If this happens, I will be laughing at people who try to say Trump didn’t do his job protecting America from COVID.

I hate to be "that guy", the one who makes the first comment on his own meme, but there's too much to unpack here.

1. Yep, that's Rahm Emanuel's brother.
2. Yes, the swamp creatures are returning.
3. Yes, this will be Obama's third term.
4. Yes, they think that other countries are more important than our own citizens, even though it's our infrastructure and processes that created and manufactured the vaccine (the Obama doctrine of "you didn't build that" on a global scale).
5. Makes me wonder, at this point, what the criteria will be for vaccine distribution in the U.S. Will registered Republicans be the last in line?

#4 pretty much bombs your entire argument - the vaccine candidate we currently have was developed between Pfizer and Biontech, in Germany, with no US federal dollars.

You literally didn't build that.

Wrong - unless you don't trust Newsweek & CNBC. https://www.newsweek.com/pfizer-part-operation-warp-speed-alex-azar-distanced-trump-program-1546594

Not to mention that I did say "infrastructure and processes", which is very general, not OWS, which is very specific.

Nice try, go back to your basement. We'll do all the hard work so you can claim victory.

You said: "even though it's our infrastructure and processes that created and manufactured the vaccine"

Sure, you can try and deconstruct it until it's true, but the whole is blatantly false.

Newsweek and CNBC are just repeating what Alex Azar, a lying Trump appointee, was telling them.

He, of course, is attempting to conflate HHS's $1.95B open order for doses of a vaccine with the funding provided to the companies for development - but again, he's a liar and it's to be expected.

Of course, if you read the entire article, you'd know this since it's specifically stated:

"Pfizer said on Monday in a statement seen by Newsweek they did not accept money for research and development from the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority"
