Former President Trump is facing fierce blowback from his own supporters on his social media platform after taking credit for the vaccines that “saved us” from COVID-19.
Trump posted a “live, play by play” of Joe Biden’s State of the Union speech Thursday night to Truth Social, blasting his remarks on a number of issues and describing the address as “angry” and “polarizing.”
At one point in the speech, Biden boasted that the “vaccines that saved us from COVID are now being used to beat cancer, turning setback into comeback.”

Trump responded to Biden’s remarks on Truth Social.
“’The Pandemic no longer controls our lives. The Vaccines that saved us from COVID are now being used to help beat Cancer – Turning setback into comeback!’” Trump wrote, quoting Biden. “YOU’RE WELCOME, JOE, NINE MONTH APPROVAL TIME VS. 12 YEARS THAT IT WOULD HAVE TAKEN YOU!”
The post was considered problematic for several reasons.
Since the COVID mRNA shots were rolled out, western nations have been dramatic increases in myocarditis, blood clots, neurological disorders, and many other previously rare ailments.
Cancer rates, alarmingly, have also risen exponentially and researchers think they have discovered why.
Last April, Microbiologist Kevin McKernan, a former researcher for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Human Genome Project, discovered the presence of DNA contaminants in the products, which can affect unintended parts of the body and lead cancer, including mesotheliomas, lymphomas and cancers of the brain and bone.
Many of Trump’s own supporters are very aware of these links between the mRNA jabs and the increase in excess deaths in the United States and don’t believe that “Operation Warp Speed” is anything to brag about.
Most of these commenters indicated that they still support the former president, but voiced dismay that he continues to promote the COVID jabs.
“Mr. President….Please stop promoting these vaccines. They are killing and injuring 1000s of us,” one follower wrote on Truth Social. “I fully believe they are causing the uptick in cancers. I fully support you on everything except vaccines! With all due respect… it’s a hard NO for me sir!”
“I stand with you on most things but DISAGREE COMPLETELY ON THIS! The #DeathJab MURDERED MY FATHER AND 20+ of my friends!” another supporter wrote.
“Sir, please drop the vax. There is more evil and ill wrapped around the vax. The bad actors behind it must be held to account. I believe you were fooled and have not seen nor understand what has been done,” a commenter wrote respectfully.
“I love and support you on most issues, but I strongly disagree on this one. The covid vaccines are NOT safe, Mr. President. Please do more research!” one woman advised.
Some Truth Social users were not as polite.
“Was your account hacked?! You’ve got to be kidding me! I personally know too many people with turbo cancer bc of the jabs! 😡😡😡😡” said one commenter.
“I lost my Stepmother and uncle (big brother to me) to the jab last year. Never again will I take any jabs from my doctors. They know I consider them murders for still offering them. Trump better STFU,” wrote another user.
Some comments were short and to the point.
“No vaccine talk! The unvaccinated are better off,” one person wrote.
“WAKE UP, MR. PRESIDENT!!” another simply said.

Trump stopped bragging about the COVID shots at his rallies in 2022 after he was repeatedly booed by his own supporters.
On X, lawyer Viva Frei, a Canadian Trump supporter, said the blowback against the former president is justified.
“Trump is getting raked for this Truth post. And rightly so,” he wrote.
Trump is still trying to tout as a success a shot that has injured or killed countless people. It is not just a politically damaging position to take – it is becoming increasingly obvious that the “success” of the jab is arguable at best.
The jab will go down in history as an abject disaster.
Trump needs to read Brooke Jackson’s whistleblower complaint.
He needs to understand that Fauci lied to him. And to us.
He needs to understand that Pfizer lied to him. And to us.
He needs to understand that Moderna lied to him. And to us.
He needs to understand that “operation warp speed” was co-opted from its initial purpose, and weaponized into an excuse to mass vaccinate even those that did not need any such vaccine in the first place.
He needs to understand that the data was falsified. The risks were concealed. And the manufactured/delivered product was not what was approved in any event.
He then needs to publicly admit this, and vow to go after those responsible. Those who lied to him and to us. Those who are responsible for the irreparable harm that so many people suffered.
Otherwise, continuing to take pride in this experimental shot will continue to cause him potentially critical political damage in general, and in particular among those whose support he desperately needs, and those who desperately want to support him.
In my humble opinion.
Respectfully submitted.
Musician and vaccine critic FiveTimesAugust also responded to the dustup on X, Friday.
“You don’t have to get mad at those holding Trump accountable for the COVID shot,” he wrote.
He’s had plenty of opportunities to say it was a terrible mistake. Not only has he not done that, he’s doubled down on his “accomplishment” every single time. It’s okay to “boo” him on that. Either nobody on his team has told him the truth or he’s intentionally ignoring it. Either way that’s very bad. And to look past it, to not hold your leaders accountable for their mistakes, is EXACTLY why our country is in the position it’s in now. One way or another the tragedy of what’s happened is going to catch up to him and he’s going to have to face it. It just is what it is.
Independent Presidential candidate Robert Kennedy Jr. commented on X that it is clear that Trump “hasn’t learned from his COVID era mistakes,” and said that he looks forward to debating him and Biden in September.
Donald Trump clearly hasn't learned from his Covid era mistakes. He fails to recognize how ineffective his warp speed vaccine is as the ninth shot is being recommended to seniors. Even more troubling is the documented harm being caused by the shot to so many innocent children and… pic.twitter.com/XiqwxuAxRO
