Wow what an outright lie. Fake news working hard with the devil to bring down DJT and his administration. Pure evil. Liberal Virus 🦠🤡💩 Libturds

There may not have been a formal & binding offer, but majority shareholder (80%) D. Hopp confirmed in an interview that Trump tried to get exclusive rights to the vaccine. He rejected this. Curiously, Mechinella was dismissed on March 12 due to a shareholder's intervention.

I can’t believe the media was wrong again and ran with a story with the flimsiest of foundations.

Libs heads explode

Fake news strikes again

Stop LYING JUST STOP HE DID TRY TO BUY IT STOP THE LIES.....

The offer probably came from John Boy.

Just another bit of fake news. Carry on.
