Trump just confirmed he got his COVID booster.
Every MAGA rally: “Don’t trust Big Pharma!”
Trump, now: “Two shots, please. Also a flu one.”
It’s almost poetic:
They booed science for four years…
and now their Messiah’s arm is full of Pfizer.

Remember they said they don’t need anything from us? Then why are US States crying for Canadians to come back, travel, why are sales down in many categories, why are companies going bankrupt, we may be small in population to the US, but Canadians put billions in the US economy and we can boycott!!
