What about when the leader of the Government flat out knowingly lies to everyone about the vaccine. As in…Dude, it is not unusual for governments and militaries to respond to public health threats, like highly communicable diseases during epidemics. They have the responsibility and even the duty to take reasonable actions. Was George Washington a dictator for requiring his soldiers to be vaccinated against smallpox, yes or no? I think not.
You may think you look smart by defining his assertion as a misstatement (it was a flat out well planned lie) but it really doesn’t when you are ignoring reality in order to maintain your allegiance.Reply to Vols Inc: He should have said that you are unlikely to get a life threatening case of Covid if you are vaccinated. The data strongly supports that. The reality is the Covid vaccinations are not 100% effective, well publicized information. The probability of getting the disease and the intensity of the disease depends on risk factors and exposure to it. You might think that posting some misstatement of fact makes you look smart, but it really doesn't when you are ignoring salient information.

The Dims, FBI, DOJ and their media darlings have been trying to take him down for years.I love how you want to believe that Donald Trump is a 4D chess player. Trump has no such intellectual depth. He really is this simple-minded and corrupt. He makes the perfect "useful idiot."
I certainly do not think I look smart making an excuse for that dumb statement. My point is that there's ample information in public domain to put the statement into proper context. Biden should not have spoken those words, but you know what? He and others have said plenty of things that are accurate, so anybody with a brain should know the misstatement for it is. You look like a small man who takes any cheap shot that comes along.
Oh ok. Thanks for putting me in my place. Moving forward I’ll spend hours investigating and dissecting someone’s words rather than assuming someone means what they said.

George Washington ordered his men to take a vaccination against smallpox. You tryna call him a dictator?
I'd rather being doing something else. What he said was obviously wrong. Well planned lie? Nunh uh.

He’s doing something right, maybe he’s smarter than them. Shall we call him “Teflon Don”? Your obsession with him isn’t healthy, I’d advise you to seek help. You probably mention him more everyday than anyone.

You either don't know what constitutes a dictator, or you are trying to bastardize the term, in order to suit your petty name-calling.Dude, in 2022 that's called a dictator. Bruh! Especially when said dictator said it takes 10-12 years for a safe and effective vaccination.

DICTATOR : noun ... an absolute ruler with complete power over a country, who imposes totalitarian beliefs into public policy without a system of checks and balance in place to prevent civil rights abuses and oppression.
In February of 2021, President Joe Biden did impose a mask mandate for travelers using public transit, such as buses, planes, trains and subways ...
Judge Strikes Down Biden Mask Mandate for Planes, Transit
However, as explained in the linked article from WebMD up above, President Biden's mandate was struck down by a federal court in April of 2022. Therefore, a system of checks and balances was demonstrated to be in place, which prevented an abuse of power. Under a true dictatorship, there are no such checks on power.
It comes down to whether or not you want to apply terms correctly ... or misuse terms, such as dictator, because you want to do some ignorant name-calling.
I have said that because the intelligence community of the United States government had described it as being "likely" that the SolarWinds hackers were of Russian origin, then-President Donald Trump had no business publicly siding with Vladimir Putin's denial of Russian involvement. That is especially true since it was done in contradiction to what Trump's own hand-picked Secretary of State and Attorney General had already publicly said!You’ve made a day on the term “likely”
In 2022, “likely” isn’t the term to use in regards to credibility. Sorry, but the government in regards to anything Trump likely exhausted the term in the way you want to believe it.I have said that because the intelligence community of the United States government had described it as being "likely" that the SolarWinds hackers were of Russian origin, then-President Donald Trump had no business publicly siding with Vladimir Putin's denial of Russian involvement.

The issue is a matter of probability. If it was even just 51% "likely" that Russia was responsible for the SolarWinds hack, then the President of the United States had no business rushing to their defense.In 2022, “likely” isn’t the term to use in regards to credibility.

From likely to probability? Your last line showed the lack of the American people trusting the intelligence community.The issue is a matter of probability.

When it comes to the issue of credibility, at the very least, the intelligence community of the United States is more reliable than Vladimir Putin - who truly is a dictator, by the way.
LOL.From likely to probability? Your last line showed the lack of the American people trusting the intelligence community.
If your go to is “at least they are more reliable than Putin”. Then you identified the issue of why you championing “likely” is comical.
Likely doesn’t hold up.LOL.
"Likely" is a degree of probability.
It would mean "more likely than not" that a Russian-based actor had committed the SolarWinds hack. You are slow.
My last line is pointing out how nonsensical your logic is.
It's basically :
"We can't trust our intelligence community (even though they included Trump appointed members in December of 2020) ... So let's trust Vladimir Putin!"
In the same thread in which you have railed against dictators, you think that an American President was correct in taking the word of one (Vladimir Putin) over his own hand-picked Secretary of State? That is ungodly stupid.
