Liberals have a long established rule that anything a conservative does is bad, even if a liberal did the same exact thing. Today that rule applies to Republican Senator Marco Rubio, who got the COVID-19 vaccine. According to liberals he “cut the line” and got vaccinated when other more deserving folks have to wait. AOC also got the vaccine but she’s a democrat so it’s obviously not outrageous.
Public health officials are demanding that political leaders get the COVID-19 vaccine so the people will see it as safe and effective. Here’s Marco Rubio doing his part:
I know I looked away from the needle
And yes, I know I need a tan
But I am so confident that the #Covid19 vaccine is safe & effective that I decided to take it myself pic.twitter.com/TQbog6fu7i

And here’s dimwit democrat Alexandria Ocasio Cortez doing the same thing, though she makes it much more about herself:

Try to guess which one of these lawmakers is outrageous. Okay, you probably already know. This is fake news CNN’s fake conservative Ana Navarro’s take on things:
Young, healthy Senator, who spoke at rallies packed w/thousands w/o masks, who supports Trump -who’s down-played COVID & mocked those who wear masks, is 1st to get vaccine while most medical workers, elderly & infirm Americans, wait.
Congratulations on ur privilege, @marcorubio. pic.twitter.com/gpm3PfNCd4— Ana Navarro-Cárdenas (@ananavarro) December 20, 2020
I checked Navarro’s timeline and there were no similar tweets tearing into AOC for having “privilege.”
Then, there was this ER doctor who was also selectively outraged at Marco Rubio:
I’m an ER doctor and despite trying, I have not yet been able to be vaccinated. https://t.co/xEdhs35tIK

For the record, Marco is 49 years old.
Elizabeth Warren (also with pics of getting vaccinated on Twitter) is 71.
There’s just a slight difference in risk there, folks.

Also for the record, AOC is 31 years old but she’s a democrat so there’s just a slight difference in standards for liberal outrage there, folks.
Again, this ER Doc’s timeline was checked and there were no rage tweets about AOC getting vaccinated ahead of other more deserving people.
There was also quite a bit of hate from random lefties, who accused Rubio of cheating:
I don’t get why you jumped the line to get vaccinated from a Dem hoax that affects virtually nobody. ESPECIALLY in Florida 🧐

Ate you a front line worker or in a nursing home or in a high risk group ? I have lupus sure would of loved to have gotten that dose.

That was my mother’s vaccine you took, you lou$e. I thought the virus was a hoax? Why bother jumping to the front of the line over the immunocompromised if you don’t think this virus is real and the whole situation is overblown?

I’m seeing tweets from exhausted front-line healthcare providers who are eager to get the vaccine.
I feel like I need to apologize to all of them because Benny Bible Verse, my useless putz of a senator, cut the line ahead of them.

AOC gets the vaccine and she’s a courageous empowered woman of color. Marco Rubio gets it and he’s killing people’s mothers and a Bible-thumping cheater.
This is the COIVID-19 edition of the liberal rule: Democrats good, Republicans bad.
