4:20Now PlayingIvanka Trump posted a picture of herself getting the COVID vaccine this week, and she encouraged her supporters to do the same. But instead of inspiring people to take care of themselves and others, it enraged her followers who lashed out in a completely irrational manner over the past. Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

This week, Ivanka Trump posted on her Instagram page, a photo of her getting the COVID 19 vaccine. Good for her, right? That is actually a very good thing. She posted it with this caption said today, I got the shot. I hope that you do too. Thank you, nurse Torres and little blue heart. That's it. I hope you do too. She says like, I'm getting the shot. I'm being responsible. I am taking care of myself and I'm helping to protect others. You would think that such an innocuous little comment there wouldn't really stir up the crazies, but it stirred up the crazies pretty well. And they came out in full force to attack Ivanka and let her know that they are furious, that she would do such a thing. Here are some of the response. This is courtesy of Raul story that kind of cultivated a lot of these, uh, uh, and put them on their site.
So here they are. I'm losing respect for the Trump family. So over this virtue signaling another one said, no, thanks. Don't want to be a lab rat. Hashtag just say, no. Another one says your personal choice, but please don't push on others. All she said was, I hope you do too, right? She didn't say, I demand you go out there and you get this vaccine. You loyal Trump bites. No, she just said, Hey, I'm doing a thing. Uh, I hope you guys do too, because scientifically speaking, that's the best route here. Another one says, no, thanks with a 99% survival rate. I shall pass with bill Gates involved. I will not get one. You know what else has a more than 99% survival rate? Uh, the vaccine you idiot and the COVID survival rate is not actually 99%, by the way. And we're also finding out that COVID can cause longterm, uh, possibly lifelong, uh, lung problems, heart problems, all kinds of problems that are going to persist for the rest of people's lives, possibly.
Um, so yeah. And what that with bill Gates? What the hell does that even mean? Like with the exception of windows Vista, what horrible thing has bill Gates ever done in terms of putting out a product and bill Gates isn't even behind it, you dumb. God bless another person says, hell no. Why would you post this? The other one? Not put, Nope, not putting that in my body. I am so willing to bet that you have put worse in your body. Bummer. I was hoping you were above this kind of virtue signaling. Wow, that's extremely disappointing, but honestly I'm not surprised. Nope. And please stop trying to manipulate us into doing so. It's surprising to see you doing this now. Like the left and Hollywood have been actually, is it though? I mean, look, if uncle wants to be a part of that, a lead, she wants to be a part of the Hollywood elite.
She wants to rub elbows with the stars and all of that, the wealthy, powerful, all those folks. So is that really surprising? If all could did the right thing here and that's probably the only time in life I'm ever going to be able to say that that Ivanka Trump did the right thing. She just hasn't been paying close enough attention to her followers to realize that these people are just crazy, right? Nothing they've said in any of these comments that I have mentioned here has made a single bit of sense. Most of it's not even in complete sentences. Certainly if you were to look at the punctuation, you would, you know, freak out a bit, but no, these people are not rational individuals. These are not people that can be talked to in a reasonable manner. These are people that have been brainwashed. These are people who do not want to live in our reality and it's best to just ignore them and write them off.
There is nothing we can do to reach these individuals. I'm sorry. There's not when they've gone this far down the rabbit hole. No, I truly don't think we can. There are still millions that we can help and we should help. And we should talk to and have these conversations and try to deprogram them. But these people, the truly crazies mentioned in these comments, nah, these people are too far gone and they don't even care that one, the sciences and on their side into basically being a decent human being is something that's a foreign concept to them.
