As someone who has extensively worked in the medical field and currently works in research I'm just going to set the facts straight.
On May 30, 2018, President Donald Trump signed S.204, the Trickett Wendler, Frank Mongiello, Jordan McLinn and Matthew Bellina Right to Try Act. Right to Try opens a new pathway for terminally ill patients who have exhausted their government-approved options and can’t get into a clinical trial to access treatments. Although 41 states have passed Right to Try laws, the signing of S.204 makes Right to Try the law of the land, creating a uniform system for terminal patients seeking access to investigational treatments.
this bill was one of the greatest healthcare successes in modern history. In layman's terms it gives choice back to the patient on what care they can receive. This movement, while massively good, has a downside, we don't know if the treatment will work. That was not the point however, as the right of the individual to seek care was tantamount.
I'll now say something controversial here because well the anti-Trump circle jerk is blatant on the topic. Operation Warpspeed was a massive success. This is due to a multitude of factors including the fact that we were operating on limited information and massive amounts of global disinformation because of China. Now for those who were too shortsighted to remember 2 years ago, you werent even allowed to posit the notion that the virus was lab-made without immediate unpersoning. Doctors as prominent as Peter McCullough were unpersoned for simply making a therapeutic treatment for Covid.
Heres the rub for you anti-Trumpers, you judge in hindsight that 1. trump was somehow a medical expert. 2. that the vaccines were always bad and trump somehow knew, and 3. that trump was somehow god and could shut down the globalist healthcare agencies.
Heres the reality:
- Operation Warpspeed was developed because we were told the world was ending. Trump was willing to fund a massive loss and hinge his career on an attempt to help Americans in what was sold as an apocalyptic crisis.
- The FDA, NIH, WHO, JAMA, NEJM and CDC provably and repeatedly lied to both Trump and the public including publishing fraudulent studies. Blaming Trump for this in hindsight is again asking him to be god.
- Trump granted the states rights to determine their own Covid policy, this was frankly the best possible option because again he is not god and was constrained by congress.
- The right to try movement is what led to the McCollough treatment (Joe Rogan's "Kitchen Sink").
- If Trump fired Fauci and Birx, he would have cut the head off the hydra while covering himself in the poisoned blood. Simply put, they had/have to much political clout with the left, and the immediate celebritization of Fauci was to make firing him a poison pill.
Is Trump perfect? No. Would any president have done better in that timeframe? who knows. Could it have been much, much worse? It did, I left hospital care because Biden taking over cemented the regression of medical progress in exchange for political profit. These hindsight attacks are frankly childish and those who keep pushing them should be held to the same standard as they hold Trump.
It produced what is essentially a placebo, with adverse effects.
Sure, it was a "massive success" at bypassing red tape, it just didn't produce anything worthwhile, meaning that now most people will point to it to justify the red tape.
So in essence, it's the opposite : it's an abject failure that resulted in right violations through vaccine passport and digital id implementation and produced no benefit to society because its product is both ineffective and unsafe and also set back the cause of bureaucratic reduction.
Look, this isn't a knock on Trump. He tried. The pharmas failed, yet again. They went for max profit and got signed off on immunity. Something he should have seen coming.
that wasn't the purpose of warpspeed though, the purpose was again follow the principals of right to try. Trump wasnt even in office for the jab mandates... the vax mandates were fauci/biden
That's hardly a valid defense. I wanted to assemble a ceiling fan, instructions unclear, got dick stuck in light bulb socket.
The initial purpose is irrelevant. It's the result that counts when assigning failure or success. To claim success because "hey, our purpose was good" is not the argument you think it is.
No, now you're just rewriting history. The purpose of Operation Warp Speed was delivering a vaccine in record time by reducing the bureaucratic barriers.
It failed to deliver a vaccine. IE : it's an abject failure.
No one has ever made an effective coronavirus vaccine in human history. Again youre running off the extraordinary demand that humans be god. Im not rewriting history you are, the simple fact is that no one would have given a fuck about the vaccine if biden and fauci didnt mandate it, it would have been an optional therapeutic that was already prepurchased and higher demanded globally. You are again blaming Trump because he sought to obtain what was sold to everyone as the cure for the covid and then turned out to be fraudulent. Did trump have anymore access to the data than anyone else at the time? the cognitive dissonance in you is frankly hilarious.
You just disproved your entire premise that OWS was a success then. Guess we're done. I notice though you wrote more. sigh.
I made no such demand. Trump tried. From your own admission, it was never done before. Guess what : Trump didn't get it done either. He failed.
You're the only one here that seems to have this notion that Trump can't fail and thus you're lashing out at anyone saying he did, when the reality and facts are plain as day : he did fail.
"I know you are, but what am I" is really your hot take ?
Here, facts :

That's their goal. Not some BS about "Right to try". They are clear their goal was delivering an effective vaccine. They didn't. It doesn't work.
Thus they cannot have succeeded. You claiming their purpose was something else contradicts the available information. So you are in fact rewriting history. We have the documents to prove it.
