Most of those conservatives convinced the election was stolen also think 300,000 dead from Covid should have been worse if it wasn’t for Trump. Here’s an example.

Only because of Trump’s leadership we have a vaccine so early. His actions save 100s of thousands of lifes because of warp speed and keeping China mostly out after 1/2020.

I found this response to the above very funny. Was the UK part of Warp Speed b/c they got it first?

Prognosis
Trump’s ‘Operation Warp Speed’ Aims to Rush Coronavirus Vaccine
By Jennifer Jacobs and Drew Armstrong
April 29, 2020

The Trump administration is organizing a Manhattan Project-style effort to drastically cut the time needed to develop a coronavirus vaccine, with a goal of making enough doses for most Americans by year’s end.

Called “Operation Warp Speed,” the program will pull together private pharmaceutical companies, government agencies and the military to try to cut the development time for a vaccine by as much as eight months, according to two people familiar with the matter.

As part of the arrangement, taxpayers will shoulder much of the financial risk that vaccine candidates may fail, instead of drug companies.

The project’s goal is to have 300 million doses of vaccine available by January, according to one administration official. There is no precedent for such rapid development of a vaccine.

But even Fauci’s prospective 12-to-18-month timetable would be years faster than typical vaccine development. A vaccine for the Ebola virus that went into clinical trials in 2014 received approval from U.S. regulators in December -- a five-year effort considered remarkable for its speed.

Last month, Trump directed Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar to speed development of a vaccine, and administration officials have been meeting on the effort for three to four weeks, one of the people said. A meeting on the project was scheduled at the White House on Wednesday.

A spokesman for the Department of Health and Human Services, Michael Caputo, said the president refused to accept the timeline for standard vaccine development and encouraged a breakthrough process.


The people familiar with the project and the administration officials asked not to be identified because it hasn’t yet been publicly announced.

and keeping China mostly out after 1/2020.

Again Trump gets a Thumbs up for funding warp speed , but it’s the POTUS responsibility, to the American people.. its only special in the eyes of the faithful, you know what else happen at warp speed his whole inner circle got Covid and his faithful saw that as special as well


Did you even read the article from these same 2 people nov 20th article https://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...not-washington. Which states

The truth is that Pfizer didn’t receive any funding from Operation Warp Speed for the development, clinical trial and manufacturing of the vaccine. Rather, its partner, BioNTech SE, has received money -- from the German government.

Now you sound like lura Ingram , she said if you count the A symptomatic people with Covid the death rate is less than the Flu .. now Americans are a seen as % point and Americans aren’t done dying ,

Its disgusting she is pandering to Trump and his base , When’s the last time 300,000 Americans died from the flu and she also thinks because now there is a vaccine it’s over and anything other than returning to normal tomorrow, is a sign liberals still want to control us and limit our freedoms

the germans could use some vaccine...


Dec. 14, 2020

In a record-setting day on Friday, Germany recorded 29,875 new cases and 598 new deaths. (probably trump's fault)


I don't think it's going to be approved by the government for a while though.....
