I wonder if you-know-who was even asked to participate, out of courtesy if nothing else.

Shame that we didn’t get to see Carter’s face. Hope he’s doing well.

We did! At the very end of the PSA:

Is that real?

He’s such a petty man. The extreme opposite of good.

Just a fundamentally terrible human being, incapable of thinking of anyone other than himself.

Yes, the statement is real. Trump is a POS.

Anyways, let's not make this thread about him. Let's focus on Presidents 39 & 42-44.

That reminds me of Biden's town hall where he states that he has spoken to every living former President "with one exception" since taking office, and didn't say who the "one exception" was but leaving it so laughably blatantly obvious.

Trump’s statement is actually not bad in that it’s still a (roundabout) endorsement of the vaccine...

The sad thing is, a lot of people (a few of them here) will think Trump’s statement shows leadership or something.

I mean he's still an awful awful President and person, but acting like that somehow exonerates Trump and modern day Republicans like jfern and Greenwaldian types seem to think is...quite bizarre.

Did the Obama's get it?  They're not 65 or in any preferred class are they?  At least First Lady Trophy wife was in office when she got it and Orange man was too (plus he's old enough).

Yes, see 0:48 in the PSA. And they're currently residents of DC, which is now vaccinating residents thereof under 65 with qualifying medical conditions, so for all we know, they've already qualified via that route (at the very least, he's a former smoker, which arguably does put him in a risk group, but barring a massive HIPAA violation on the part of their physician, we'll never know for sure), which is actually implied by the fact that Carter's vaccine card (which is visible at the end of the PSA & in the hitherto shared screenshot thereof) shows that he was vaccinated in late Dec. but this video wasn't released 'til mid Mar., meaning the delay in release was likely because they had to wait for the younger (in comparison to the Carters, Clintons, & Bushes) Obamas to become eligible before they could release it, because it certainly doesn't take 2-&-a-1/2 months to edit a short little video like this.

Hey look if they're eligible that's fine.  Everyone should get it.  PA can't get its act together and we have far too many olds and not enough supply.  Some states are doing way better than us.

It's probably more to due fact that they are a former POTUS & FLOTUS. Their high-ranking status puts them in a priority group.

Emphasis on "former:" their vaccination wouldn't be a part of the Continuity of Government operations, & so would only be permissible under the current DC guidelines if they had medical vulnerabilities or if they were given leftover doses that were already thawed & needed to be used within a certain amount of time or else they were going in the trash.

Obama also explicitly said back in Dec. that he'd only get it once he was eligible to do so, so I highly doubt he was just lying & opted to use his prestige & skip the line.
