Trump’s big fat abject lie …and why he keeps telling it.

The only thing I question about your assertion is that the responsibility lies in: "Trumps childish and narcissistic inability to ever admit having being wrong on anything".

 

I suspect the truth goes much, much deeper than this. Trump withstood his entire support base boo'ing him at his own rallies when he pushed this. And It happened every single time. A true narcissist would have stopped talking about it long ago. Narcissists crave public adulation, and he definitely doesn't get it on this. Whatever the purpose of these jabs was, it is intimately connected to the larger espionage warfare that Trump has been engaged in and that we have been living through these last several years. If Trump is still speaking about this, it means that he's doing it for a strategic purpose. Possibly to expose whatever malevolent force is truly behind it.

 

I consider the jabs to be a crime against humanity. And for the life of me I can't understand why Trump took it down this path.  But there is a bigger war at play here, and until we get full disclosure and all the facts of everything that has been hidden from us, I am not going to rush to a snap judgement. But that said, yes. I too want to see Trump be forced to explain how he could condemn so many people to suffering and death, no matter his true goal and the larger war he has been fighting.

 

Trump is just one of the faces of a deep, global paradigm shift which has happened over the last decade (from globalism to national sovereignty).

 

It's all about the result. If the desired result is achieved (i.e. complete dismantling and/or neutralisation of the pharmaceutical and banking cartels), then it means the people at the helm (and that includes Trump and many other people) did the right thing at the right moment. Whether people understand it or not is secondary and, ultimately, irrelevant.

Why am I unable to quote anything from page 1?

Obviously I can on page 2.

Not sure if I can agree with a Machiavellian "the ends justify the means" approach, but I can appreciate your argument.

 

For me though, the manner in which the end of the criminal syndicate is achieved is also a very important consideration. If there were better ways to have accomplished the goal which could have resulted in less suffering to people, that is very relevant to the discussion, and Trump doesn't get a free pass just because the way he chose might have been easier for him than others. There has to be a strong reason why there was no other way, and he is going to have to explain and justify that.

I guess you don't remember things like mandatory vaccine requirements to enter countries.

Countless companies forced their employees to take it… after a period of severe economic stress. I personally know several people in Thailand who were faced with that prospect, including an English guy, married with two kids, who would have been on the streets with his family if he had refused. Yes, it was forced on him (and he didn't want to take it).

 

Indirect coercion is coercion. "You're free to not take it but you will lose everything", that's coercion.

I agree that there should be (and hope there will be) light shone on those years and what went down behind the scenes.

 

Covid was a declaration of war on mankind, and Trump, in his own words in March 2020, was "a wartime president". If you look at history, leaders in times of war are rarely faced with good choice/bad choice dichotomies, they make the least bad choice in extremely difficult circumstances.

There was still a choice to be made. Coercion yes but not forced.

I traveled numerous times to Thailand during that time and the only requirement was to prove your didn't have covid via a pretravel test. There was still a choice to be made, so you were not forced

I understand Dr, Stillwagon was predicting a major airline catastrophe, caused by aircraft staff having compulsory vaccinations.

 

Airline safety continues to improve, except in Russia.

 

I also understand during the height of the COVID pandemic, unvaccinated COVID patients were 6-7 times more likely to need ICU admission than vaccinated patients.

 

Ho-hum, another anti-vaxxer thread. It reminds me of Einstein's comment about the Universe and human stupidity.

 

What would a day be on here without you calling people dumb and stupid.

Exactly. I dont like the vaccines, vaccine mandates (I was FORCED) and I think they could be harmful (like any other drug), but then the OP ruins the whole topic with silliness.

well I  during my 78 years of life have had numerous vacinations - especially for military and then for career being assigned around the world including underveloped Africa.  BUT, the COVID vacinations are an entirely different brand of medicine, from what I have read that actually can alter one's DNA and thus the big problem - especially in the autoimmunity parts of a person's body.  I know that it has affected mine, allergies that previously were "ignored" by my system now are affected regularly and it isn't age related.  I think there should definitely be a class action suit against the manufacturers (many of whom got rich off this), the pharmas and the govt that "forced" this on the public without knowing all the facts.  This is my honest opinion based on experiencing the after effects.

Regardless of the subject of vaccines the real fact is that Trump is a serial liar and has been his whole fake life.

There are other countries than Thailand. You know that right?

Did you know that COVID-jabs are STILL required when applying for a Visa to visit the US? 

And that - besides the perks, help and support you receive - it is NOT required when entering the US illegally.

All you gotta do is take a look at countries that had very little vaccine administration and they did not have excess mortality.

If you don't disburse the vaccine and you don't track the impact of the disease on the population, the result is a perceived low mortality from the disease and/or misdiagnosis of the impact of the disease.

45th POTUS Trump faced a conundrum: On the one hand 45th POTUS Trump correctly took credit for producing the covid vaccine at "warp speed" to save lives, but on the other hand 45th POTUS Trump denied Am,erican deaths from covid and wouldn't put resources into tracking the extent of spread of the disease because the vaccine proved successful.

But there was a considerable time lapse before the vaccine was available and the spread of covid.
