You would need to uncritically agree with everything he has heard from his youtube "research."
No Trump actually said a number of things were being looked into and suggested they showed promise.
Just because your paranoid it doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.
And they are. They've tried.

Biden, Harris distrusted Trump, not COVID-19 vaccines
President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have been pushing Americans to get inoculated against COVID-19. But
www.politifact.com
Kamala Harris says she will be 'first in line' for a coronavirus vaccine if health experts approve it, but 'if Donald Trump tells us we should take it, then I'm not taking it'
Vice President Mike Pence criticized the California senator's remarks during the debate, telling her to "stop playing politics with people's lives."
www.businessinsider.com.au
“If the public-health professionals, if Dr. Fauci, if the doctors tell us that we should take it, I’ll be the first in line to take it — absolutely,” the California senator said during the first and only vice-presidential debate.
“But if Donald Trump tells us we should take it, I’m not taking it.”
....
Trump has consistently pushed for a coronavirus vaccine to be ready before Election Day, though his own health experts — including top infectious-disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci — have signalled that one will likely not be available until next year.
On Tuesday evening, the president, who has tested positive for the coronavirus, blasted Food and Drug Administration chief Stephen Hahn for tightening guidelines for vaccine producers.
Yes, a sewer filled by the bullshit of people who to push their political side chose to try and frame Trump and the vaccines as being unsafe. A sewer filled with the bullshit of people who felt Scientists would let something so unsafe get out there. A sewer filled with the bullshit of people who only ended up helping the Anti-vaccine movement by suggesting it wasn't safe enough for the public because of Trump's actions. A sewer filled with bullshit that even now we see the impact of as people who heard their claims and followed one side but not fully are still sceptical, still concerned and rather than belay those fears people chose to flip from the vaccine wouldn't be safe due to Trump to anyone who doesn't take it is killing people. Switching from pretending to be concerned to score political points to that pretend concern turning to scorn for those who do no follow everything blindly.
Some-one has to remember the bullshit, you're seemingly just angry I keep reminding people of it.
I think you meant you're unless you're admitting to being paranoid yourself.

QFT.
In what way have I done that. I've outright pointed out that trans people don't actually exist in history. But if the conclusion you want to take from that is that the gender politics of history are somehow devoid of "domination", and that historical systems of domination have no bearing on the treatment of trans people in the present, then you've pretty conclusively demonstrated the way in which that argument is inadequate on its own, because it's leading you to a faulty conclusion. History before the emergence of biological science was not a gender-anarchist utopia in which anything went, it involved an enforcement of gender normative behaviour far, far more brutal and uncompromising than anything that exists today.
Also, the concept of trans only exists in counterpart to some imagined point of normativity that, until we gave it a name, was largely deemed unworthy of discussion. The idea of being trans wasn't invented by trans people themselves, it was invented by a medical establishment overwhelmingly concerned with normalizing the "deviant" behaviour of non-conforming people. This was done under the logic of nature, that men and women possessed naturally distinct natures that aligned them towards particular roles, and the idea of nature in this case is one that can be followed back into history far beyond the birth of the biological sciences. Pamphlets were being written in Jacobean England declaring that women were becoming satanic hermaphrodites and society was about to collapse as the divinely ordained natural order that separated men and women was under threat. There are reasons for that that are specific to the time, the repeal of sumptuary laws and rapid urbanization creating a large population of disenfranchised women, but the logic that categorized these things as an offence against nature has a largely continuous history extending all the way to the present day.
As tempting as it may be to fall back on some kind of absolute nominalism and declare that trans people only came into existence with the word trans, it's a supremely arrogant presumption. It assumes that the experience or state of being a trans person could only be intelligible through a single gendered discourse (a discourse that was created in the European medical profession with the purpose of oppressing and eliminating trans people) and that no other discursive environment could possibly contain these experiences, which is blatantly not true. Similar experiences are found literally everywhere in history, and there's nothing inherently wrong with translating those experience, since almost every modern account of a historical phenomenon represents a process of translation.
What do you mean by this?
Firstly, the modern understanding of gender is not based on the work of Money. Money was a doctor who specialized in the treatment of intersexed people, and the greatest theoretical advancement to emerge from his work on intersexed people was about sex. Namely, Money observed that sex did not represent discreet biological categories, as was generally understood at the time, but a conditional alignment of traits, which ultimately included the adoption of gendered behaviour. In this regard, he was largely correct.
Again, I have to point this out every time someone brings up Money, but the one area conservatives seem to shit themselves inside out over him over is the one area where they would actually agree with him. Money believed that gender conforming behaviour was a necessary prerequisite for happiness, and that children should be pressured to adopt normal and clear gendered behaviour, including heterosexuality, and actively discouraged from any kind of gender-nonconformity. This lead him to advocate some extremely abusive treatment aimed at normalizing the gender identities of intersexed children. Money's work also lead to a clear policy of "correcting" the genitals of intersexed children while they were too young to consent, that only ended relatively recently.
Ironically, it's conservatives who are now advocating for the continuation of Money's more controversial work in the form of conversion therapy, active discouragement in the case of trans children, and so forth.
Money never worked with trans people, and would not have been supportive of trans people as he was not supportive of any form of gender non-conforming behaviour. His approach to his intersexed patients was that they were unfortunate victims who needed to be fixed so that they could integrate into society. Almost every awful thing he did can be traced back to that belief that gender conformity was required in order to live a happy or worthwhile life.
I don't know where anyone got this idea that Money created the modern understanding of gender, it's genuinely baffling to me. The modern understanding of gender is not the result of any one person, and if it was it would probably be someone like Simone de Beauvoir who basically had all the fundamentals down in the 1940s.

I am. And it's justified.
It wasn't liberals who doxxed and committed identity theft on me for going in against them on an internet forum, jack. It was your bretheren in the "Trump is Always Right" cult.
And you just double down on your delusions, despite being shown the actual facts you still choose to stick to your lies.
What that at the time they suggested the vaccine wouldn't be safe because of Trump, that is what they said, they were suggesting it would be rushed and unsafe due to Trump. They help the anti-vaxxers massively because the anti-vaxx movement exists on both left and right despite what you may wish to believe.
Or it was trolls who were fucking with everyone because unless they announced they did it I doubt you'd know.
Then again I know it was the "Trump is literally Satan and the Anti-Christ and Hitler re-incarnated" lot who did try to doxx me (and failed) because they tried to gloat about it at the time in responses to me on an internet forum. Hell they followed me across multiple sites doing it.
Show me a cost-benefit analysis that shows lockdowns save more lives. I'm for anything that overall saves lives. It's not my fault "your side" is lacking proof that any of these measures have done anything to save lives.
