An awful pick and very difficult to comprehend.

I really really REALLY hate to say it, but it reminds of Trump's hiring of the Swamp in his first term.

Yeah, ouch. I so want to put my fingers in my ears and say, "LALALALALA." But I do like your apostrophe.

If Mattis, McMaster and the other high-ranking goofballs make their return we'll know. I want to give Trump and his advisors the benefit of the doubt at this point. His election victory shows that he understands the game. My hope is that there's a strategy involved with these nominations given that the nomination process with appointments like Kennedy and Gabbard is going to be difficult. There are too many RINOs and DNC allies in congress whose only interest is self-preservation and blocking Trump's efforts.

I agree 100%. I am trying to stay positive and not get all worked up at this point. As Jeff likes to say Trump is playing 4D chess. Let’s see what happens. He’s not stupid. He knows how people feel and o don’t think he’s going to appoint a bunch of pharma shills. Bobby has his ear and the transition team all has input into who might get nominated.

"He’s not stupid."

Then he must be evil. Or maybe little of both.

I'm shocked at how tone deaf the man is when it comes to ideology.

Trump has a lot of talents but on a lot of things he is not the sharpest tool in the shed. He really has no ideology of his own, just pragmatism.

I hope she's another sacrificial lamb for the advise and consent process. Problem is, she just might get confirmed.

I wish the Senate would remember that the language is "advise and consent;" not "advise and reject."

Someone so dedicated to the profits of Pfizer will not have the slightest difficulty in getting confirmed. And Trump knows it.

Exactly.

To comprehend it, I find myself forced to conclude that Trump is betraying us all to Pfizer.

Clearly a paid troll of some sort. No one posts the same comment that much unless they are being paid by the comment. More importantly, have people not figured out that Trump argued to remove the mrna vaccines from the market? The vaccines were only allowed to be on the market due to emergency use authorization, which meant no other effective pre-existing treatments could exist. So, when Trump argued for alternative, existing therapies (like hydroxychloroquine and others) he was, in effect, arguing to pull the vaccines.

More 57-D chess, right?

RU's avatar

No, just normal chess. Pretty typical approach in corporate America, where you can't directly make many claims w/o setting off fire alarms with the various gov't agents (aka HR) and whiny always "offended" crowd. So, you have to make your case in a more circuitous way. Leaders in large corporations do this all the time.

Either way, he made arguments for other existing treatments, which has the same effect as arguing to remove the vaccines. He also paid a heavy price for it, many times over.

"Trump argued to remove the mrna vaccines from the market"

WOW are you delusional. This is Trump just four days ago:

"During the COVID-19 pandemic, she worked on the front lines in New York City

treating thousands of Americans and helped patients in the aftermath of President

Donald Trump's Historic Operation Warp Speed that saved hundreds of millions

of lives."

Does that sounds like he's about to remove them from the market?

RU's avatar

LOL. Way to take my words out of context and quote only the part you wanted. As I said, when he argued for alternative therapies - which he did, repeatedly - it was in effect an argument to take the vaccines off the market. If there were any other existing effective drugs, the mrna shots could legally not be on the market. Simply the facts. Move along.

Well, whatever you're selling, I'm not buying it. Constant negativity is a sign of a chronic complainer who has nothing good to offer.

👍🏼 I agree LuAnne. When a person posts the same message this many times it becomes noise (and seemingly an agenda they are promoting ) and I ignore and skip over them.

patrick.net/memes's avatar

My agenda is only:

1. stop the deadly mRNA jabs

2. try and punish everyone who mandated them

3. try and punish Pfauci for creating the virus in Wuhan with our money

I have never wavered from that even an inch.

A little "question everything" is in order when objecting to mass murder by injection (OWS).

Patrick.net, go back to your website and bloviate there.

Doesn't it seem that way?

I like to think I put principles (like the right to choose what goes into your own bloodstream) above people.

I'm for Trump the degree that he aligns with good principles and opposed to the degree that he does not. Right now, he looks like he sold out to Pfizer.

Fre'd Bennett, MAHA's avatar

I'm right there too. I really hope we're somehow wrong about him.

And I was initially ecstatic to hear Gaetz and RFK to be nominated.

But I can't forget how Trump filled his first term with Deep State shills, over and over and over again. (Not to mention how he screwed RFK the first time.)

He's not a good man. He's not even a decent man. He's a narcissistic idiot with a cult following.

Yeah. Many of us spoke out and tried to warn everyone that Trump is a big swamp member himself. But most people here found that theory blasphemous.
