So Trump is not taking major credit for Operation Warp Speed because of the vaccine he's taking credit to Operation Warp Speed because it diverted the authoritarians from perpetually locking us down?
Pretty sure he took credit for both. You know his ego couldn't let that opportunity pass by.

Well he was quite integral to the unprecedented success of Operation Warpspeed. Frankly, our economy likely would have suffered devastation that may not have been recoverable had it not been for that achievement, which IMO should be obvious to serious thinkers was his primary concern.
If your economy implodes then nothing really matters anyway, right? And what integral component must an economy have in spades in order to survive and operate? People participating in it. And nowhere near enough people were confident enough in they and their families’ safety without the reassurances of a vaccine - regardless of what one poster’s beliefs are re: that vaccine. There were much too many Americans who were convinced that without it they would be in great peril should they venture out into society. And the extreme risk of irreversible devastation to the economy was on a very, very short timeline. Hence the need for speed.
**Take note, the above thoughts have zero to do with my own personal opinion of the vaccine, it’s merely a set of observations that reflect what I believe to be an obvious reality of the situation, specifically at the time.

Without Warp Speed, we would still be locked down.
I disagree.
And the quoted comment reads like a ‘Trump is never wrong’ statement.

Any approval or commendation of Trump reads like that to certain people.
For instance, your post: poster makes a comment on this single topic and you apply it to the entirety of his thinking on Trump. That’s illogical and irrational on its face.

FEMA camps is looney tunes as the come.
Agree. Too much tin foil. It invalidates the other real consequences noted in previous posts. You don’t need camps when your digital id and vax card effectively confine you in your home.
