The buck always stops on the President's desk. Trump actually did realize he was being misled by the summer of 2020 and to his credit made a change in advisors, bringing in Atlas and Alexander who provided him with good advice.

But the problem for and with Trump has been with these Covid injections. By the end of January 2021, warning signs of adverse events already were flashing and the pre-eminent Dr Peter McCullough first called for a stop to the program. Since then the evidence has continued to grow that these drugs were not safe nor effective for anyone.

It is times like these that real leaders show their mettle and stand up for their people. Not qualify who should or shouldn't do something, but rather categorically state that a program has proved itself unworthy of continuation so as to protect the people of a nation. Even if it means having to admit the leader's prior evaluation was wrong. Especially in matters of life and death, which we are facing now with these injections.

As I wrote above, should this virus continue on its present evolving path, and there is no reason to believe it won't, Trump stands to lose far more politically than he stands to gain by stubbornly continuing to advocate their use so he can say he was the force behind their creation.

For the good of the nation and his own political designs, he needs to renounce his advocacy of these shots now based on the evidence that has accumulated that the shots are causing more harm than good.

And, again, the responsibility---the buck---actually stops with those in charge of the mitigation, those who did wrong while explicitly lying to Trump, and the public *The buck stops here* is a pretty handy catch-all for Never Trump splitter strategizing. By the end of January 2020, Trump was not in the WH.

If a person is intelligent enough to be President of the US then they certainly can understand the great harm these injections are doing to the people of the US and the world. It's well past time for the real leaders to take a stand, as in are you for life or against it ? Because that's what this issue now comes down to...advocate for the shots and promote a holocaust, or rally enough opposition to them that people realize the danger the shots present. This is no time to pass the buck of societal responsibility that is rightfully expected from political leaders. Trump should and will be judged on whether he led millions of his countrypeople in his nation to safety or to the morgue. Now is the time for him to make that choice before its too late for him and the millions who stand to perish if this failed drug produces a highly virulent variant.

Very good, reincarnate the 2016 evangelicals' splitter strategy that aimed to take Trump down via tortured logical fallacies. Sigh. Are you an adult? Yes? Blame yourself and do not outsource your thinking and action plans to those you feel should be oracles to tell you what to do. Please cite the *mandates* under Trump that *forced* millions into submitting?

You are making excuses because you want Trump to be President and cannot fathom the idea that perhaps Trump acts for the benefit of his ego instead of the benefit of the people he wants to lead. And what I am telling you is that he will never get to be President again unless he divorces himself from both his ego and these shots. Because by the time the election of 2024 comes around, these shots will have caused so much death and disability that anyone who supported them will have no future in government. Ending his support for the shots now can give him a plausible waiver from criticism, but the longer he waits to defend the people against these poisons, the less of a chance he will have to gain forgiveness.

Iam not an anti-Trump person, I voted for him twice and I believe that if th eelectronic voting systems in the States that decided the 2020 election were examined, he would have been rightfiully declared the winner of that election.

But my political acumen is founded not in emotion but reason, and yours should be as well. And political reason tells me that any candidate who supported these shots will have a difficult time in politics for the next two years and beyond.

Who is lying to Trump now? What's his excuse for still promoting the jab? The horse has left the barn and Trump still refuses to acknowledge it. KIDS ARE DYING.

Seriously? You think that people mindlessly defer to Trump as a prophetic oracle? There is a thing called due diligence, that relies on individuals assessing and making decisions based on what they can extract from what they learn. Kids are dying because their parents were stupid or cowardly or foolishly needing to conform to consensus. Unless you believe that Trump cooked up the vaccine in his basement, this argument is utterly nonsensical. You will recall that he---many times---suggested alterantive treatments, for which he was vilified and mocked. He also said that it was a matter of choice. It was the Biden regime that forced the *mandates*. Let's get the facts straight before holding Trump accountable for the tyrannical, illegal imposition of *mandates* that were Biden's. BTW, DeSantis shared Trump's stance for a very long time, until he stuck his finger in the wind and saw that it was politically popular to oppose the jab...after having promoted it.

You really want to go down memory lane about Trump's mishandling of the government's response to Covid ? Good, let's do that...

It was Trump's FDA that refused to recommend the use of Hydroxy-Chloroquine in mid-2020 when Dr. Zalenko and others first informed the President that they had found exceptional success in curing their patients of Covid infection. Because of the unwillingness of the FDA to recommend early treatment protocols with HCQ and Ivermectin in the middle of 2020, it has been estimated by the esteemed epidemiologist Dr. Peter McCullough that hundreds of thousands of people who since died from Covid could have been saved. Because State Departments of Health follow FDA guidance, and then enforce those decisions on hospitals and doctors.

Trump could have unilaterally replaced his head of FDA with a recess appointment during the summer of 2020 with an administrator who would have recommended the early treatment protocols with the alternative medicines, and that appointment would have lasted through2020. But Trump refused to make such an appointment, opting instead to hold out for a vaccine.

Trump had a second opportunity to save lives from the adverse events of the new vaccines in January 2021, prior to his leaving office. Prominent epidemiologists publicly were stating that in just one month since the vaccines were being distributed, the CDC's Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System was showing these new drugs were causing the amount of Adverse Events that had caused the government to shut down prior vaccine programs.

Trump ignored these findings, and continually has endorsed use of these poisonous drugs that have resulted in three times more Americans dying within a month of injection than all vaccines ever brought to market in the last 30 years COMBINED.

Your argument that the American people are to blame for the injuries they and their families are suffering from as a result of these injections is illogical and ridiculous.

Based on your illogic, there should be normal practice laws to regulate the conduct of doctor, as you think people should be responsible for their own medical choices regardless of the advice they receive. If that were the case, why have doctors at all,or health agencies ? Is medicine really that simple and understandable that everyone can understand it ? I'd say not.

Which is why people follow the advice of their doctors who follow the advice of their government medical authorities, who serve in the Executive branch of government. Meaning that Presidents are ultimately responsible for the quality of medical information their administrations offer to guide the public.

Trump has continually shown he is not up to the task of ensuring the American people receive quality information regarding how to protect themselves from this Covid menace. He bears that responsibility as a leader, and he continually has failed at the task. The spoiled fruit of his unacceptable advice and endorsement is helping to fill cemeteries, and will continue to do so at an accelerating pace between now and the election of 2024.

The window is closing quickly for Trump to renounce his continued support for these injections. More and more people are waking up to the fact that these shots are anything but safe and effective, and as more people collapse on football fields or die suddenly for no apparent reason, there will be a critical mass of people who recognize that its the injections that are causing the injuries and death.

If Trump wants to be President again, he needs to admit and apologize now for his miscalculation, and lead the effort to stop their distribution. Anything less will result in his retirement from potential political office.
