@thomaschattwill This is your brain on partisanship

@thomaschattwill People need to talk less in general

@thomaschattwill A better juxtaposition would be if the second tweet shamed Republicans for not getting vaccinated for political reasons.

@thomaschattwill You really don't see the difference in admins and their overall trustworthiness? Or are you just pretending ?

@thomaschattwill How much turnover among personnel at the CDC and FDA does Reid imagine happened between Nov1 and Feb1? She acts like it’s a completely new institution, the old one wiped clean.

@thomaschattwill Don't think this is as bad as you make it out to be. Trump was perhaps the least trust worthy guy to ever occupy the oval office. So one can understand people who were skeptical over anything he had influence over.

@thomaschattwill This feels disingenuous. The common denominator in the Trump era was his ability to scandalize public servants and impose his will through them. e.g. Surgeon General, Director of the CDC. We knew he was trying to rush the vaccine, so skepticism on that front was rational.

@thomaschattwill She's arguably one of the least honorable people in media today

@thomaschattwill What's more incredible are the replies here.

@thomaschattwill These leave out important context. Most of them are from before there was a vaccine (not just FDA approval, before any vaccine was announced ) but Trump was pretending there was. Pretty different from being anti-vax today.

@thomaschattwill @RogueWPA But, obviously get the vaccine, right?

@thomaschattwill @benshapiro Don’t forget that the vaccine approved is not being distributed to the public because there is insufficient availability. (Also, approval would make it vulnerable to liabilities.). The vaccine being distributed currently is still under the EUA without any liability for damage.

@thomaschattwill @benshapiro I am always amazed at how many times people say the exact opposite of what they said previously and act like it was never said.

@thomaschattwill Thomas I’ve been wondering - if Trump had been re-elected - would we have seen an anti-vax reversal to what we see now? It became political before even coming out, and liberal people that I know and love might not have taken the vaccine if Trump had won.
