I honestly believe, initially at least, Trump although a "business" genius, was an idiot scientifically. He trusted people based on "reputation" . He had a sincere desire to get things done. They took advantage of his mega-egomaniac traits "You'll be the first to make a vaccine happen so fast" , he knew COVID would be used against him in the election, and went with it. He was told the liability release would "speeded things up". He should have realized then, there should ALWAYS be liability on part of pharmaceutical agents, because they have proven they can't be trusted.
My problem now is, he can't claim ignorance any longer. You can't tell me, esp. with Don Jr. so up on "conspiracy" theories, that he doesn't know what's going on.He doesn't know the problem with the VAERS collection data starting 14 days post second vaccination? The real morbidity and mortality numbers? The success of actual, readily available and dirt cheap treatments making emergency use authorization invalid? If he really wanted to make a change, he would say, Hey - look how India and Japan "cured" COVID...but he is not. Which is very, very disturbing.
