Why not?
A few robots have so very adamantly bought his coolaid for 5 years, when he offers them a cola, they react with shock.

It's nice how folks talk about Trump supporters as though none are on RF and feel free to say what they want about people who voted a certain way and support a certain candidate.

It was an observation.
Did you miss that I said “few” ?
You did, but the issue here is a wider one. Trump supporters are almost universally condemned on RF to the point that even when there should be a positive story, it's turned into a negative one by people wanting to rag on, as you say, a few Trump supporters, instead of agreeing with Trump.
Good news is boring, I guess.
It's like, was there any point to this little dig?

Thinking it can’t be both is partly what makes you one of them. When the king contradicts himself, his minions become confused. Because they can’t think for themselves and they’re being given contradictory messages about what to think and do. So naturally, they begin to contradict each other. Not because they are thinking for themselves, but because they cannot. This is in the very nature of being a minion.

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
Nice troll thread.
I'd like to add Trump is getting kickback benefits from the pharmaceutical conglomerates.
As far as I am aware, Trump was always pro corona vaccine. He wanted to roll them out by the millions and he did. So I'm not sure what you mean by 'contradicts'.
One of what? Another attempt to insult?
Boy does that describe the right's behavior to a "T".
I have not seen any conservatives on here creating a tsunami of vicious, insulting posts and threads about Biden supporters and liberals.
I agree. Yes, it's true I dislike Donald Trump -- but when he says the right thing, to the people who need to hear it most, I have to acknowledge that he has acted correctly and well.

I don't feel the greatest sense of security or comfort from the way the Original Post was phrased, either. It's something I'm okay with sitting on my hands about, but it's one thing to fire back, as there are a few people on the right, not any of the more frequent posters - who fire the first shot. But this seems more like shots are getting fired first, and by one of my own in terms of Left / Democrats. It's not something I'll say I support. It's just not something I'll get mad about or hold a grudge about.
There are a few shots fired by the right, but they usually focus more on wedge issues, and I don't see you as one of the ones firing them.

People should not “condemn” trump supporters with a broad brush.
I know very many great people who support him.
Many of my relatives, unfortunately.
I see a few trump supporters as robots. Sorry. But remember, just a few.
The majority are not, imo.
I have absolutely no problem having discussions with trump supporters as long as they’re reasonable, but quite a few are not.
And, I am aware there are quite a few unreasonable folks on the other side as well. My mother was a very radical anti trumper before she died last year, and I was unable to communicate with her either.
In fairness he hasn’t done much yet.
Newsweek won't let me read the article.
So....
https://www.cnbc.com/2021/08/22/tru...ter-telling-supporters-to-get-vaccinated.html
Excerpted....
"Some boos rang out from the rally crowd, who were largely maskless."
If just some isolated "boos", it doesn't seem
reasonable to characterize the entire crowd thus.
It is true that it was not the entire crowd booing. I can’t say if it was a majority or minority, but it was clearly enough that you can hear it on the tape and Donny reacted to it.
And remember that not long ago anyone booing at a Trump rally would be beat up and thrown out.
So this is interesting.

It's good that he told them that, regardless of how much contempt I have for him due to other issues. In this specific instance, he was correct and did what should be done.
Also, as has already been mentioned, we don't know how much of the crowd booed him. If any of them agreed with him, they probably wouldn't be as loud about it as those who booed. Remember, there are people who listened to him when he said hydroxychloroquine would work as a COVID medication. I don't see why at least some of his base wouldn't listen to him in this case as well, and that would be good.
It's not just what "MSM" is saying, though; it's what every major health organization around the world has been saying for months. Whether or not the media happen to agree has no bearing on the medical consensus behind recommending vaccines.
He was? I’ve seen all sorts of news articles and social media posts about him being anti vaxx, criticising vaccines and even discouraging this vaccine. I mean I suppose being a politician I’m not terribly surprised if he flip flopped on this. But I remember our media criticising him for his views on vaccines for at least a year or so now

I see it as a gray area with a lot of examples. He got on air on national TV and told people to drink bleach. That was about as grim as it comes. He also did do something to push the vaccines through though, which required Executive action. This was good. On the other hand, I think there would be much less priority on vaccines if he was still in office. I see Biden as the Vaccine President. It seems a main focus for Biden. While Trump's focus was more on religious freedom and the Economy, I think.
