American statistician, Nate Silver busted Democrats for pulling off another massive COVID-19 cover-up but this is one no one’s talking about. During the early days of the pandemic, former president Donald Trump launched ‘Operation Warp Speed’ to deliver a vaccine to the American people as quickly as possible.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t a complete success with one vaccine, the Pfizer vax, mysteriously hanging up at the end of 2020. When it finally cleared and was released, Biden was President. Trump tried to cry foul and warned people that it was all by design. According to Silver, Democrats absolutely stole that victory from Trump ahead of the elections to make OWS seem unsuccessful.
“liberal public health elites” pressured Pfizer to delay fast-track approval of its COVID-19 vaccine until after the 2020 presidential election. Essentially denying Trump his win and potentially swaying voters. Just like how they pushed doubt about the vaccines while Trump was in office but pushed them the DAY Biden got in.
The number-crunching data journalist reacted to an article by Politico that cited a House report that claimed the Trump administration sought to expedite approvals for both vaccines and “unproven treatments” for COVID-19.
“‘Trump pushed for vaccine approvals too fast’ is the worst possible critique of the Trump administration’s COVID policy,” Silver, founder of the Disney-owned FiveThirtyEight political news and analysis website, tweeted.
“That probably saved a lot of lives. If anything approval should have been faster.”
In a subsequent tweet, Silver wrote that “liberal public health elites” pushed Pfizer to “change its original protocols” that govern its authorization of vaccines so that the decision would be put off until after Election Day two years ago.
Silver noted that Pfizer’s decision “had the convenient side-effect of delaying any vaccine announcement until after the election” and that the story “deserves more scrutiny.”
Also, the late 2020 push from liberal public health elites that persuaded Pfizer to *change* its original protocols – and had the convenient side-effect of delaying any vaccine announcement until after the election – deserves more scrutiny.https://t.co/1v3ueTNqur

One liberal journalist, Josh Marshall, accused Silver of going ‘full MAGA’ in an angry response back, “You really think “liberal public health elites” in their efforts, right or wrong, to make sure vaccine approval were properly scrutinized were in fact trying to find a backdoor way to get approvals pushed out past election day because those are the terms they think in?”
“I don’t know for sure but yes the implication is that it may have been politically motivated in whole or in part. Especially given the people making the push, who tend to be strong D partisans. It’s a story that deserves more reporting and I’ve done some poking around myself,” he added in a follow-up.

Let’s also not forget that it was Democrats who originally claimed that the vaccine would be unsafe only to turn around and try to force it on Americans. If you recall, the claim was that Trump’s vaccine would kill you.

None of this is new information to Trump supporters but isn’t it interesting how the truth always finds its way back?
