Americans Lose It After Pence Tells Kamala To “Stop Playing Politics With People’s Lives”

Tonight during the vice presidential debate between Kamala Harris and Mike Pence, which thankfully took on a less harsh tone than the previous presidential debate, Pence was asked a question and refused to answer despite pleas from the moderator to do so. He went on to undercut Kamala’s response on vaccines:

“The reality is that we are going to have a vaccine senator, in record time, in unheard-of time, in less than a year. We have five companies in phase three clinical trials  and we’re right now producing tens of millions of doses so the fact that you continue to undermine public confidence in a vaccine if the vaccine emerges during the Trump Administration I think is unconscionable and Senator I just ask you, stop playing politics with people’s lives.”

This notion that the Biden-Harris campaign has undermined a vaccine backed by science is asinine — what they are against, however, is any vaccine that is touted by their (currently infected) opponent Trump and his lackeys.  The Trump administration’s lack of trust in science and experts, and their need to blur the lines of reality that pertain to this virus is what has sounded the alarm of concern for most Americans.  Harris is correct in being hesitant to trust any vaccine that is produced without the backing of scientists and experts.

Pence the continued his argument with a weak attempt to compare the response of the 2009 Swine flu to our current ongoing crisis, which is just not comparable. The American people, however, were not deceived by Pence’s overused tactic and were livid over the idea that he even went there.

Some, however, weren’t surprised but equally annoyed:

People aren’t falling for Pence’s lies and know full well that Trump and Pence are just in desperation mode as their re-election campaign continues to implode.
