Eventually all the not vaccinated "believers" will get covid and only then will they beg for a vaccination before their loved ones watch them die

Far too many people have died from this virus already. Universities should comply with the federal mandates. Only by being vaccinated can we slow down this pandemic

We cannot stop the spread of COVID-19 without being vaccinated. Vaccine mandates have been around in this country for many years, and as many deaths that have been caused by COVID-19 I don't understand why there's so much animosity towards getting the vaccine to stop these senseless deaths.

750,000 covid deaths in the US, with population of 331,000,000 people. 5,000,000 covid deaths in the world, with population of 7,900,000,000 people. Why would we have four times the death rate in a modern nation with good medical care, than third world countries? Because it is a lie. That's why.

Sensible people use the science and the real data. Liberals use the lie-ence and fake data. Real numbers don't lie.

Freedom of choice, also the vaccines are far less effective than previously thought, they mostly are experimental still and there are side effects. Why mandate free will for choices that can affect our personal bodily future health?

Vaccines save lives! Period!!! I'm vaccinated and yes, I got covid-19. I had a very bad case of it. Had I not git the vaccine, chances are I'd be DEAD! Vaccines don't guarantee you won't get covid. They sure can reduce the symptoms and save your life though.

Injecting a needle without permision is RAPE. Their bodies their choice.

Trump and his goons in every state in every department are running it into the ground acting like it's the best thing ever and it's not. People are suffering now more then his first term or even during Biden term

> "Trump and his goons" Goons? It's 2025. Trump is a lot of things, but comparing he and his team continued success to a childish name, you need better sources of your insults. For example, stop using The Rolling Stone as a primary news source.

Then, you prefer the 9% inflation for 4 straight years, instead of 2.9%. Where did you get your economics degree?

That was during a period of worldwide inflation ... and we were actually doing better than most other advanced countries. Inflation is higher now than when Biden left office.

Compare November 2025 to November 2026 ... roughly same and 2026 figure was held down by the government shutdown. Let's check back at this time next year and you try to explain away the recession.

Inflation is less than 1/3rd of when Biden was in office. Fix your calculator.

Biden tactics were destroying the world's economies.

The U.S. dollar dominates the world economy due to its role as the primary reserve currency, backed by the massive U.S. economy, unmatched financial market liquidity, and historical inertia since the 1944 Bretton Woods system. It facilitates 88% of global exchange transactions, 54% of trade

Incidentally, our previous president has not acquired enough money to build his presidential library, not even enough money for a presidential magazine stand.

Thee truth is hard for some to swallow. Maybe you could find a Biden or Obama clip to watch?

I didn't but have total support for the vast majority of what he has accomplished and is trying to accomplish. The country was harmed greatly by the Democrats, they plundered our wealth, Republicans also played a hand. No more.

Do a little research on how our national debt has grown under republican presidents compared to democrats. Also see how Reagan and "trickle down economics" is what put us on the path to financial ruin while creating the tremendous wealth inequality we see today.

Going back nearly fifty years, when I was in the military, and Carter was the president, the military was starving. As an E-6 with a wife and two children, legally, I qualified for food stamps. Instead, I got a part-time job. Carter, was a far better president than Obama, and Biden. Facts are tough.

You got tired of that with 8 years of Obama and 4 years of Biden. That's over, now.
