The Secret Behind Biden-Trump Lovefest
Divided by ideology but united by the objective
Donald Trump was booed this Sunday again "after revealing in an appearance with former Fox News host Bill O'Reilly that he got a Covid booster shot."
The boos were as loud as it was in Alabama a few months ago when he asked his supporters to get vaccinated. But unlike the last time, Trump did not pivot to the next topic.
He dug in.
He pushed back against the ruckus MAGA base:
"Look, we did something that was historic," Trump told the audience.
"We saved tens of millions of lives worldwide. We, together, all of us — not me, we — we got a vaccine done, three vaccines done, and tremendous therapeutics. This was going to ravage the country far beyond what it is right now. Take credit for it. Take credit for it. … Don't let them take it away. Don't take it away from ourselves.
You're playing right into their hands' when you doubt the vaccine"
Oh, my!
Donald Trump was expecting the boos. And he pushed back. His tone was markedly different. O'Reilly revealed the former President may have made up his mind to chart an alternate path for this base.
