes could engineer into it, and potentially exposes side effects faster, before everyone has been ‘marked by the beast’.
-
Clearing out a pathway to accomplish a task is not the same as doing the task correctly. Trump didn’t design the vaccine itself, and has no way of independently checking the expert’s claims. And he continually stressed therapeutic remedies as an alternative to vaccination. The tow truck driver isn’t responsible for the mechanic’s shitty work.
-
You can make a good case that Trump should have ‘forced’ the economy to open and declared mask mandates a civil rights violation. Barr’s rhetoric shows there was some discussion of doing this, but of course those bagpipes needed blowing! Trump’s legal pathway to accomplish this was unclear and he was probably advised that it would only extend the shutdowns if he tried.
Ultimately a populist President tries to deliver what the people demand — and people demanded a vaccine. That this was hysteria driven by a treasonous media’s lies is true, but that changes little. Trump tried to get opening by Easter, tried to deliver the therapeutic “magic pill” AND he clearly told us the media was an enemy of the people, but the sheeple spit all that back up like a dog’s medicine and made ‘vaccine availability’ the only win condition. So he delivered.
Like I said, The tow truck driver isn’t responsible for the mechanic’s shitty work.
And we lost the tow truck driver and are stuck with a shitty mechanic who is now creating pile ups, grid locks and has brought the entire workshop to a grinding halt.
Worse still, it is obvious no one is actually driving the tow truck anymore.
