This is what real leadership is all about. I was asking myself just yesterday why Democrats never seem to get it. Conservatives won’t ever do the right thing no matter how reasonable you are and how nice you play. You can’t coddle them into taking the vaccine.
Now that there is a vaccine mandate those little bitty MAGA babies are literally going to get their medicine. I’d be happy to help administer the shots.
I am curious to know the breakdown, in numbers/percentages, what the compliance rate of those vaccinated by political affiliation.
Yeah, its a big mystery
The 2 groups with the lowest vaccination rates are blacks & Hispanics.

Not true. MAGA morons have the lowest vaccination rates.
And Tommie-poo, by my rough count, this is the 117th time you've made that comment. What racist motivations make you bleat this over and over and over? Even if it's true, so what?
We already went through this topic, didn't we?
Thread
Its the thread where I posted polls, news articles and links to actual state data....which was countered with Boilerman's query of his friends and some other research he didnt want to show anybody....oh and a whole lot of people crying "Liberal Boogeyman in the media"
Turns out the unvaccinated and the Ivermectin retards are largely one in the same group.
Nobody records the political affiliation of those who are vaccinated. Likewise, since which candidate(s) a person voted for are not recorded--ballots are effectively anonymous-- there's no direct way to correlate vaccinations with political affiliations.
There are, however, ways that can be inferred. One is to compare voting data to vaccination rates on a state or county level. Another is to examine the results of polls that asked about vaccine intentions and political affiliation.
One such poll by the Kaiser Foundation asked people if they planned to get vaccinated (this was in late June). Of those who said they would "wait and see," 45% identified as Republican, and 34% as Democrat. Of those who said they "definitely would not get the vaccine," 58% identified as Republican and 18% as Democrat.
As of the end of July, the combined vaccination rate in states that voted for Biden was 54%. The combined rate for Trump states was 41%
This suggests that all other things being equal, the ratio of vaccinated Democrats to vaccinated Republicans is about 11:8. Or to put it another way, out of every 100 vaccinated people, 54 are Democrats, 41 are Republicans, and 5 are not affiliated with either party.
The poll on vaccination intentions suggests that these proportions haven't significantly changed. Also, the recent Delta variant surges in red states suggest that vaccination rates there have remained low.

And surprise, surprise, all the conservitard propaganda outlets are in full-scream mode about this "unconstitutional" mandate and the "radical Democrats."
When reasoning fails with the children, sometimes you just have to say, "Because I said so."
Like you, Mark, I've gotten impatient with Democrats continuing to believe, despite all evidence to the contrary, that Republicans can be reasoned with. I'm glad to see Biden at last saying, "This is a national emergency, so you'll get the shot whether you like it or not." Sometimes, you just have to hold down the screaming toddler.
Leadership??? - Are you referring to the brain dead Biden's leadership dealing with 1) illegal alien stampede across the southern border, or 2) the Afghan fiasco? If that is "leadership" that you condone, then God help the United States.
I dont know what the status of government subsidized care is for hospitalized COVID vicitims. There was funding for that in the COVID legislation that was passed. An that was a good idea in the absence of a vaccine.
BUt now that we have a vaccine that subsidy should go away for unvaccinated adults. And so should Private Inusrance coverage. If dipshits want to play with voodoo medicine instead of getting vaccinated then go ahrad - but you're on your own with the hospital bills.
Probably requires legislation. Its worthwhile to pass...and hold showcase COngress members who would vote against it.
