When you are Joe Biden, it’s probably not a good idea to go after a Super Bowl-winning quarterback like Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
However, Biden did just that in the middle of December while touring storm-ravaged Kentucky, no less.
The President encountered two Green Bay Packers fans who lost their homes at the time and told them “God love you, and tell that quarterback he’s got to get the vaccine.”
While touring KY tornado damage, Biden joked to a GPB fan to tell @AaronRodgers12 he to go get his V. 🤦♀️He has Natural immunity! A tornado flattened my house, killing my dog & cat in 91’. U don’t make jokes like this. 🤡PLUS why would he get the V now?! pic.twitter.com/yooDyE8VQ8

After currently leading his team to the divisional round of the playoffs, Rodgers responded to Biden during an ESPN interview.
“When the president of the United States says, ‘This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated,’ it’s because him and his constituents, which, I don’t know how there are any if you watch any of his attempts at public speaking, but I guess he got 81 million votes,” Rodgers shot back.
Rodgers continued, “But when you say stuff like that, and then you have the CDC, which, how do you even trust them, but then they come out and talk about 75% of the COVID deaths have at least four comorbidities.”
“And you still have this fake White House set saying that this is the pandemic of the unvaccinated, that’s not helping the conversation,” Rodgers insisted.
At that point in the article, an “editor’s note” was inserted to clarify that the CDC study found that in a group of 1.2 million people who were fully vaccinated between December 2020 and October 2021, 36 of them had a death associated with COVID-19 — and that of those 36 people, 28, or about 78%, had at least four of eight risk factors.
The article also attempted to paint sports journalist Molly Knight in a sympathetic light after she had gotten eviscerated by Rodgers and Packer fans after calling him out in a tweet.
