Candace Owens says Trump believes in vaccines because he only reads mainstream news and is not on the internet
-------
In a Friday livestream, Owens claimed that Trumps embrace of the Covid-19 vaccines is the result of his reliance on mainstream news sources, which she said had left him unfamiliar with unsubstantiated theories that question the vaccines from more obscure websites.
I've seen other people that are older have the exact same perspective. Like they came from a time before TV, before internet, before being able to conduct their independent research
and everything that they read in a newspaper that was pitched to them
they believed that that was a reality, she said.

(4,011 posts)When she says he comes from a generation believing they were going to die without vaccines, before TV, before the internet, before they were able to conduct their own independent research, she seems ignorant of the fact that it used to be that people trained to do research were the ones who did research. I dont know what you call what Candace and her minions do, but it aint research.
