The liberal media has done its best lately to paint Republicans anti-science and anti-vaccine monsters who are selfishly letting COVID-19 run rampant. Democrats have claimed that it must be Trump supporters that are still hesitant to get the vaccine for a virus that has an overwhelming survivability rate however, that’s just not true.
According to Townhall:
And to feed the moral superiority complex of liberal America and coastal snobs, they peddle a fake narrative about how vaccine hesitancy is only with Republicans and maybe the religious. Remember, liberals are learned, people. They don’t believe in God. They’re smarter. Yeah, and then Kaiser dropped this nuke, which surprisingly CNN covered [emphasis mine]
A lot of attention has been spent on Republicans being the problem, leading to calls for former President Donald Trump to address the group.
A look at the data reveals that the vaccine hesitant group, however, are not big Trump lovers. They’re actually likely not to be Republican. Instead, many of them are people who are detached from the political process and didn’t vote for either major candidate in 2020.
The most recent Kaiser poll helps illustrate that the vaccine hesitant group doesn’t really lean Republican. Just 20% of the group called themselves Republican with an additional 19% being independents who leaned Republican. The clear majority (61%) were not Republicans (41% said they were Democrats or Democratic leaning independents and 20% were either pure independents or undesignated).

Let’s not forget the many Democrats who sparked vaccinate hesitancy while Trump was in office and he was touting the success of Operation Warp Speed.
Perhaps the most well-known anti-vaccine voice on this was @KamalaHarris, who kicked up a firestorm when she suggested she wouldn’t trust or take a vaccine coming out of the Trump Administration. pic.twitter.com/WL1CTiPK9G

But she wasn’t alone.
Where bad and dangerous coronavirus ideas go, @NYGovCuomo is never far behind. By now you’ve surely heard of his comments that it’s “bad news” that we got a vaccine during the Trump Admin. Just a vile comment. pic.twitter.com/qw1pLHwkAU

You may be familiar with one @JoeBiden, who shared a similar perspective as his running mate.
Just look at that @nytimes headline (which is sure to go down the memoryhole eventually) and tell me that perspective is fine and dandy. pic.twitter.com/LiTXxPTfsW

The jig is up, it’s time for the liberal media to stop trying to turn Americans on their own neighbors over their personal choice whether to receive the vaccine or not. Will the liberal media stop peddling the incessant lies? Probably not.
