I recently accepted someone I knew from high school as a friend and I already regret it. It took me less than two days to unfriend her because she was a Trump Kool-Aid pusher. Hopefully she will see the video.

They said on MSNBC that some "panel" is deciding whether to let him back or not today. And you know that he'll bring all his "followers" with him. Haven't we learned a lesson? Allowing him on any public forum only empowers his deluded acolytes, they're crazy enough as it is!

It needs to run as a PSA on every channel: OTA, cable, satellite, and streaming. Needs to be ran 10 times a day on every one of them.

I have a neice who is 2 semesters away from getting her nursing degree who has "read somewhere"... etc... and won't get the vaccine.

And I know what you mean, even people who should know better are inexplicably against getting vaccinated. It makes no sense - we all were vaccinated against polio, smallpox and other deadly diseases.

I know a reasonably sensible man in his mid 80s who said he's not getting the vaccine. He said that his daughter's a nurse in the hospital and she isn't getting it and he gets his medical advice from her!

There's the "my body my choice" clever-dick who calls people who get vaxxed "sheep" and "guinea pigs" (and is almost certainly opposed to a woman's right to control HER body).

Conversely there's the spineless groveling simp who snivels that "studies show we shouldn't demonize" or otherwise hurt the gossamer fee-fees of bloated-corpse-looking trumpkins who yell at children every day that wearing a mask makes them Nazis.

And there's the clown who insists there's a "debate" about vaccine efficacy and safety, assuring us there's a large number of antivax "doctors" who aren't named Rand Paul or have a TV show.
