Assumptions are great for pushing your narrative and making you feel good abour yourself. Very Trumplike of you.

Hey, I am headed to the grocery store in a few minutes. Want me to grab you some tampons?

Or perhaps a dose of Pfizer?

I was really worried about my youngest as she is too young to be vaccinated and I knew there were going to be a lot of people there who were at a higher risk of having covid. My cousin and her daughters weren't there as they were all sick at home with covid. I'll count myself fortunate that they had symptoms bad enough that they recognized they had it and stayed home.

I'd say that 90% of the rest of the people I was worried about being around stated that they had already had covid in the last year. Several of them were still fighting serious lung issues and were winded just walking a few dozen feet from the house to the tent outside where we had things set up. Turns out that a few of the family members who wanted to come had long term symptoms bad enough that they didn't risk making the trip.

The number of Trump flags in the local parade down Main Street was the highest number ever. The kid who looked like he was 10 years old on the ATV with a flag bearing a picture of Trump riding on a tank with an assault rifle in his arms was especially absurd. It was an even weirder weekend than I had expected but we had a lot of fun.

I’ll never understand the appeal of the Orange Man to rural, uneducated, poor Americans…

I visited a state park nearby my hometown and was driving through a rural countryside and passed by a dead tree that had red metal letters that read: “TRUMP”. Did I mention they were on a dead tree? A few miles later I passed a 1-car garage painted Orange with a black “01” on the side. Dukes of Hazard fans…

You guys do realize that ridiculing, belittling, and demeaning "those people" is the best possible way to make sure they keep doing the exact opposite of what you want, right? I still contend that Trump would never have been elected in the first place, save Hillary's "basket of deplorables" speech. That motivated the masses to vote whatever was the polar opposite of her views. Same principle at work here.

They aren't talking about forcing people to get vaccinated; just in making it easier to get vaccinated. If it is brought right to your door then there is no other excuse for anyone who wants a vaccination to not get one. Also, having a person there in person to answer any questions might help alleviate concerns someone may have.

The problem isn’t necessarily access to vaccines, it’s the misinformation.

For the conspiracy theorists, it’s prob just fuel for the fire.

I heard the best way to disarm them is to have trusted and familiar medical doctors talk to them about it. But I dunno if the family doctor is the one going door to door.

BS. That's the same victim mentality that Trumpers whine about everyone else having. Plus, I have never ever seen anyone stop being a dumbass simply because no one was pointing out what a dumbass they are any more. It doesn't actually happen so I reject your theory that it is why this happened. There is zero actual evidence to support your claim.
