My name is Joseph Biden and I am here to vote. If you ask me for ID you are a racist, like Corn Pop.
And what has mass vaccination of low risk individuals accomplished? Absolutely nothing...except more cases than ever, more resistant strains than ever, and making the pharma companies who donate to politicians richer. Also in the VAERS system, more adverse events and deaths have been reported related to COVID-19 vaccinations over the past year than EVERY other vaccine combine over the past decade. All the government and pharma companies want is people to stay scared, hand over their money, and keep cashing in on COVID.
Thank you, President Trump!
