Candace Owens Defends Trump on Vaccines by Claiming He’s Too Old to Do Research


After her interview with Donald Trump created a massive blowback in right-wind and anti-vax circles over his defense of the COVID vaccine, right-wing media personality Candace

Owens urged Trump supporters to go easy on him, implying Trump’s advocacy of vaccines was due to the fact “he is too old to do his own, independent research.”  She further added that Trump “only gets his news from the mainstream media, because people of his age - don't seek information.”

OK, now if I’m understanding all this correctly, what Candace Owens is basically saying is that “Donald Trump is a senile, ignorant, old coot, who really has no idea what the hell he’s talking about - but please make sure you vote for him in 2024!”  Wow, talk about a rock-solid endorsement!  Anyway Candace, now that you’ve explained to us why Trump is so stupid, what’s your excuse? 


That said, I do understand her position on this, which is basically - “why rely on medical professionals, when you have the internet and all those right-wing cable news channels?”  Wonder if anyone’s ever tried to explain to her that reading anti-vax posts on Facebook and Twitter, doesn’t really qualify as “scientific research.”  Call me crazy, but it sure feels strange when people like Donald Trump and Meghan McCain, start sounding like the rational ones.  


Frankly, if I hear another half-wit talk about their “independent research,” I think I’ll start puking up blood.  The fact is, whenever some anti-vaxxer starts telling me about their “independent research,” I always ask them - “Oh really?  And, in which scientific or medical journals have you been publishing your research for peer review?”  Hint: Breitbart and the Daily Caller don’t really count.  


Anyway, nice to hear that Candace Owens, armed with her high school diploma, is ready to lead our nation’s “infectious disease research.”  Let’s hope she can also find some spare time away from that project, to lend a helping hand to the scientists planning future Mars missions.  I’m quite sure there’s a helluva lot of valuable “information” on the internet about that.


That said, it does look as if Candace might be just correct about Trump.  He does come from a generation where most people actually believed the advice they got from medical professionals.  Now, in Trump’s defense, I have to say that while the former president may actually be too old for Candace Owens-style independent research, he’s still plenty young enough - to completely f**k up the world.

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War:  In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.”   You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!”  In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence.  They don’t teach you that in law school.   Now, is it jus...

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo:  Three months after he abandoned the daily virus briefings and attempted to turn the country’s attention to what he described as the “great American comeback,” President Trump took the lectern in the White House briefing room alone on Tuesday, free to say whatever he wanted without any distractions from the usual bunch “sciencey nerds” behind him. And, in a rare moment of candor, Trump reluctantly admitted that the spread of the coronavirus will likely get worse before it gets better, and that people should probably wear masks.  Well said Mr President!  The fact is, most of us are already rather optimistic things will begin to get better - sometime after November 3rd. Ironically, now that Trump is finally admitting the virus is spreading fast and that people should wear masks, you’d think most of those armed militia thugs, whom Trump egged on to to out and “liberate” those Democratic run states from t...

Former Trump National Security Advisor Warns ‘Deep State’ Putting COVID Vaccine in Salad Dressing

Former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, who was fired and then prosecuted for lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia before being ultimately pardoned by Trump, is now sliding further into the QAnon conspiracy world, telling the hosts of an online show dedicated to COVID and election fraud conspiracies - that he has heard the “Deep State” is attempting to “sneak coronavirus vaccine into salad dressing.” Now, I have no idea where Gen. Flynn got this information, but my guess is it was probably a text from Mike Lindell or Rudy Giuliani, alerting him to the “hidden dangers of salad dressing.”  Or, it could have been Nicki Minaj for all I know.  After all, she does have another cousin who has a friend in Timbuktu.  Word on the street has it the “Deep State” will initially start with “Ranch Dressing” to vaccinate the cowboys, then move on to “Russian Dressing,” to get the rest of Trump’s supporters. Anyway, I hate to rain on Gen. Flynn’s conspiracy the...
