Trump’s supporters booed and jeered when he revealed he got a booster shot and is pro-vaccination.
Trump’s supporters booed at an event Sunday when he announced he’d gotten the COVID-19 booster shot.
The audience cheered when Trump said he was opposed to vaccine mandates.
But the reaction changed when Trump and Bill O’Reilly said they were vaccinated and had boosters.
Supporters of former President Donald Trump booed and jeered when he announced on Sunday that he had received a COVID-19 booster shot and was in favor of the vaccine.
Trump made the comments during an appearance on the former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly’s “History Tour.” Newsweek first reported on the remarks.
At the event, Trump noted that the COVID-19 vaccine was developed under his administration as part of Operation Warp Speed. “Look, we did something that was historic, we saved tens of millions of lives worldwide when we, together, all of us, we got a vaccine done,” Trump said.
“This was going to ravage the country far beyond what it is right now. Take credit for it,” Trump said, adding later: “It’s great. What we’ve done is historic. Don’t let them take it away.”
The former president drew cheers from the crowd when he said that he was opposed to vaccine mandates, adding, “If you don’t want to take it, you shouldn’t be forced to take it. No mandates.”
But the crowd’s reaction shifted when Trump and O’Reilly revealed they were both vaccinated and had gotten booster shots.
According to Newsweek, after O’Reilly told the audience that he and Trump were vaccinated, he asked Trump if he received a booster shot, to which Trump replied, “Yes.”
“I got it, too,” O’Reilly said.
Newsweek reported that the crowd then started booing Trump and that he had to tamp down the audience’s reaction which appeared to be coming from one side of the arena.
“Don’t, don’t, don’t,” Trump said. “That’s all right. It’s a very tiny group up there.”
Trump’s comments over the weekend came a few months after he told reporters that he would not be getting a booster shot.
“I feel like I’m in good shape from that standpoint — I probably won’t” get one, he told The Wall Street Journal in a September interview. Later he added, “I’m not against it, but it’s probably not for me.”
Trump has repeatedly sent mixed messages about the COVID-19 vaccine to his base, a big chunk of which remains reluctant to get the shot.
