THANKS to your predecessor!!!! YOU did nothing.

Idiot. The current strains are weaker.
Those vaccines were developed when your predecessor was in charge, and they didn't prevent you from getting COVID like you said they would, and nobody really believes you were actually working very much.

Biden was cured by ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine. The biggest cover-up since the 2020 stolen election

Biden’s loathing of Trump is off the charts. But I wonder why? Why does a certain class have such a visceral hatred of Trump? I think it’s because he calls their bluff every step of the way. His business success exposes their hollow careers. His bluntness exposes their passive-aggressiveness. His supposed vulgarity in taste exposes their exact same Philistinism which they try to hide.

When millions, billions of people were infected and developed Covid-19/20/21/22, without non-sterilizing therapeutic treatments... Aside from planned parent/hood, nosocomial infections, and fecal transmission... Cargo cult science with excess present, and probable forward-looking consequences (e.g. mutagenic, immunodeficiency, sterility, mutagenic).

madAsHell বলেছেন...

Is this what the teleprompter told him??

I can't believe some of the petty, nonsense statements coming from Biden, and Harris. The sad part is Biden/Harris appear to be referencing notes while making perfectly inane comments.

Not the way I remember it.

Not that truth was ever a consideration for Joe Biden.

Excuse Moi Pedo Peter, ahem...you're not supposed to be politicizing and one-upping using covid.

That's Birx's and Fauci's job.

Caroline বলেছেন...

The mask if off on Covid. Better health outcomes are due to weaker virulence. Covid doesn’t care if you were vaccinated. Most of the recent cases of vaxxed Covid in my circle had it much worse than I did, un vaxxed. The truth is the vaccine will not keep you from getting infected. It will not keep you from infecting others. There was never a greater lie than “pandemic of the unvaccinated.” I’m telling y’a, there is something lingering and creepy about the symptoms that occur in vaccinated people.

Carol বলেছেন...

Trump couldn't help it of course but it's still a nice flex.

TFG was a weak loser! Lol

WK বলেছেন...

Maybe his predecessor had a team more concerned about keeping him healthy. Biden gets “take 2 paxlovid and call me in the morning”.

Well, he could have been but the fascists in charge prevent it. Of course the virus has evolved but you can't be expected to know that.

You're right. That's exactly what it is. The bigger lie is that the "vaccine" helped him at all. They were developed for the original Alpha variant. They don't do anything against Delta or Omicron.

1) Does Biden even know he's lying? 2) Is this just another attempt to vilify those of us who resisted taking the experimental, ineffective shot...and tell us were in for another season of death? Or, 3) Do Pfizer and Moderna want their $$$ and the mRNA needs to be broadly mandated unnecessarily on America's children?

This President and his administration have no bottom.

Hey Joe, can we talk to your doctor, please? We have a few questions….

What Rollo said. Different disease entirely.

I knew Joe was a moron but he didn’t have to rub it in —or try to treat us like morons. Sad.

Inga বলেছেন...

“Or could be a weaker variant of the virus. Just sayin.”

Biden had BA5 which is more virulent than the other Omicron variants. Delta, which was the predominant variant from last summer reportedly was the most virulent. The Covid vaccine actually was more effective against Delta.

Gusty Winds বলেছেন...

Is Biden trying to accuse Trump of being and "anti-vaxxer"? Trump is pushing the mRNA as one of his great accomplishments. Trump LOVES the "vaccine".

Ron DeSantis on the other hand...knows it's all bullshit.

So even the ‘No mean tweets’ justification for Biden is failing.

Post hoc ergo propter hoc. The difference (which is not as great as Joe's exaggerated retelling implies) could be due to many factors. But y'all knew that.

Jim at বলেছেন...

I am beyond tired of this shit. No one can claim to know if vaccines made a difference because everybody has a different response to covid. Every body. Different.

I know people completely unvaxxed who've had covid with little or no symptoms. I also know people fully vaxxed and boosted who've been flat on their backs for a week with covid.

Just. Stop.

lawyapalooza বলেছেন...

He's not wrong.

Static Ping বলেছেন...

Per usual, the definition of a vaccine has been changed to support the narrative.

I think the COVID shots are generally beneficial for those that need them, but they are oversold. First, they are not vaccines. Vaccines prevent disease. The shots usually provide some protection, but you can still get sick. Second, they have been obsessed upon such as demanding that everyone get them, when only certain groups should be getting them, and they have been used as a cudgel to block all other forms of treatment, many of which have been highly effective when properly used. Third, these vaccines are for the original strain of the thing, so they are not going to be nearly as effective at what we have now.

But then again this is Biden, a man who was always an idiot and a bully, and now is senile.

lawyapalooza বলেছেন...

You cultists are amazing. TFG was in very grave danger. He had to be hospitalized and given oxygen, along with (at the time) experimental treatment-- note: not ivermectin... The denial of literally anything that reflects poorly on him is something to behold.

Marxists are always the best arbiters of who is truthful and who is not.

Mike (MJB Wolf) বলেছেন...

What a dick. He insinuates Trump is anti-vaccine, which is not true. Just like his glory-hogging the credit for getting the vaccine, Biden has to try and puff himself up in comparison to Trump.

C'mon Joe! When Trump was President gas was under $3 here in California, the food supply chains were fine and inflation was at historical lows. Do better.

Gusty Winds বলেছেন...

Last week Biden's physician gave a press conference and said Biden was going well, eating, and then added, "he even showed me his plate"...like you would ask a two year old to do before you applaud and say "oh...you're getting soooo big!!!"

There is probably a little "look, I'm stronger that Trump".

Big difference is when Trump recovered from the Alpha variant so quickly, and stepped out on the balcony of the White House and removed his mask, he sent a signal that COVID could be survived, and we needed to back to our normal lives. The LAST thing Biden and the Democrats want is for us to return to our pre-2020 non-COVID existence. It gives them power and control.

Not only is Biden going after people like me who took zero mRNA shots, he is also going after those that have not participated in the boosters. If you only took one or two doses, according to these idiots you are no longer "fully vaccinated".

We welcome you to the club. Grab a beer.

Danno বলেছেন...

What Rollo and Begley said. Biden's only claim to fame is he served as the co-instigator of the attempted high-tech lynching of a very qualified black Supreme Court nominee. For which the blacks in America should revile him.

Everyone that supports Biden is a stupid piece of shit.

Have fun with your redefinitions of "Recession" you dumb fucks. We all know that Biden fucked the economy up and you are going to get destroyed in November.

Quaestor বলেছেন...

Goddamn is he STUPID. Or, more precisely, Biden's speech writers are goddamn STUPID.

Leland বলেছেন...

For a man that just had cancer before covid; I wouldn't be messing with karma.

Also, Trump was quarantined per NIH guidelines. The helicopter was the easiest way to get him there. Biden put more people at risk. But, it is a Trumpian type comment from Biden, so fair play.

JK Brown বলেছেন...

I'm not sure this was the best video to create for all the video reaction comment sites.

Joe, you got COVID when none but your Democrats consider COVID a bad risk.

Quaestor বলেছেন...

He's not wrong.

You're not right, lawyapalooza. The difference can be many things besides vaccinations. Let's see if you're clever enough to list a few.

I like Biden. Hope he retires at the end of his term.

Mike (MJB Wolf) বলেছেন...

C'mon Cook: As if Trump has ever had the slightest regard for truth!

This is such weak sauce so far into Brandon's reign of terror. A year ago he said everyone agreed the inflation was transitory. That wasn't true. Was it a lie?

Or was it closer to being bluster and fluff, the thing for which Trump was famous, although your ilk prefer the hard edgy definition lie when talking Trump. Definitions are always shifting with your kind. If exaggeration is a lie, then apply it to the current occupant too. If a partial truth is a lie, then apply that to the current occupant. If using superlatives in place of specific numbers is a lie then apply that to the current occupant. That you and most self-professed liberals and progressives claim some special exalted status for Trump's lack of precision is just another lie you tell yourselves.

RoseAnne বলেছেন...

It's Wednesday. He couldn't go to his beach house again until he was healthy.

Now, he can leave on Thursday and spend a long weekend there.

And the press still won't get a chance to speak with his Doctor and ask questions because now he is testing negative.

Win-Win for his team.

Mark বলেছেন...

"Not that truth was ever a consideration for Joe Biden."

Hahahaha! As if Trump has ever had the slightest regard for truth!

That is what is called an admission that Biden has always been a pathological liar.

Amadeus 48 বলেছেন...

As is well known, the evolutionary cycle of respiratory viruses is that variants become more contagious and less deadly over time. Joe caught COVID that was later in the cycle and therefore less deadly. He is a beneficiary of viral evolution.

Also, the vaccines were developed under Trump's Operation Warpspeed. Did Joe thank Trump? No. That would be too classy for Joe.

Temujin বলেছেন...

First of all, when Trump got Covid, it was still COVID. It was killing people. Biden's covid is more annoying than dangerous, and I'm not sure if it's Biden that's annoying or hearing about the virus, but...

On the last week of the campaign before the election, Trump was jetting across the country all day and night, doing multiple campaign rallies in far away states before tens of thousands and thousands more who could not get in, millions more on TV. Doing 3+ hours at each event without the teleprompter, driving home the point that his voters were more enthusiastically engaged by far, his work had not been dismissed by the nation, and that millions were hoping for more.

Biden was put in his basement on that last week, not doing any campaigning, offering a few staged, scripted murmurs some mornings before his caregivers put a 'lid' on his appearances, typically before 10am, lest he say something from his own mind. The week prior, 50 or so people showed up for one of his final 'rallies', showing the world just how enthusiastically the Democrats felt about their candidate.

Yeah. I still wonder about those election sites shutting down around 11pm that night. I still can't shake the feeling that this entire thing was scripted, right down to the final totals. Sorry. I got off track.

The problem with Joe Biden politically is that he's an ahole. Nobody likes him. Democrats don't even like him.

Nobody likes an ahole. Especially one like him who always thinks he's right when he isn't. You all have that friend who always thinks he's right, and he's never right, and he's just so full of himself he's unbearable at parties.

That's Joe Biden. Nobody invites Joe Biden to a party.

Original Mike বলেছেন...

"Because they kept confidential the degree to which Trump was ill with COVID."

I'm sorry Robert, but the New York Times has less than zero credibility when it comes to reporting on Trump.

I'm assuming you know, just to pick one example, that Russian Collusion was a pack of Hillary-generated, FBI-enabled lies. It's hard to imagine that the NYT didn't know that early on, yet they reported otherwise for years. There is no reason to accept their word on the degree of Trump's bout of Covid.

Deeply stupid or dishonest: Trump is obese, strain is different, treatment protocols are better (https://maximumtruth.substack.com/p/how-to-get-paxlovid-quickly - Paxlovid).
However, 'vaccinations' in my personal experience ("we all got the same covid strain, who is suffering more") moderate symptoms perhaps by half - no more.
The more interesting thing to say about the 'vaccinations' is that nearly everyone in Biden's circle had them and also got covid.

Several of these democraticals at Althouse, gadfly, Inga and victoria from Pasadena, have gone so far as to call it perfectly "normal".

So, yeah. You like Biden.

Yancey Ward বলেছেন...

Trump wasn't that sick with COVID either- I don't give a fuck what The NYTimes tries to claim otherwise, Cook. The proof I am right is how quickly Trump was back at the White House and on the campaign trail. The trip to Walter Reed was an overreaction (or, maybe, an attempt to derail his campaign by less than loyal medical staff), but an understandable one given how much more deadly the alpha strain was versus those of today.

Biden is welcome to play it this way since Trump was mocking him the other day with tongue in cheek. It is fair play.

However Biden, or whoever wrote what was on the teleprompter, has set themselves up in a way that his staff is surely too stupid to understand. If Biden gets sick a second time with COVID, a real possibility and likely to happen at some point in the next 6 months, today's video will be come back to haunt his staff and the Democrats, and Trump will be ready to pounce.

Interesting textual cut by CSPAN and Althouse, the sentence continues, “but also three new tools…”

It’s so un-Trump-like for Biden to credit the vaccines - probably why Althouse blogged this. Both the vaccines and the new tools are the product of Bug Pharma. Can we knock off the blood feud long enough to give Big Pharma a round of applause? Capitalism enhanced by injections of public money from both Presidents.

What Yancey Ward said. Cookie, Inga, Readering, and Left Bank all sound like COVID-cure-truthers trying to insinuate, as Biden did, that Trump was deathly ill when he spent less than three days in Walter Reed and resumed fairly normal activities (over the protests of various doctors) by 11 October, ten days after getting back positive test results on 1 October.

NPR's Trump COVID timeline

And Inga, that word salad you dumped out regarding COVID variants is ridiculous. Omicron, the dominant strain in the US since late 2021 and likely the one Biden got, is generally described as more infectious but far less deadly per case than either the Alpha or Delta variants.

“And Inga, that word salad you dumped out regarding COVID variants is ridiculous. Omicron, the dominant strain in the US since late 2021 and likely the one Biden got, is generally described as more infectious but far less deadly per case than either the Alpha or Delta variants.”

BA5 IS a variant of Omicron, sheesh you people are dumb. I said that BA5 was more virulent than the original Omicron. I said that Delta which was not an Omicron variant was the most virulent. How much clearer can I make it for you?
