he’s just playing to his base. his available data shows him that most ppl that will vote for him trust vaccines (when forced to). if you are a trump thump and that makes you uncomfortable it totally should.
Just as a theoretical question, I've wondered if there was a single person who could say, "I was against taking the vaccine, but based on what Donald Trump said I took it and something bad happened."
Maybe there are some, but not many and I've certainly never seen it documented. If that's the case, then it's hard to pin a lot of blame on him. People sure do it anyway, though.
They'd rationalize it differently and jump through hoops to take the blame away from him. It surely happened but I doubt anyone took it explicitly because Trump endorsed it - they'd rather say some bs like "no one knew back then" or "covid was very dangerous and it was a tough call" or "Trump got lied to by Fauci, Gates and the CDC". Anything but blaming it on their dear leader.
Thanks. It's the same psychological mechanism the libtards exhibit towards their big pharma idols even when they and their family suffer serious damage from the poison. It's a perverted Stockholm syndrome kinda thing - easy to criticize when the other side does it but magatards fail the self-awareness litmus test.
