Ivanka Trump’s Vaccine Selfies Continue to Backfire…and Backfire Hard

By

QAnon nutters went bazinga over Ivanka Trump receiving her first coronavirus vaccine. Now she’s received her second vaccination and as noted by Vanity Fair’s Bess Levin, the QAnoniacs on Twitter still have plenty to say.

Of course, Ivanka announced her news on social media, in a typically chirpy tweet:

“This afternoon I’ve gratefully received my second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.”

“Getting fully vaccinated is the best way to end this pandemic and protect ourselves and one another,” she added.

And lo, the commenting began:

” Being a test subject is not my idea of wisdom…. Sad that you and others would condone this…. Can’t wait for Americans to wake up!” wrote one Twitter user in response to Ivanka’s tweet.

Another wrote:

“Sad and regrettable that you promotes [sic] an EXPERIMENTAL substance disguised as a ‘vaccine’ that does not ‘Vaccinate.”

Another responded ” “Grateful until you get sick from it.”

Another seeming conspiracy theorist advised Ivanka on her mental state:

“You are crazy. Vaccine is poison.”

It’s good that she’s encouraging people to get the vaccine but her father is the biggest reason we’re dealing with this, to begin with. Ex-president Donald Trump spread lies about the pandemic, obfuscated, and suggested weird ways to fight the virus (bleach or hydroxychloroquine, anyone?). According to the CDC, more than 32 million cases of the virus have been reported in the U.S., and 577,041 Americans have died. But the most tragic fact is that the majority of these deaths occurred (at least 400,000) occurred within the last year or so of his presidency,

If Trump had listened to science, how many more Americans would have been saved?
