If you were coerced, bullied, told to, mandated to get the shot and you didn't, you are a stand up dude in my book. All of the above happened to me and I refused. I still have my fake vaccine card, that I never used, for sentimental reasons.

I don't think any of us have a problem with someone taking the jab of their own free will.

Trump encouraged creating the vaccine. It was the soulless shitstain democrats led by that child molesting vermin Joe Biden that managed getting it or face losing your house, going hungry, etc. They're the ones who trial ballooned taking people's kids, denying medical care, etc...specifically to destroy their political opponents.

All of them should be punished. From the democrat voters to the politicians to the talking heads in the Lugenpresse. None of them should ever be able to cast a vote on anything even remotely important to our Republic ever again...and that's me being VERY kind about it.

Like most people going to the VA, I was mandated to take the shot. Disliked it, didn't want to, but couldn't get out of it.
The boosters, though - never.
I did some info tracking and discovered the batch of J&J shots we took were at the top of the heap for side effects. Including a cardiac event that I experienced while at the VA Medical Center. Not fun.
Nor am I inclined to forgive the evil perpetrators of this affront to a free people.

If the focus of your life in 2026 is whether or not you got the Covid shot, I’m not too worried about your life being superior. It’s actually pretty pathetic.

Why don’t you instead Tell us what you’ve accomplished in the last five years. How you’ve made the world around you a better place; what you’ve invested or what you’ve built, The people whose lives you have poured into. The meaningful things that you’ve spent your time on that will actually last.

He let Fauci run the Covid response, later Fauci would come up with the push for mandates. You think Trump wouldn't have followed that little swamp critters guidance?
Trump had doctors in his Administration that told him the response was wrong and Trump ignored them and let Fauci/Birx dictate what was going to happen. You really think he'd suddenly grow a spine and turn his back on Pfizer/Moderna?

Who said this?

We’re here to discuss a monumental national achievement. From the instant the coronavirus invaded our shores, we raced into action to develop a safe and effective vaccine at breakneck speed. It would normally take five years, six years, seven years, or even more. In order to achieve this goal, we harnessed the full power of government, the genius of American scientists, and the might of American industry to save millions and millions of lives all over the world. We’re just days away from authorization from the FDA, and we’re pushing them hard, at which point we will immediately begin mass distribution.

My administration provided a total of $14 billion to accelerate vaccine development and to manufacture all of the top candidates in advance — long in advance.

As a result of this unprecedented investment, we are exceedingly proud that both Pfizer and Moderna have announced that their vaccines are approximately 95 percent effective,

Trump's intentions were good. Everyone with a few brain cells knew the deep swamp was there, but I think the virus and the administration that followed t exposed the depth of the swap beyond most people ever imagined.

While the vaccine was being developed I couldn't wait to get it. I truly thought it would be something like rubella, polio, mumps, and diphtheria, vaccines.   Then when it came out later it needed a booster.  I'm like what the fuck. I got that one too  and it really knocked me on my ass.  That was the end of that.

It was the democrats that made the shots mandatory to get on a plane,  train, or bus.   It was the democrats that tried to make it mandatory in order to get health care or buy groceries.  It was the democrats down on Ozzieland that put their citizens in concentration camps of they popped hot for Covid.  It was the democrats that made going to church illegal, but allowed rioting in the streets.

So get the fuck out of here with all that "God-emperor" bullshit.

My wife and I watched "Rural Health Matters" on RFD-TV and, from the weekly charts and graphs we saw, determined that, because of our age and comorbidities, our risks from catching COVID were greater than from the side effects of the vax. Therefore, we took them. We live in a free state (TN) and are retired so there was no coercion.
I tested positive three times, once was like a bad cold, one like a mild case of the flu, and the third time I showed no symptoms. She never even tested positive. Neither of us experienced any side effects.

This is the August 16, 2021 broadcast. The data is presented in the first ~15 minutes of the video.

To this very day I believe the clot shot was a trial run for the Mark of the Beast.  Some took the vax because they were afraid, but most took it out of fear of losing their jobs and everything else that depends on their job.  The MOTB is going to have way more negative repercussions for not taking it.  

Most people failed the test run.

I know it's super fun and topical to get that superiority hit and bag on those who took it but there were circumstances where some people didn't see (or have) an alternative.

Hindsight is 20/20. I didn't advocate for it then, sure don't now, but with two elderly parents in the hospital at the same time for large surgeries, I needed to be able to see them and check on them. And the hospitals were gatekeeping.

So feel good if you need to that some people took the jab. I'm not happy about it, nor proud, but the neeners don't need to be there.

I doubt he was vaccinated.  I read his book.  Trump thinks he has superior genetics.  He announced he was immune after contracting Covid.

Trump's initial reaction was to do nothing but as President he was pressured to do something.

Trump did not mandate the shot like Biden.

I got the jab so I could work. I was about to be laid off as the only place I could work required the jab. I was an electrician at the time and no one was hiring and I was union.

My theory and justification to myself was I took 2 different strains of anthrax shots in the Navy and all the other bullshit shots they gave us, what was one more to provide for my family…..

I truly didn’t want to do it but when money was an issue (had an expensive lawyer for my kids well being), it became a no brainer.
