What do you want to say with this link? That CBS lied that Harris said that? That Harris lied about her mistrust of Donald Trump and his administration?
She is clearly referring to the potential scenario back last year when Trump could be pushing for a vaccine to be approved and released that did not satisfy scientific medical standards, just to benefit in the election. That stance doesn't fit in a few seconds of sound bite, of course.
- rkk3 5y ago> What do you want to say with this link? That the left was also guilty of politicizing the vaccine & throwing doubting on its safety when it was politically expedient.
- bayesian_horse 5y agoCNN is not "the left". Nor did Kamala Harris throw doubt on an existing and proven vaccine. No vaccine had been approved at that point, whereas Trump was blundering through the pandemic response in search of any way to save his political hide. There was a lot of evidence Trump put pressure on public health officials to downplay the pandemic and put people at more risk than necessary. Trump had already been known to be conman before he was elected. Everything we learned since only put more details on that fact.
- rkk3 5y ago> Nor did Kamala Harris throw doubt on an existing and proven vaccine They did exist, were 6+ months and several stages into trials & were given temporary authorization only 2 months latter. She fomented fear & distrust about the safety of vaccines to score talking points in a debate. Not sure why you think she should get a free pass.
- bayesian_horse 5y agoYou are completely lying. The vaccines weren't approved yet, end of story. Trump admitted in interviews with Bob Woodward that he was lying about the pandemic. What more proof do you need for him to be completely untrustworthy on the topic?
- rkk3 5y ago> You are completely lying About what? > The vaccines weren't approved yet, end of story. They weren't fully approved until about 6 weeks ago. They had gone through several massive trials and government approvals when she implied the vaccines were unsafe a year ago on national television.
