Trump’s ego and his inability to admit he was manipulated will keep him from getting ahead of this and it may bury him. A little humility and acknowledging the jab disaster would go a long way but I’m not holding my breath.

Good thing Deb Brix admitted she lied her ass off constantly when it came time

To keep the POTUS informed.

The most hilarious recent development on Twitter is the left turning Brix into a Trumper, when she literally wrote the book about how she constantly lied to him.

I don't think blaming Trump will get very far, especially among the low info voters. What will stick in their memory is the last year and a half is the masks, lockdowns, poison vaccines, and general misery, Etc. They don't read much political stuff like we do. The elite left does, but they rotate in their Marxist bubble and rarely go outside of it. They are deranged with TDS and will never give up blaming everything on PDJT. At the first signs of the pandemic, most of the world's leaders were afraid the China Flu was a real bioweapon and reacted accordingly. It may still be one that somehow jumped the CCP reservation. This includes Trump. If he overreacted, he certainly wasn't alone.

I don't now if I'd say Trump overreacted. I remember he criticism of him not reacting soon or severely enough. I remember the screaming when he suggested suspending entry visas for non-citizens traveling from the region then known to be the origin of the vaccine - consistent with the WHO recommendation at the time - the recommendation WHO reversed the week after Trump suggested following it!

Sadly, many of those 'low information voters' are highly educated and read a LOT of political stuff - stuff carefully crafted to give them only "the information the need to know" to support the narrative of The Party.

Trump should use it to get out ahead. Will he?

Expand full comment

He should. He hears his own crowds scream boo's at him when he mentions the vaccine. He could use a little humility and an after action report reflection. It is OK to pull back, load it into the gigantic dumpster truckload of "the deep state is also a wide state and it was worse than I thought" and get his folks rallying. Will he? A good question Green Hornet. People are mad. He can choose whose side he is on. One day the door will be closed.

Raptor, it's a timing thing. Got a hurricane coming in, (elections, MSM, gov agencies, etc.) will it break left or right, I gotta think he's waiting, and chooses not to tip his hand at this time...which is a bit painful emotionally if you like him, and I do. Gotta defer to the BOSS.

When Trump announced his intentions to run in 2016 I knew it was going to be an interesting year. All the media - left, right and sideways - laughed openly at the thought. No chance. What party would have him? Can't do it without the party. Last billionaire to take a shot at the status quo without a dominant party was squashed and shamed. The status quo has more billionaires, and the force of government. Trump would be another Perot.

The flaw in 2016 was Hillary Clinton. The Party had chosen here in a back room deal in 2008. Clinton did her part to get Obama and he payout was the 2016 nomination. Carrier politician Sanders made a good show, like a prize fighter bought to take a dive while making it look convincing. Hillary was so, so bad that only the most dedicated of the faithful could hold on. There was a large number of the faithful who's faith had been shaken by the Obama years, scandal after scandal - not broken but somewhat bent.

The GOP did it's part too, offering up a vast array of clowns and statesmen so eager to tear each other down. Piled on top of 8 years of mostly ineffectiveness in Congress, failing to curb escalating spending and other disastrous policies, and not much different in key states. It was a party weakened by it's entrenched leadership, like a company out of touch with their customers pretending that dwindling sales are a 'seasonal blip' or 'just the economy' and not seeing the disgruntled shareholders. Ripe for a hostile takeover. And that is what Trump did - a hostile takeover of the GOP despite the efforts of the establishment. That too was his high crime. He did not submit to obscurity like Perot.

So what happened in 2020? With win after win from 2016 through the end of 2019, 2020 seemed like a lock. Roaring economy with real, good jobs, not just more prosperity for the richest (like himself) or minimum wage below-subsistence jobs. World-wide, the impacts of Trump's reversing decades of repressive energy policy mandates had freed the US and much of Europe from the oppressive grip of OPEC+Russia. In very visible ways people could see the increased stability in Europe. Between that and actually getting a corporate tax structure that was much closer to competitive with our international trade partners, we had growing investment in areas of the US that had been left for dead, or at least, for China. The net for both federal and state governments were major increases in tax revenue - for real. All that made Trump hard to beat.

So we can understand confidence going into 2020. But the reaction to COVID in 2020 was targeted squarely at derailing much of those gains. And in a few months of lockdowns and shutdowns and isolation, the lock was broken. Did Trump remain too confident? I mean, who would have bet on Biden as a winning candidate at the start of 2020? Be honest....

Did Trump learn from the experience? The Trump haters like to think of him as an idiot, but experience teaches that one should never underestimate an opponent. That was key to victory in 2016 and The Party did learn. So did Trump learn enough from 2020-22 to counter? He should have learned that the status quo has vast resources and power and that no extreme is too extreme to win.

I think that 2022-24 is going to be interesting.

Yes, this! He STILL hails himself as the creator of warp speed to rush the vax - he’s completely clueless and they’ll rain the napalm down on him. Tone deaf idiot, who never needs to ask forgiveness from God Almighty because he doesn’t sin or make mistakes. (Look up the 2016 cpac interviews, I watched him say it). With this type of narcissistic maniac competition it’s hard to tell who’s worse, him or tony. If the Donald keeps beating the warp speed drum - he’s toast. And I don’t see him having the ability to flip.

Expand full comment

Oh, Tony “I AM the Science” is worse, at least that’s my vote.

That Trump is a narcissist, no one can deny. But I believe he at least TRIED to get HCQ, etc. out there and was largely working with advisors he. for whatever reason, assumed knew more about medical issues than he. He was one of the poor sops who still bought into the lie, “The alphabet groups have our best interest at heart and will do the right thing”. Trumps claims that C19 was Wuhan-originated and GoF, and “bleach works” plus HCQ helps were met with a tsunami of nay-sayers, hand wavers and downright scoffers. For weeks it was “Ridicule R Us” every time he took the podium! I believe he was getting some GOOD council— hence the HCQ remarks, but plenty of BAD council, and was thusly unable to stand firm

on a good foundation. After all, we’re you completely certain that the FDA/CDC, et al were 100% evil at that time? I still suffered under the delusion that if there was a solution/cure out there, they’d let us know.

Tony “the Science” KNEW EXACTLY what he was peddling, where it originated, what would help but was to be “whack-a-moled” into oblivion so EAU status could be achieved. He KNEW FLCCC docs and others were likely correct or at least that they should have a seat at the table. He knew for a fact that Pfizer held the moneybags and needs that EAU for him to be considered the savior. He too is an epic narcissist but he is just smart enough, and just elbow deep in the cookie jar enough, and also just stupid enough to think he could pull it all off and walk away a “caped crusader” with at least a million more bucks in the bank.

Trump still hasn’t thought to shut up abt warp speed but I do not think he had a clue how deep the tentacles of lying sludge ran.

Plus, when Trump was around, I could afford gas & groceries, and I knew the Chinese Communist Party didn’t have dirt on his son the way they do Hunter so if I had to choose which narcissist to follow between Tony “the science” or The Donald, I’d choose the Donald every time. Naïve isn’t near as bad as evil, in my book.

Completely agree. The narcissism maybe a tie but Tony wins the Dr evil award. Just super frustrated that trump doesn’t have the ability to say he was wrong.

Do we not remember how the media et al cried for a national lockdown? Have we forgotten the media fawning over Andrew Cuomo even though his lockdowns were literally murder?

It was in that environment that Trump pushed for streamlining the drug development and approval processes to get a vaccine to market in a timeline never before conceived. That he did so is actually still a feather in his cap. That the vaccine was flawed and still pushed upon the masses by the criminals who followed doesn't change that.

Googling it brings up the denials that it’s NOT gene therapy and lots of “it’s a vaccine” which, based on the lies of the past, makes me believe it’s not a vaccine. If it is, it’s one of the crappiest one ever.

I feel the same. I thought I had a handle on how corrupt The System is, but after the last two years, I now realize we have only scraped the surface of the rot. And it extends through all agencies and institutions - there is nothing that is not contaminated. I had a similar feeling after reading a book by Kimberly Strassel about how the IRS went after the Tea Party during the Obama years. I thought because I listened to Rush, I had some understanding of the process - and then I read that book and kept exclaiming to my husband, "this is really bad."

And I guess my point in saying this is that I don't think even Trump was fully prepared for what he found in DC and at the end of the day, he got rolled too.

We need a fighter and a leader. Unfortunately, with Trump, so also comes an inerrant lack of insight on when to brag on an accomplishment. Certainly, warp speed cut through bureaucracy to bring something forward fast, but that something was not good. Taking credit for Warp Speed is like taking credit for building the railroad that transported the prisoners to Auschwitz.

It was always a huge mistake for Trumpy to claim any kind of credit for either Warp Speed or the "vaccines". Those enjoying their TDS were never going to credit him with anything and he's opened the door to them pushing the blame upon him.

His only saving grace was he never came out in favor of the mandates that Biden embraced so readily but, again, TDS won't allow him even that.

He definitely needs to get in front of this. In fact, he could state that he had no information on safety and assumed the FDA and CDC would follow their established and proven protocols for investigational new medicines - they did not. The rot in that organization has to be removed. Had he been in office, he would never have mandated experimental products on the people. He also should double-down on his initial order to administer HCL off-label, an order that was countermanded by the rot in the deep state.

Blaming Trump for this disaster is like blaming Smith & Wesson for gun crime.

The current Idiot(s) in charge pulled the trigger at every turn. There is probably no greater victim than the military, particularly the young sons and daughters handed over in the name of national defense. The military at the senior level let the idiot abuse their people-the young sons and daughters of America.

Trump's best political play is to swap jerseys and rally the angry mob. One admission that he was duped and then turn the torches to Fauci et al. Someone has to burn and anything said about Trump and Warp Speed will be true and any heat he takes will be well deserved. However, if he does that same thing to a long list of people, the pitchforks will be happier with the others' heads instead of Trump's. Then if he really does it, and I mean really hangs a few hundred people in the public square, he will go down as one of the greatest arbiters of justice the country has ever seen.

@ all the replies here, please understand that "reality" and "truth" and "facts" do not matter one, damn bit here in what el gato is saying. It doesn't matter a damn bit whether Birx said xyz or Fauci or Sick Puppet or FDA CDC NIH WTF said anything because they don't play by our rules. Do you guys get it yet? Like playing football but the other team decides whenever it suits them which rules apply, when it's a penalty, how many points they get for a touchdown, and when your field goals don't count. You can cry and whine all you want but they own the referees, the broadcasters, and most of the coaches. As long as we continue to play their game we will continue to get pummeled.

Think of it this way. When the globalists hit us all w the Scamdemic, it didn't matter a damn bit that they were contravening basic virology, immunology, and medicine. Muzzles, lockdowns, closures, jail time, and fines for you and none of your facts, appeals to science, logic, or the Constitution mattered one damn bit. It's raw power. Period. End of story.

So, NOW. The mass formation psychosis will pivot perfectly to adopt the new narrative that Trump (and by implication anyone who supported him) is guilty of all the vile and evil things unleashed these last 2 years. And it won't matter a damn bit if any of us can point to a thousand videos of them pushing jabs, lockdowns, etc... Because POWER. They have it and we dont. They're willing to lock all of us up, bankrupt us, poison us, kill us if necessary because power is everything to them. And they know we won't do a damn thing except whine in the comments section. Trump will be arrested. He will be the 1984 Goldstein that will be the object of hate. It's channeling hate and fear. Facts and reality be damned.

fauXi et all are what is called "functional psychopaths"

fauxi figured out or with help - his buddy gates? who? - how to consolidate power as an unelected bureaucrat, He controls all American grant funding of research worldwide.

How he got through medical school is because pretty much once you get there they try and get you through. He passed his boards. He was licensed. He is a TERRIVBLE doctor. He started his career as the Chief of the immunological lab before he was appointed head of NIAID. He gets his name on papers and patents he had nothing to with at all. He gets to "King make" and swing $ and FDA approvals for dangerous products. His wife heads up the medical and scientific ethics department in NAID. She gets to direct or even write the drug trialing protocols. When Remdesivir was killing people during its Ebola trialing, and it was pulled. FauXi had it pulled out again for trialing for covid! and when it was again killing people, he had the end point changed mid study and the trial shortened. Who rewrote that protocol? Yeah. She did. Whose product was Remdesivir? Ralph Baric - who trained Shi and who worked with her and others and has an evidence trail 30 years long leading to the released lab-created virus with HIVs in it, TB, Malaria, TSS, Staph A, Strep, prion and amyloidosis promoting sequences and more - much more -optimized to destroy HUMAN immune systems. FauXi managed to get the Patent and Trade Office to patent SARS after 3 tries by paying fees to keep the application super-secret. SARS is supposedly a "natural" virus. But it's not really - by paying the super-secrecy fees FauXi could release information that showed how it was created at that time using the methods and techniques available - including time honored and used today serial passaging through mice. He could do this claiming National Security. So, anyone that wants to use SARS in research must go through NIH/FauXi - whose name is on the patent with NIH et al. - with an NDA. MERS is another lab creation, but it was too lethal. The test was done on an island off Saudi Arabia where camel breeding for competitive racing is done. It killed too many and Obama got very nervous nd had GOF research stopped. It wasn't stopped for long, fauXi arranges a get-around. Everyone who wanted or needed to continue had to apply and explain how any danger would be minimized. Everyone who so applied was waived and continued. Ralph Baric did not want to pause his lab's work while awaiting the waiver, so he moved most of it from UNC Chapel Hill, NC to Wuhan. Most of his students were Chinese - and were as all PhD and post-docs from China are - PLA officers. Another researcher doing very edgy coronavirus splicing work is Peter Daszak of EcoHealth fame, another well-funded via fauXi scientist. All these people knew and had confirmed that HCQ is curative for SARS and when the time came also for SARS2. Dazak was recently found in Russia working in a state defense biolab. Lovely.

And, while in hospice and clearly dying but not ready to give it up yet, they forced him to take a booster and a flu shot at the same time. 6 days later he was dead. If any of them think that we will ever forget, or forgive, they have no idea. The only emotion I have is cold rage.

By Presidential Order he could have made HCQ and Ivermectin available to all Americans.

He could have fired Fouci. He could have said the Federal Government stands with any private business that wishes to stay open.

And, he could have convened Front Line Doctors and told FDA and CDA to implement all the protocols which were showing progress in treating SARS-COV-2, giving each treating physician their choice.

He had dozens of options. Bringing Economists to the microphone to explain the Full Cost of Lockdowns would have been a start!

Telling physicians they were free to treat their patients without threats from State Run Medical Boards, given the "emergency," or, demanding all Fouci's information on Wuhan and Gain-of-Function research, NOW! (While he was in office.)

The President has a lot of tools in his toolbox. He didn't use any, except Fouci, and Warp Speed. Which has now destroyed the lives of millions of Americans. And killed 1.5 million Americans by my estimate.

He fumbled the ball. 100%.

As was too often the case, Trump failed at following his instincts (which I think were, for the most part, correct).

The C-19 has been awfully devious these past 2 1/2 years and, apparently, can be deadly within ten feet. 🙄

When I entered the dentist's office the receptionist immediately whipped out a box of face masks. I said, "no thanks, I'm waiting outside." She was completely flustered.

So when the whole shut down of the state began, I decided to watch one of his first press conferences which he held weekly and then twice a week. I was stunned to see him focus on his tie and his wife's pies. I stared in utter bewilderment - I kid you not. What the actual heck is going on?! He had this "just folks" chatty attitude that I still cannot fathom. But apparently the livestock fall for it. 😬

Ah, the return of masking. I won't need to do it at all. Maybe to go food shopping. The silver lining for having lost a job recently. Economic disaster time here in NorCal, it's rougher than people can imagine. The Gold Rush has ended, and those who sold the shovels are also in trouble. Cannabis is over here, just like that, and literally hundreds of thousands of people are up a effin' creek. Businesses going tits up in a ditch, left and right. How will that play out with the midterms, mandates, etc.? We shall see. Governor Hair Do will likely throw some chump change at us, while enforcing lockdowns. Kicks and strokes, that's how you make people crazy (don't say it, don't say it. I know...California).

This is exactly how the world works in Communist China. Allow me to give an example.

One day it will be in the interest of the CCP to encourage anti-Japanese sentiment (as the example) as the CCP is in tariff negotiations with Toyota or some such company. The CCP will encourage protest and public destruction of Japanese-made cars and air it on their state media. The true Japanese-hating Chinese citizens will find their day of glory and have their voice amplified.

As soon as it is no longer politically useful for the CCP to have this this anti-Japanese sentiment, those same protestors will now be at risk of jail time for the same disorderly behavior that was encouraged the day prior.

As I discuss in this article about Wokeness (https://zhcommenter.substack.com/p/wokeness), there is an active rejection of individual self-awareness taking place in group dynamics like these. People end up only knowing themselves in the context of the group. It is how our Western "Woke" can say on one day "Silence is violence," and on the next chant "Words are violence."

There is no individual principle present, simply adherence to group ideology, which is subject to change from day to day.

The reason the Jews keep the memory of the Holocaust so alive (and this is expensive, inconvenient and uncomfortable to do) is because they KNOW that history can be re-created overnight and wash away all facts and truth. That if we forget, it will easily and absolutely happen again. I don't know of any other event kept alive like this (except perhaps the Armenian Holocaust, but on a much smaller scale and only in large cities).

Reframing the recent past by pouring millions or billions of dollars into it is hard to fight. I think Fauci, Walensky and other knew they would be the sacrificial lambs in the end, but they will be well taken care of and likely forgotten by most. It's a never ending cycle of fraud that relatively few see and have little power over.

Doesn't seem like the Germans learned much based on how they treated dissent and demonizing their fellow citizens.

Demonizing others in Germany was some of the worst in the world.

Expand full comment

You're right. I don't think they learned anything at all and/or the human tendency to vilify groups when in desperate times is just too tempting. They (and Austrians) seem to be the worst at handling this stuff in a rational, non-murderous manner.

It may all be blurring together for me now, but I've been reading of both tyrants and heroes in every geographical region we focus on. It isn't particularly an ethnicity. It's the difference between people who distrust authority, and those who cleave to it.

Expand full comment

Right, of course. There are different people everywhere. But as a culture as a whole, it is fair to say that Germans follow orders, get into lockstep and have indeed, learned nothing despite their own specific history. It's not ethnicity, but it is culture and norm.

Expand full comment

Ethnicity is culture as well as race. As far as following orders goes, did the supposedly liberal Anglo-sphere countries really show any more resistence than the Germans did?

It is possible, as you say, that some cultures/norms tied to ethnicity are more conformist than others. In the current episode, that charge has mostly been directed at east Asian people, who traditionally are supposed to subordinate the individual to the family.

Before around 1870 and the Franco-Prussian war, Germany was generally stereotyped as a land of laid-back, dreamy, Bohemian artists and intellectuals, living in hundreds of different sovereign statelets, who would be very hard to put into lockstep. The exception was Prussia, in the northeast, a Protestant German enclave on the Baltic facing off against neighboring Slavs, Balts, and the German Catholic power of Austria. Prussia's rulers indeed managed to turn their country into a disciplined army camp, if only to survive.

In the nineteenth century, after the defeat of the invasion and occupation by the very militarized power of Napoleonic France, Prussia picked up most of the rest of Germany outside of Austria. Not all Germans appreciated Prussian dominance or Prussian norms, and they developed the negative stereotype of Prussian militarism and lock-steppery. During the World War period of the first half of the twentieth century, Allied propagandists picked up that stereotype and applied it to all Germans.

At the end of the Second World War, Prussia was wiped off the face of the earth, its people either killed or forced to flee west. What remained of Germany and Austria was occupied by the Soviets, Americans, British, and French, and is still occupied by America to this day. To justify this, the occupying powers have invested a great deal in fomenting a black legend against Germans and Germany, which has been very successful. Germans are supposed to feel ashamed of themselves and guilty about their past, while the rest of us play the moral judge over them, clucking condescendingly about them having learned nothing from their history if they ever behave in any way we don't like.

As with Japan, the survival of Germany at the end of World War II was nip and tuck. They were completely defeated and facing enormous rage from the countries they had fought against and the peoples they had suppressed. They could only fall into line behind vassal leaders appointed by their occupiers and accept permanently subservient status and a humiliatingly prejudicial interpretation of what they were about.

Japan has found its way back to moral good standing through time and anime. But Germany is still the naughty child, and carries on its back the black legend that is continually re-imposed upon it by our propagandists. People sometimes complain that Germany does not stand up for itself against America, against NATO, or against vax-covidian mandates. But the moment it did, our propaganda machines, acting on that black legend with which nearly everyone has been prejudiced throughout their lives, would go into overdrive and justify anything up to and including genocide against Germany. Germans, and German leaders, probably understand this quite well. Carthage fought two great wars against Rome, was defeated both times, and then, over fifty years after their second defeat, Roman leaders forced another war on them and wiped out Carthage altogether. Germany has fought two great wars against us; if it comes to a third war, even a purely defensive one, Germany may go the way of Carthage thanks to that relentless black legend, and the Germans know it.

So do Germans follow orders and get into lockstep more than other Europeans, due to their German cultural norms? I don't know, and I don't sense it, but I also don't know Germany well enough to say. The claim that they do sounds like a piece of the black legend. If they do, with respect to the things that American elites demand, that is probably precisely because of the black legend and their reasonable terror of getting into its crosshairs. I've seen videos of crowds of Germans dancing in the street in protest of the mandates, and I know very well locally how lockstep American "liberals" have been, with their unintrospective 100% agreement with absolutely anything their propaganda sources tell them to think, because they don't dare go against their own faction's consensus. I remain unconvinced that the Germans are any more "Prussian" than we are.

Yes I agree completely it shall all have been Trump's fault. And that is certainly in great part true; he hired the worst and kept the worst of what he inherited and he was not possessed of the stones to seek counsel from wiser and more ethical advisors and to fight for a better path.

But the forces arrayed against all of us would have required a titan to prevail against and they don't breed 'em these days--or at least not in the political sphere where we desperately need 'em.

Monstrosities like Leana will do or say anything to remain within the realms of power, and I don't doubt they all have their little piles of blackmail-ready receipts so from neither party will there be the will to clean house.

I was surprised that Biden and the demonrats didn't throw the blame on Trump once the failure of the jabs became apparent. I still don't know why they didn't take that off ramp.

Yes, Trump removed the safeguards (put in place for good reason) and facilitated Warp Speed. He's a businessman, not a scientist or a medical professional. He was trying to solve problems and save people whilst watching all his accomplishments, achieved against incredible headwinds, destroyed by the pandemic response. They played him. They knew exactly which buttons to push. Perhaps he could fend off the attacks, but could he ignore being accused of killing grandmas?

Trump did not want the shut downs. He acceded to Fauci and Birx.

Trump wanted therapeutics, not vaccines. He released the national stockpile of HCQ and that psychopath Rick Bright blocked it. Remember the Surgisphere fraud?

Trump did not mandate the jabs...for anyone. I doubt he would have, but we'll never know.

They will try to lump on the blame on Trump, but we're not going to let them get away with it.

He still cannot accept that the jabs are a failure.

I don't remember Trump mentioning mandates ever. They started jabbing people in late December 2020. He was out of office in less than a month and seriously hampered the entire time by election fraud and Jan6.

Biden and his cronies, Fauci, Walensky/CDC, FDA, etc., own the mandates. The media and social media aided and abetted. They ignored the early reports of injuries and deaths. They ignored the vaxx failure. They own all of it.

Yes Trump is responsible for Warp Speed without which the rest would not have happened.

He is not responsible for the failure to ignore the early signals of injury and death in Jan/Feb 2021.

He is not responsible for Biden's decision to mandate.

We don't know what Trump may have done if he stayed in office 'cause Brandon got those 81 millions votes. Remember?

Your logic, if I can call it that..."three people said the same thing and two of them didn't mean it, so the third probably didn't mean it"...is deeply flawed.

I agree that they own the bully pulpit, but the timeline is hard to ignore. Trump is responsible for removing the guard rails and enabling Warp Speed. He may have been pressuring the drug companies and the FDA to warp faster. But he was out of office when the injuries and deaths became public. He did not ignore the data. He did not suppress the information. He did not enact mandates. Biden and his cronies own this.

All involved must face the American people and our wrath.

And, frankly, any adult who voluntarily took the jabs should sit down and STH up.

The ballot box is utterly compromised, and even if it weren’t, most Americans are STILL stuck in their team blue/team red dichotomy.
